  • Schedule students in rotations, with instructor input, using calendar from Ferris State University.
  • Schedule physicals, orientation, and/or other necessary arrangements for beginning clinical experience.
  • Oversee clinical experience - meet with instructors and students regularly.
  • Keep files of grades and all documentation as to how grades were derived.
  • Contact appropriate on-campus Education Coordinator concerning all problems, no matter how minor.
  • Establish policies for handling problems with students.
  • Establish absentee policy with FSU approval.
  • Attend clinical adjunct faculty meetings.
