Welcome to the exciting world of teaching at Highline College!
The New Faculty Handbook is designed to introduce you to the procedures and policies you may need to know as a Highline faculty member. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact your appropriate department coordinator, or division chair.
Your department coordinator is your strongest link with the College. Communicate with your coordinator regarding teaching assignments, curriculum, textbooks, grading, student evaluations, and any other concerns you have about the instruction you do. Unable to reach your coordinator? Try the division chair or your faculty administrative assistant.
We hope your experiences at Highline will be positive and rewarding. Again, please feel free to contact my office with suggestions, concerns and questions you may have.
