Abstract | This narrative inquiry captures the stories of three newly-hired professors struggling to assimilate into Metro Community College's social environment. My work first presents Samantha's metaphor: a sandbox campus wherein employees work in isolation, building individual sandcastles. This metaphor evokes an imaginative way to interpret and communicate social isolation which leads to understanding how new faculty negotiate personal and workplace conflicts. I then weave ideas stemming from the literature on faculty development into a discussion centered on dissonance between faculty and administrators. From this point, I show how storytelling is a viable way to help socialize new faculty into the college community and offer the reader a few possibilities for implementing narrative inquiry into faculty development programs.
