The charge of the Hartnell College Council (HCC) is to make recommendations to the Superintendent/President in matters that involve and affect the college as a whole, including Administrative Procedures (APs) and Board Policies (BPs).  Additionally, the HCC is responsible for establishing operating procedures and processes for all college governance councils, as well as codifying District processes not codified elsewhere using Operational Memoranda.

The Hartnell College Council focuses on issues affecting the entire college and can generate requests for the councils. Councils work independently and only need to bring action items to the HCC for initiatives affecting the entire District.

The Hartnell College Council meets the second Friday of each month during the academic year, 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. The meeting format is hybrid and held in person at Building E, Room 112. For those who wish to join remotely may access the meeting at the Zoom link noted on the agenda.
