Faculty Handbook
The College of Life Sciences and Agriculture has prepared this Advising Handbook for advisors with the intention of clarifying existing policies used within the University. This Handbook will be reviewed as needed in an attempt to ensure the accuracy of this material. We are open to any suggestions you may have regarding this handbook or the addition of any material which you feel may be pertinent.
This document is intended to aid faculty in their advising duties. The Associate Dean's Office of the College is, as usual, more than willing to provide any assistance required. Please contact Suzanne Booska (2-1451) or Kimberly Babbitt (2-1450) for further assistance.
