Handbooks
Describes College policies and procedures formulated in the Faculty Code. It provides information on implementing the academic rules and policies, and includes resources that will help you guide and support your students.
This is a great resource that collects most of the information that you might ever need (at least for advising purposes) in one place. We hope you will find the Advising Handbook a useful resource in your advising work.
The online LSA Course Guide contains course descriptions written by instructors of classes to be offered in a specific term. Instructors are asked:
- to begin with a statement of the subjects (topics, themes, methods).
- to include the intended audience and any recommended special background that is not already listed in course prerequisites.
- to indicate the basis of student evaluation (exams, papers, etc.)
- to state method(s) of instruction (lecture, lab, discussion).
- to mention texts which will be required.
