This document presents the College's financial plan for operations during the coming fiscal year. In response to the climate of economic constraint, the College has made every effort to allocate resources wisely. As we continue to improve and expand our educational facilities, we have prepared this budget mindful of the need to equip, support, and enhance the educational programs and services which are at the heart of our mission. We shall continue to do all that we can to analyze and improve both our programs and our services and to maintain our place as one of the country's premier community colleges. These will be exciting, challenging, and rewarding times for Oakton as we move forward in the 21st century. The integration of outreach, recruitment, admissions, and alumni will enable us to support a unified marketing approach and give Oakton an enhanced presence in the district we serve. Technological advances, in particular, have opened up opportunities not even imaginable ten years ago. Our substantial efforts in the area of information technology are evidence of our commitment to capitalize on those opportunities to improve the tools we use to bring services to our students and to the communities of our district. -

Finding Part-Time Teaching Opportunities
Finding Part-Time Teaching Opportunities A Guide for Graduate Students and Postdocs OVERVIEW This resource provides UChicago graduate students and postdocs with guidance on finding part-time teaching opportunities, particularly in the Chicago area. UChicago graduate students, postdocs, and alumni are welcome to schedule one-on-one consultations with staff from UChicagoGRAD and the Chicago Center for Teaching to receive feedback on their job search strategies and job- related documents, including CVs and teaching statements. To schedule, log into GRAD Gargoyle (gradgargoyle.uchicago.edu) with your CNetID and select “Advising Appointments.” This guide focuses on three strategies for obtaining part-time teaching: (1) checking official job postings, (2) emailing potential employers, and (3) networking. 1. CHECK OFFICIAL JOB POSTINGS A. Search the websites of places where you would be interested in teaching. Many universities have pages displaying current openings or sites dedicated to handling job postings and applications. A list of colleges and universities in the Chicago area is provided on pages 7-8. B. Search larger portals where many colleges and universities publish job listings. HERC (Higher Ed Recruitment Consortium): https://www.hercjobs.org Higher Ed Jobs: https://www.higheredjobs.com/ Chronicle Vitae: https://chroniclevitae.com/job_search/new H-Net (Humanities and Social Sciences): https://www.h-net.org/jobs/home.php Diverse Issues in Higher Education, Diverse Jobs: http://diversejobs.net/ Professional Association Websites: Put those membership dues to good use and take advantage of the job postings and career services provided by many professional associations (e.g. AAA, AAR, SAA, AHA). 1 2. EMAIL POTENTIAL EMPLOYERS If you have a particular set of schools where you would like to work, but you haven’t located any specific job listings there, you can send a “cold-call” email introducing yourself, your academic background, and classes you could teach in the event that a position opens up. -
