Faculty Handbook

The Faculty Handbook provides information of interest to our full-time and part-time faculty.  It summarizes some of the practices and procedures that have been developed in order to support the faculty and to help them in the performance of their jobs.

A downloadable copy of the handbook is available in Outlook Public Folders in the Faculty Information folder. Or, click here to download the RTF document.

If you have any questions or comments about the handbook, contact Mary Miller.
