Faculty Council of the City Colleges of Chicago

Viggy Alexandersson

President of Faculty Council

Faculty Council represents the faculty in all matters of general academic policy, such as curriculum, program development, academic freedom, and professional development.
Welcome to the official webpage of the Faculty Council of the City Colleges of Chicago (FC4)!
 
Here, you will find information about issues relevant to higher education faculty as well as institutional resources and FC4 position statements on topics that most directly impact CCC faculty. Here, you will also find news that celebrates faculty initiative and achievement. As your faculty representatives, we hope this page will serve as a significant resource to all CCC faculty.
