1.0 Introduction

These faculty regulations are derived from legislation by the faculty and the Faculty Executive Committee, the By-Laws of Scripps College, and policies which, in collaboration with the other Claremont Colleges, have been agreed to by the Council of The Claremont Colleges. The regulations and procedures in this handbook are set forth for the information and guidance of all faculty members at Scripps College.

The faculty, through the Faculty Executive Committee and the Appointments, Promotions and Tenure Committee, shall be the principal body responsible for the Faculty Regulations. Additions or changes in them may also originate from other bodies within the college or intercollegiate community such as the President’s office, the Council of The Claremont Colleges, or the Board of Trustees of Scripps College. Changes or additions must be enacted by the faculty.

Any faculty member who has suggestions for revision of the Faculty Regulations should submit them to the Dean of the Faculty or to the Faculty Executive Committee.
