For the first time, we are moving toward a single Employee Handbook for all non-faculty employees of The College. The handbook is designed to work in alignment with the Vassar College Policy Library as well as collective barganing agreements. By creating one employee handbook we hope to increase transparency and access to information for all employees.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will be holding an open comment period between now and July 1. During this time we encourage everyone to explore the new handbook, share feedback using the anonymous form within the handbook, and attend an information session.
