Faculty Guide

About the OFD Faculty Guides: These pages serve as a guide for full- and part-time faculty and provide an introduction to their basic professional responsibilities. They are not designed as an official statement of either policies or procedures. These guides also are not meant to supersede the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the Board of Trustees and the California Faculty Association or established rules and regulations that govern the system, the University, or the faculty. In case of any conflict between the contents of these guides and the provisions of the primary sources, the primary sources prevail.
