Process and Resources

With the exciting growth of 肉肉传媒, a taskforce was created to identify innovative office solutions that maximize campus resources. Through the work of the committee, we learned remote workspace options are preferable to some faculty, so the Faculty Flex Workspace Program was established. 

The program is managed at the college level to ensure each individual college鈥檚 goals are met and to provide a positive experience for participants. Because each discipline is very different, not all faculty will be eligible to participate.

How It Works

Step 1鈥�:鈥�Request to participate by completing the鈥疨rogram Participation Request鈥�

Step 2:鈥�鈥疶he form will route to your college for approval鈥�

Step 3:鈥�疘f approved, work with your college to procure any equipment 苍别别诲别诲鈥�

Step 4:鈥�鈥疌omplete the鈥疶ake Technology Home Approval Form鈥痶o document the location of your University-owned assets

Note: Participation in the program is subject to change based on the needs of participants or the college.

On-Campus Workspace Options

For faculty who do not have a dedicated office, there are several places to work while on campus. Please ask your home department about spaces available in your college. On the 肉肉传媒 campus there is an interdisciplinary faculty hoteling space located on the 3rd floor of the Academic Learning Center. We are actively working on identifying a similar faculty hoteling area on the Marietta campus. We expect this to be open by Fall 2023 semester. In addition, faculty can use KSU鈥檚 Event Management System (EMS) to book space to conduct a private meeting.
