The Kilgore College Faculty Association includes all full-time faculty members. Its purpose is to strengthen communication among faculty, provide opportunities for professional growth, and ensure faculty voices are represented in college governance.
The Faculty Senate, authorized by the Kilgore College Board of Trustees in accordance with Texas Education Code § 51.3522, serves as the representative body of the Faculty Association. The Senate’s role is advisory only: it provides a structured means for faculty to communicate recommendations to the College administration and Board of Trustees.
In fulfilling this role, the Faculty Senate:
Represents the perspectives of faculty in matters affecting teaching, learning, and professional life;
Serves as a forum for the exchange of ideas and information;
Provides input to administration on policies and procedures; and
Conducts its business in compliance with the Texas Open Meetings Act to ensure transparency and accountability.
