Committees

Shared Governance provides all College constituencies with a voice in decision-making processes at the College. Representation from all parts of the College is very important. We are stronger and better when we work together.

Currently, faculty are participating in Shared Governance at higher levels than in many years. All faculty are invited to participate and we want to especially encourage participation from noncredit and non-Ocean campus faculty. Your perspective is important; we cannot make the best decisions to serve our community without your input.

To be appointed to a Shared Governance committee, faculty must request it through the Academic Senate Executive Council. Requesting is easy:

1. Check current vacancies

2. Complete an interest form

3. Return it to Academic Senate, E202
