What are the differences between the functions of the teachers union and the academic Senate?
The Cuesta College Academic Senate (Senate) and the Cuesta College Federation of Teachers (CCFT) have an agreement in order to promote mutual understanding between the two organizations and among the faculty. The purpose of this agreement is to clarify their separate, but sometimes overlapping, functions and responsibilities and to establish procedures for consultation when responsibilities overlap. The parties to this agreement affirm their mutual commitment to academic quality, to student success, to faculty governance, and to improved working conditions for the faculty.
