Faculty Resource Guide
The Faculty Resource Guide is distributed to new faculty at New Faculty Orientation. The guide contains useful information on policies, guidelines, and services offered at SF State as well as information ranging from the California State University system to life in San Francisco in general.
The Faculty Resource Guide is available in both an accessible PDF version suitable for quick searching and printing as well as an accessible web-based version. The PDF version is identical to the version distributed to new faculty at New Faculty Orientation while the web-based version matches the layout of this site.
Though the guide is primarily aimed at incoming faculty, the information contained within is useful to all faculty of SF State.
