300.900 SCHOLARSHIP, RESEARCH & ARTISTIC CREATION POLICY
The primary responsibility of Wenatchee Valley College faculty is teaching. This is
a characteristic of community colleges that sets them apart from universities and
makes them special learning environments for students. Scholarship, research and artistic
creation by faculty and students are, however, encouraged. To the extent possible
within college resources, these activities are supported by the college through faculty
professional development funds, sabbatical leaves, release time, and special arrangements.
