Procedures for dean selection The meeting began with general discussion among members present regarding the time frame for seating dean search committees and reports of confusion among units about the search procedures. An all-call email was supposed to have been sent detailing procedures that would then be discussed at last week’s Unit Councils, however the initial email never got sent out. Members present also discussed the fact that the Executive Council did not have time to review the process before it was distributed to the units although there was general consensus that the process for selecting deans was a good plan. Further conversations on the overall decision making environment of the college may take place at the Executive Council retreat on Monday, May 21, 2007. [See also Item #4] Action Item: President Mercer and Provost Barnett have been invited to Thursday’s In-Service to discuss the dean selection process. 2. Writing at ТщЖЙДЋУН Provost Barnett and Dean Jennefer Mazza joined the Executive Council to provide additional information on the aspect of writing at ТщЖЙДЋУН. The dissolution of the Division of Basic Studies (DBS) split writing into several areas, as was previously discussed with the writing faculty. The implementation of CEP has impacted the number of writing intensive (WI) courses offered by the College and continues to be a resource issue. Provost Barnett reiterated that CAS reports to her office and she would like to see all areas of developmental and enhancement efforts under one “umbrella.” An evaluation of CAS by faculty was suggested to provide feedback. Dean Mazza has requested a faculty line to be the convener of writing and teach College English courses rather than a Director of Writing proposed by the writing faculty. A revision of the job description for the director of CAS may also incorporate new duties. Reading, math, and placement testing were also discussed by those present. 3. SGA letter to administration regarding tuition increases The Student Government Association has sent a letter to the administration expressing their concerns with the proposed 6% tuition increase that will be needed to balance the budget. They strongly suggest an increase of only 3% in regards to last year’s 8% tuition increase. Provost Barnett mentioned the need for an across the board 2% cut on all operating budgets. Budget concerns are a college wide issue and further conversations will take place to suggest alternative funding sources, fund-raising efforts, revenue generating summer programs, and the issue with declining state support. 4. Procedures for dean selection [See also Item #1] Members present returned to the conversation regarding confusion over the distribution of the dean search process and there was general discussion on the suggested search committee membership and the submission of names for members outside the unit. Terms of service for either internal or external deans was also mentioned. Provost Barnett reported that copies of the dean’s job description would be distributed to the units today. A review of deans’ salaries will also need to take place in the near future. 5. In-Service update In-service is scheduled for Thursday, May 10, 2007, from 9:00am to 11:00am in the Pavilion. Phil McLewin will present a summary of events sponsored by the Faculty Resource Center. President Mercer and Provost Barnett will present on the dean’s selection process followed by a general discussion on scholarship. Following In-Service, a meeting of the Under-10 faculty will be held at 11:00am. 6. Master Academic Calendar The proposed calendar has been submitted although the ad hoc calendar committee has not yet met. Amruth Kumar and Maria Vail are representing the Executive Council while Dean Jennefer Mazza is representing the deans. Action Item: Provost Barnett will look into why the committee has not yet met.
