Special Resources
Close connections between faculty and students are at the heart of the College of Charleston academic experience.
Our goal is to maintain this point of pride to the extent possible while also providing a safe and healthy environment for all students, faculty and staff. Department chairs, faculty, and academic advisors are working closely with students to optimize their class schedules and environments. The following are resources for all faculty:
- Academic Calendar
- Attendance Policy
- Syllabi Policy
- COVID FAQs for Faculty
- COVID FAQs for Student Academics
- COVID Resources - Back on the Bricks
- If your face-to-face class is moved to an online format due to a positive student case of COVID-19: please reference the Positive Student case of COVID-19 Sample Letter that you may use to communicate with your students (faculty authentication required).
- Accomodations for faculty on tenure track related to COVID-19: The 2021-2022 joint memo on tenure, promotion, renewal and third-year review outlines the accommodations in place for major faculty reviews. Faculty are also reminded of the College’s standing tenure clock modification policy and the April 3, 2020 memo on pandemic-associated clock modifications. Faculty members considering requesting clock modifications should review all three documents, consult with their department chair or academic program director, and be mindful of deadlines for requesting clock modifications. The deadline was July 1, 2021 for candidates with mandatory reviews scheduled in 2021-2022.
