Faculty Affairs

Dr. Nichole Barta, Acting Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs

Faculty affairs serves as the backbone for a healthy and thriving academic community, allowing faculty to focus on their core missions of teaching, research, and service, all deeply intertwined with the institution's Jesuit, Catholic, and humanistic identity. This dedication to faculty well-being and professional growth directly translates into a more enriching and impactful educational experience for students, as highly supported faculty are better equipped to embody cura personalis – care for the whole person – in their mentorship and instruction. Through this comprehensive support of faculty, Gonzaga ensures that its educational mission extends far beyond the classroom, creating a community where academic excellence and humanistic values unite to shape tomorrow's leaders..
