Do you need to capitalize the word faculty?

Whether you capitalize "faculty" depends on the context:

Capitalize "faculty" when:

* It refers to a specific group of teachers at an institution: For example, "The Faculty of Arts at the University of Toronto."

* It is part of a proper name: For example, "The Faculty of Medicine at the University of Washington."

* It is used as a title: For example, "Professor Smith is a member of the Faculty."

Do not capitalize "faculty" when:

* It refers to the teaching profession in general: For example, "The university is looking for new faculty members."

* It is used as a synonym for "teachers": For example, "The faculty are responsible for educating the students."

Here's a simple way to think about it:

* Specific group or title: Capitalize

* General term: Don't capitalize
