Warren Wilson College has historically practiced a unique and collaborative approach to college governance. Open communication is key to building trust, inclusivity, and effectiveness in our governance system. Gathering all campus constituencies together—students, staff, and faculty—we seek to provide a balanced structure for addressing policy questions, undertaking program development, ensuring effective communications, and solving problems together. Our governance framework provides a platform for all points of view, creates an ideal learning milieu, fosters school unity and pride, and generates sound decisions and advice.
This information on the College’s governance is intended to be read as an abbreviated, illustrative description and does not include the exact language or detail of the documents and bylaws that guide our process.
