Faculty Senate

Mission Statement

“The success of any educational institution depends on effective interaction between the administration, the faculty, and the students. The faculty carries out the institution's primary function, the education of students. Moreover, the proximity to both students and administration puts the faculty in an advantageous position to align student needs with institutional success.  
 
Therefore, it is prudent and necessary that the faculty be engaged in the institution's planning, policy-making, and decision-making processes. In order to promote the cause of education, fulfill the mission and goals of the college, improve communication among the faculty members, and maintain professional relations with the administration, the faculty of Midland College hereby establish the Midland College Faculty Senate.”
