Everyone understands the weight a practicing professional has on the
classroom. Appropriately, they are given higher regard and respect from students and their
advice is often received in a different light than that of the professor (even if it’s the exact same
advice). Well, what if the professor is a practicing professional? This panel explores how to
maintain an active engagement in professional opportunities, balancing paid client
opportunities with what scholarship institutions expect for promotion and tenure, and case
studies from faculty on the intersection of freelance work and pedagogy.
Moderator: Tyler Christian Welker, Huntington University
