Accommodations for Students

The Office of Accessibility Resources promotes access and equity for all students at Carleton. They value full access to the wide range of academic, organizational, residential, and work opportunities for Carleton students, regardless of disability status. And they aim to be a catalyst for ensuring equal learning and working opportunities for students with disabilities.

Campus Governance

All faculty should familiarize themselves with the campus governance structure. Responsibility for the operation of the College is imposed by law upon the Board of Trustees. The Board must assign the functions to a range of administrative officers, faculty, and other individuals or groups.

At Carleton, much of the policy regarding the life of the College falls naturally into two categories: educational policy, which is established by the faculty; and other matters of campus governance, on which policy is formulated by the College Council. Faculty exercise that responsibility in their monthly meeting, under the direction of their elected President, with the assistance of a standing committee, known as the Education and Curriculum Committee (ECC).
