Dear Campus Community, As of April 30th, the application period for the Voluntary Separation Incentive Program (VSIP) has officially closed.  Each of our 40 colleagues who have chosen to participate has unique ties to our campus and varying separation dates. Because participation in the VSIP is a personal choice, any individual announcements will be made at appropriate times in coordination with the participants and their supervisors. A comprehensive list of participants will not be published due to these individual coordination efforts.

We want your feedback! Cal Poly Humboldt is committed to continuous improvement, including our internal guidelines and processes for campus space reservation and event planning. The divisions of Enrollment Management & Student Success and Administrative Affairs are collaborating to lead a refinement effort that kicks off this week by soliciting your feedback.
