IP 1.08 Substitutes for Faculty Absences

If a faculty member knows that he or she will be missing a day, all attempts to schedule a substitute instructor shall be taken. If illness or hospitalization causes a faculty member to miss more than a week of instruction, the Department Chair shall appoint a substitute teacher.  The substitute teacher may or may not be a member of the current teaching faculty.  Rate of pay for the substitute shall be determined by the Academic Department Chair and the Vice President of Academic Affairs, but is usually at the adjunct lecture hourly rate.

When I started attending NJC I was blown away by the compassion of the professors.

As a student, I have loved how much the teachers care about you. They want you to succeed in whatever you want to do and are always willing to help. It makes it much easier to cope with change and classes that aren't your strong suit.

My business professors are great and I have learned a lot so far in my short time here.
