Elections of Unit representatives to the FAEC are coming up Faculty Assembly goals include budget, shared governance, Gen Ed, and campus climate President Peter Mercer Parking issues: as a result of recent snow storms, parking spaces are inadequate because of large snow piles and dumps. Inconvenience has been created. Presidents Advisory Council (PAC): it is based on the notion of horizontal communication. Based on the suggestions of the Middle States Commission on Higher Education, the College will set up an advisory body or a college-wide forum (involving representatives of all college constituencies including faculty, students, and professional staffs in various categories) to discuss and recommend (rather than making decisions) on substantive issues and matters. This forum helps to enhance communication, discussion, and shared-governance. The PAC does not derogate from the current decision-making structure of the College. Provost Beth Barnett The Obama administration has come up with a new ranking scheme for universities/colleges. Will evaluate schools based on affordability and completion. 鶹ý strives to further improve in both areas. New academic catalog is delayed. It will be ready and sent out for faculty review shortly. Changes are made on the Faculty Handbook criteria and procedures for faculty tenure and promotion. Tenure and promotion criteria and procedures will be based on managerial decisions, but consultation and feedback will be sought from the union (AFT). Provost Barnett suggests that the goal of the revision is to clarify the criteria and procedures of tenure and promotion (i.e., services). However, consultation and feedback from the AFT will be taken into considerations. Provost Barnett will look into the Deans survey results and discuss. Faculty Assembly goals Shared governance: FAEC and Provost Barnett are continuing their discussions on the issue and will come up with a definition of shared governance Gen Ed Task Forces II: currently in the process of revising the conceptual framework and working on students learning outcomes Campus climate: FAEC will meet with public safety and students representatives to discuss improvement of campus climate and/or any ongoing problems. Budget: maintaining a balance between administration and faculty hiring Discussion: Connect System The Connect email template has been changed from sending from the faculty to sending on the behalf of the faculty. There will be a check-box so that faculty members can decide whether to send the Connect email or not Concerns are raised on sending on the behalf of the faculty and that the email is a robotic system that erodes the interpersonal relationship between faculty members and students. There is also a time-inconsistency problem that students still receive the Connect emails even though the problems have already been addressed between the faculty and students. As a result, misunderstanding and miscommunication are created. Discussed cell-phone policy in classroom GECCo report Monika Giacoppe reports on the assessment process. In Fall 2013, GECCo looked into writing across the curriculum and quantitative methods. In Spring 2014, GECCo will assess interdisciplinary subjects in Readings in the Humanities and Social Works. 018IJPWX^_st % 1 3 : I  # F ] º}r²jhCB*phhJBh7FB*phh7FB*phhjNB*phh~h~B*H*phh/&B*phh7sB*phhJBB*phh~B*phh#B*phh3<B*phhJhXVh,8hE{hhhjh/hh P hRP*5 h,85h P hd5)1J_t   $^a$gdJBm$ $ & F-a$gd~m$ $^a$gd~m$ $ & F-a$gdJBm$ $ & F-a$gd7sm$ $^a$gd~m$ $ & F-a$gd3<m$ $a$gdJm$ $a$gd{8m$] g      ; f ~     $ )    3 6 @KR_k D\%^lno 0LǿϴϬϬϬh7FB*phh7Fh7FB*phheB*phhOH\B*phhJBB*phh3<B*phhB*phh~B*phh/&B*phhCB*phD   K&mno/wx $a$gd7Fm$ $^a$gd7Fm$ $ & F-a$gd7Fm$ $a$gdem$ $^a$gdJBm$ $ & F-a$gdJBm$ $^a$gdJBm$ $ & F-a$gd3<m$./BDovx  DEFST\cOP缴h^CB*phhCB*phhb(B*phh/&hjNB*phhjNB*phh3<B*phh<B*phh>B*phh7FB*phh/&B*ph sEFSTP $ & F-a$gdb(m$ $^a$gd>m$ $ & F-a$gd3<m$ $^a$gd7Fm$ $ & F-a$gd/&m$ $ & F-a$gd<m$ $ & F-a$gd7Fm$ $^a$gd<m$ ,1h/ =!"#$% ^ 02 0@P`p2( 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p8XV~_HmH nH sH tH @`@ NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH DA D Default Paragraph FontRiR  Table Normal4 l4a (k (No List 6U`6 H Hyperlink >*B*ph@@ G List Paragraph ^B^@B WL0 Normal (Web)dd[$\$PK![Content_Types].xmlN0EH-J@%ǎǢ|ș$زULTB l,3;rØJB+$G]7O٭V$ !)O^rC$y@/yH*񄴽)޵߻UDb`}"qۋJחX^)I`nEp)liV[]1M<OP6r=zgbIguSebORD۫qu gZo~ٺlAplxpT0+[}`jzAV2Fi@qv֬5\|ʜ̭NleXdsjcs7f W+Ն7`g ȘJj|h(KD- dXiJ؇(x$( :;˹!
