At its regular December meeting, or such subsequent regular meeting as is practical, the board of trustees, upon recommendation from the president and after such conference with faculty and other staff as provided for in the college's bargained agreements, will adopt the college calendar(s) for the ensuing academic year(s). The president will solicit comments from all college staff regarding revisions to the calendar(s) prior to completing such recommendations to the board. Such calendar(s) will specify for each term the days available for instruction, the days which will constitute the final examination period (if any is scheduled), the days which will be designated as the college holidays, and other such dates as the board determines shall be of general use. The calendar for each academic year will begin with the summer term. The calendar(s) adopted as outlined above will be published in the college catalog and will be available in the offices of admissions and registration during regular college business hours.
