Committee Assignments

Faculty members can expect to be assigned to at least one major standing committee of the Faculty or the College Council. Some may be asked to serve on more than one such committee, and some members of the faculty will be asked to serve on ad hoc committees, panels or commissions formed by the administration to deal with special circumstances. Faculty members are expected to participate actively in the work of these committees and should not absent themselves from their meetings without good reason.

Faculty members who feel unduly burdened by their committee work or who feel that committee work is interfering with the satisfactory fulfillment of their other responsibilities to the College, should discuss the matter with the Dean of the College who will make every effort to reduce the burden appropriately.
