Florida Southern College is a regional liberal arts college affiliated with the United Methodist Church and is particularly focused on teaching and engaged learning. I will discuss my experiences as a second year faculty member in a young department which is, in many ways, in transition.  I have been heavily involved in departmental and college-wide efforts to grow and support the natural sciences and to increase research activity.  Particular mention of faculty duties outside those traditionally associated with teaching and research will be made, and I will offer additional perspectives from having already been involved with three faculty searches.
