Extended Orientation
In an effort to provide our new full-time faculty as well as our new full and part-time staff with a better orientation to the institution and an opportunity to integrate more fully into the college community, our orientation program has been restructured beginning in Fall 2007. It is composed of five parts, spread out over several months. Personnel hired during the spring and summer terms are part of the fall cohort.
