HLTH Faculty Resources
The information contained below is intended for use by faculty and staff in the School of Health Sciences only. While much of the information is drawn directly from University policies and procedures, some of it is very School-specific and other Schools may do things differently in some cases. That said, we hope you find the information below useful and helpful. As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the HLTH office.
General Information
If it is necessary to cancel a class, please notify the HLTH office, preferably by email (shsfacultywork@stockton.edu). Please notify your class via email and a cancellation sign will be posted on the classroom door with any additional information you request. Class cancellations for personal reasons will be counted as sick time. If you are out for more than one class day (e.g., Monday & Wednesday) the intervening day will also be recorded as sick time. If you intend for the class to run as scheduled in your absence, please make every effort to have a program colleague cover the class for you.
For all absences, please complete the Faculty/Staff Absence form and submit it to the HLTH office, either as an email attachment (cc Brenda Sterling) or in person.
Initial classroom assignments are made by the Office of the Registrar and are subject to change for at least the first few weeks after the schedule is made viewable. If you have specific classroom requests or believe there will be an issue with your rooms as assigned, please notify Amanda Allen in the HLTH office by email. We will make every effort to ensure that your rooms meet the needs of your classes, but due to space limitations, it may not always be possible to fulfill every request.
Please do remember to check your rooms before the start of the semester, so that we can minimize issues once the semester starts. You are more than welcome to make arrangements to switch rooms with other instructors on your own, but please notify the office immediately so that we can maintain the accuracy of the class schedule online and make sure there are no unforeseen issues.
Requests for lab reservations can be made by emailing Amanda Allen in the HLTH office, or can be sent directly to the office of Information Technology Services by filling out their . Regular or recurring lab reservations are best made prior to the start of the semester. Please note that there is a separate process (internally for I.T.S.) for scheduling labs during the final/extended week, and that regular lab assignments may not carry over. Lab requests for the final week should be made as early as possible in the same manner as a regular lab request, but labs will not be assigned until later in the semester.
Routine copy requests should be submitted two business days in advance. You can email the HLTH office (shsfacultywork@stockton.edu) for any copy requests, or use the work request forms in the copy room.

Whenever possible, please make copies on the front and back side of the page in order to save paper. (For large or more complex jobs - please submit a request, at least a week in advance.) Please consult a HLTH administrative assistant if you need assistance with your copy requests. If at all possible, go green and digital.
All HLTH faculty should be connected to the "HealthScience_ColorCanon" printer located in the back room of the HLTH Administrative Office (HSC 215). If you do not see this option from your office computer, please call the office 609-652-4501 or the Help Desk 609-652-4501. This printer can be used at any time as needed.

Scholarly Activity Reports
Information on scholarly and professional activity formerly reported for each Board of Trustees meeting and disseminated in Board Books is now collected four times throughout the year and published in an annual Scholarly and Professional Activity report.
The Center for Teaching and Learning Design has created the Scholarly and Professional Activity Reference Page, which provides detailed information on the Chicago style citation formats and the categories for submissions.
The activity reported must meet the following guidelines:
- Individual, rather than office accomplishments
- External, rather than internal (Stockton) events, where the participant had a role beyond attending or performing their daily activities
- Accomplishments that are directly connected to our strategic themes
- Staff and faculty activity should be submitted to your School liaison (Kai Wilson) in the correct citation format, using the Chicago Manual of Style
Teaching and Precepting Resources
You can quickly and easily email all of the 91Ƶ in a particular class from your Stockton email account using the following format - "semester-course@stockton.edu". For example, if you are trying to email HLTH 1101-001 in the Fall 2025 semester, you would use the address, "fall2025-hlth1101001@stockton.edu". When emailing summer classes, be sure to use the correct section number (101 vs. 001).
You can also email 91Ƶ directly from the "summary class list" online. At the bottom of the list there is an "Email class" link. Clicking it will open a new message with all of the 91Ƶ' email addresses in the "bcc:" field. There are also links to email each student individually.
The final week of the semester is designed so that every class with regularly scheduled face-to-face meetings gets one last two-hour meeting for final exams, projects, presentations, etc. Please refer to the Final Week schedules on the Calendars page so that you can plan accordingly. Please note that meetings for hybrid classes are scheduled a little differently than regular face-to-face classes. Those meeting patterns are described below the schedule grid. Additionally, computer lab reservations do not carry over from the regular class schedule and must be reserved separately (please refer to the Computer Labs section under "General Info" above).
Instructors can make grade changes for the current or past two semesters using the "Grade Change" link under "Faculty Advising Tools" on the Faculty tab in the Portal. Once a change is submitted, both the instructor and student will receive a confirmation email. The change will be visible on the student's transcript and the "Grade Summary" screen but not on the "Final Grades" screen. Changes can only be made to A - F, I and X grades. For changes in other situations, please contact the Assistant Dean or the Office of the Registrar (registrar@stockton.edu).
To assign an Incomplete in place of a grade, the "Agreement for Completion of Coursework" form (also available on the Faculty tab under "Faculty Resources") must be filled out, signed by both the instructor and student, and submitted to the Assistant Dean for approval. The form will be sent to the Office of the Registrar (who will input the "I" grade) and a copy will remain on file in the HLTH office.
In order to offer an Independent Study to a student, both the instructor and student must complete the downloadable form (also available on the Faculty tab under "Faculty Resources"). Once complete, the student must bring the form to the HLTH office for approval (and GENS if it is for "G" credit or has an attribute attached), then to the Bursar's Office and the Office of the Registrar (in that order). A copy of the form will be kept on file in the HLTH office.
All major and minor changes/declarations must be submitted digitally. To make a request, the student should log into their Go Stockton portal. Access their Student Services tab > Student Tools > Change of Major/Minor. Students interested in any of the Health Sciences majors are subject to review (specific math scores needed).
If a student wishes to change their preceptor, faculty must complete the "," also located in the portal on the Faculty tab under Faculty Advising Tools, in order to add the student to their roster.
To make adjustments to a student's degree evaluation (Degree Works), the "Degree Works Adjustment" form (also available on the Academic Advising website) should be completed and signed by the student's preceptor, approved and signed by the Program Chair and Assistant Dean, and forwarded to the Academic Advising office.
