1:57:15
I can email it to you through the submit this.
1:57:26
Most faculty fact, most likely go out of their way not to have this information because It is such a burden when you signal that you are for a lot of faculty, they do not signal that they want to advise students.
1:57:47
I'd say this this is horrible to say I realize.
1:57:50
Because they don't wanna signal to students that I have knowledge that I can give to you on how to use x class for y class.
1:57:58
We're supposed to just outside of our department contacts, we're supposed to just send people to academic advising.
1:58:04
But also, there's some there are handfuls of people who have spent a lot of time basically acquiring the the kind of knowledge that some faculty have and that some of the professional advisers have.
1:58:21
But like, there that those are handfuls of us that have done that.
1:58:26
And it's not systematic.
1:58:28
And what you would need is workload credit and then agreement to have that workload credit have that training.
1:58:44
Absolutely.
1:58:45
Faculty.
1:58:46
Departments and programs absolutely require a faculty to post that as part of assessment and part of our accreditation Okay.
