The agenda items for Faculty Assembly November 19, 2008 were approved. 1) Approval for certificate programs Members discussed whether an approval process is needed for certificate programs. Councilor Stellenwerf pointed out that an update on the certificate programs would be helpful. Action item: President Saiff will meet Rosa Mulryan to discuss an approval process in relation to the certificate and other short term revenue generating programs. 2) Program Proposal Review and Approval Form: Councilor Risch initiated a discussion on the form titled Program Proposal Review and Approval. It was decided to seek more information on the purpose of the form. 3) Holiday Party Contribution per faculty or staff member for the Holiday Party is $5. Members will have to sign up at the Unit Council on November 19th, 2008. President Saiff will email to all regarding the party and the prizes for the best dishes. 4) Speaker Series Grant Councilor Morley conveyed the good news about the foundation grant of $4000 for the Speaker series. He mentioned the names and credentials of three to four speakers identified/selected for the speaker series. A discussion followed on stipend to be paid to the speaker, travel expenses, who can be invited to the series, and whether the foundation grant will be continued in future. 5) Issues from Personnel Committee Councilor Stellenwerf reported on the email feedback received in response to the preliminary report on Implementation of Personnel Procedures (IPP). Only five or six faculty emailed their inputs on the IPP report. Members shared their inputs and those of their colleagues from the unit. Councilor Risch said that more specificity may help receive more feedback. Councilor Stellenwerf requested members to email their thoughts. The discussion concluded with reiteration of the purpose of IPP and the effect of online personnel packages on the recommendations from the preliminary IPP report. 7) Teaching graduate Programs President Saiff reported on the Provost Council meeting. President shared important comments made by President Mercer with the Executive Council. These included graduate courses can be taught inload; teaching graduate courses should not negatively affect undergraduate programs; no separate faculty will be assigned only to teach graduate programs. Further, unit reps on the Executive Council will continue the dialogue with faculty from their respective units on whether graduate courses be taught inload or overload at the unit councils. An agreement has to be reached by the unit councils on this issue in the month of December 2008. Differences at the unit convening group level will have to be reconciled. 8) Mentoring Councilors Lopez and Morley had a meeting with LySandra Perez Strumolo on faculty mentoring. They plan to create an ad hoc committee with LySandra Perez Strumolo and a member from the Provosts office to work on the mentoring program. 9) Office of Faculty Development Councilor Morley suggested the idea of having an Office of Faculty Development that supports allocation of conference travel funds, research publications, writing grant proposals, conflict resolution and other important faculty concerns. The Executive Council will meet next on Wednesday, November 19, 2008.
