Faculty Affairs / Recruitment

College Liaisons

An initiative supported by the college deans and Provost, the College Liaison program is designed to strengthen the process of recruiting excellent faculty members to Virginia Tech. College Liaisons support the faculty recruitment efforts in each college by meeting individually with candidates to discuss Virginia Tech’s dual career resources, extend-the-tenure-clock policies, modified duties polices, commitment to diversity, community resources, and to refer candidates to appropriate resources for additional information. The role of the Liaison is designed to meet the unique needs of each college. In some colleges, in addition to meeting with candidates, the College Liaison may also help shape search processes, assist in writing position announcements, and answer questions from search committee members.
