[Faculty] Faculty Senate Meeting Agenda and Discussion Points

[Goyal, Ravi - (goyalr)]

Dear CALS faculty,

Our apologies for the delay in sending you an update from the Faculty Senate’s last meeting. It’s been a trying time for us all. Before reporting on the Faculty Senate, we did want to make sure that all CALS faculty know about the listening session hosted by the Faculty Chair and Vice Chair that will be held this Monday, Oct. 17th, from 5-6:30 pm. The email describing the event is attached, and faculty can register for the event here:  https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAlcuiorDwrEt31OBiThblUDt_05Ts_WCEO

Here is what you need to know about the last Faculty Senate meeting:
Most of the meeting was taken up by the discussion of the Research, Innovation & Impact (RII) Center’s representation in the Faculty Senate. The discussion focused on Faculty bylaws and whether the representation of RII was needed given that they are already included in the Common College. The Faculty Senate voted on whether to allow additional senate seats for RII or refer the topic to the Academic Personnel Policy Committee (APPC) to understand faculty representation in colleges. Senators voted to refer this to APPC.

The next Faculty Senate meeting is Monday, Nov. 7th, 3-5 pm. You can attend via zoom (registration link: https://arizona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_dj2cU8N3QkObpFctGv-BDQ) or in person (LAW Room 164).

Also, just a reminder: You can give us anonymous comments/feedback on any faculty-related issue in this Qualtrics Survey: https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4ZXIgJJOLxYVaD4
