The Office of Academic and Faculty Affairs supports the academic mission and curriculum of the Colleges and upholds the stewardship of academic programs and support services. The Office also assists the faculty in their implementation of the curriculum, their scholarly and professional development, and their integral role in developing the culture and expectations of the Colleges through faculty governance. Our mission is to provide the resources and structure to provide a high quality educational experience for HWS students and to support faculty colleagues in their research and scholarship.
