1.7 Intercollegiate Faculty Council

The Intercollegiate Faculty Council (IFC) is composed of the Executive Committee chairs or comparable faculty representatives from each institution.

The function of the IFC is to:

1. facilitate communication on relevant issues among the faculties of the Claremont Colleges;
2. improve faculty coordination of and provide faculty input on central programs and services, shared academic resources, and shared facilities;
3. facilitate communication among the faculties and administrations of the Claremont Colleges, including the Claremont University Consortium;
4. determine agenda items for IFC meetings; and
5. report to the faculties of The Claremont Colleges through the minutes of Faculty Executive or Administrative Committees and/or through faculty meeting reports.

At the beginning of every fall semester, the IFC will meet to elect a chair and set its preliminary agenda. That meeting will be called by the IFC convener, who will be named by the IFC members at the end of the previous spring semester.
