Which colleges lost tenure-track faculty, and which gained non-tenure-track

WSU-wide, tenure-track (TT) faculty fell from 368 to 311 (−57) while non-tenure-track (NTT) rose from 153 to 210 (+57) between FY22 and FY27. That net swap is not evenly spread across the six colleges — some lost TT lines without gaining NTT to match; one grew NTT sharply with almost no TT change. Each card below is one college.
