The CBA outlines a clear path to promotion to Teaching Associate Professor and eventually Teaching Professor. Our Architectural Studies program is thriving! We offer both a B.A. and B.S. in Arch. Studies. This position will teach mostly Arch Theory (no studio requirement).

Pitt has a unionized faculty, and the CBA governs contracts for positions like this. After an initial renewal in the second year, the position goes into “presumptive renewal” on a five-year time horizon.

If my therapist does this, there will be hell to pay: "Ms. Swank uses A.I. to take unstructured notes from a visit and turn them into SOAP notes... (It stands for Subjective, Objective, Assessment and Plan — a way of summarizing the visit and the next steps.)"
