As long as you were called (none / 0) (#89)

back, that's what counts.:-)  You must have had good student evals and have been a good colleague, if parttime.  Not a pain-in-the-neck like some I know who complain that they teach as much as some faculty  . . . and entirely ignore that teaching is usually considered less than half (40 percent, often) of a fulltime faculty job, with all else that they do.

Re good student evals, they won't buy a cup of coffee, not even at knockoffs of Starbucks.  But they make it all worthwhile, Art Star!

It was a smaller dept at the time. I actually helped map out some of the program requirements when I was a student there and the first Grad from it. After I moved to NYC, I would run into some of my students here and was lucky enough to hire a couple.

I'm usually pretty easy to get along with in colleague situations. And I enjoy teaching. and Starbucks wasn't 'born' yet! lol!~ The pat on the back was good enough for me :)
