Office Hours



Faculty are expected to keep two hours of office hours per week for every class taught. They are asked to schedule and distribute the hours for the convenience of students who generally have four other classes and often work part-time. When scheduling office hours, faculty should allow at least 10 minutes before and after class to travel from the classroom. It is recommended to schedule late afternoon or evening office hours if teaching night classes. Office hours should be posted on the office door and noted on the syllabus. Faculty members are expected to be on campus a minimum of three full days or 24 hours a week. A faculty member who needs to cancel office hours on a particular day is asked to post a notice on the office door or ask the department's administrative assistant to do so.
