Roll Call Members Present: Members Absent: Allen, Jane Genetti, JonAnahita, SineKonar, BrendaAyagarak, NancyLan, PingBailey, ScottNakaneczny, MichaelBarnhardt, CarolBarry, RonBrown, LizBult-Ito, AbelCahill, CathyCockern, CliffCysewski, SteveOthers Present: Davis, MikeAnderson, JodieErickson, KarenCaulfield, RickGray, Patty Ehrlander, MaryHaugen, LeeHolton, GaryHe'bert, MicheleJones, SteveIken, KatrinLarrabee, TimKawula, JohnLayral, SheriLayer, PaulMartin, WandaLeguard, JoanReichardt, Paul Newberry, RainerScott, MichaelPatil, Shirish Wolsko, ChrisPrakash, AnumpaRoberts, LarryShur, YuriSmith, Jeannette Tannehill, LindaThompson, JosephWeber, JaneWies, RichWisen, CraigZhang, Mingchu Non-Voting Members Present: Non-Voting Members Absent:Aspnes, John - Dean, CEMWalker, Thom - ASUAFMorrow, Phyllis (& C. Basham) - Dean, CLAGSO Student Steadman, Josh - Staff Council President Stickel, Tim - Registrar Approval of Minutes to Meeting #129 The minutes were approved as distributed. Adoption of Agenda Agenda Item J. on the Academic Calendar was added to the agenda. The agenda was approved with the addition II Status of Chancellor's Office Actions A. Motions Approved: 1. Motion to establish a uniform procedure for UAF student registration. 2. Motion to approve the joint UAA-UAF Ph.D. program in Clinical-Community Psychology. 3. Motion to amend the computation requirement for the Certificate and A.A.S. degree. B. Motions Pending: 1. Motion on the UAF Academic Calendar. 2. Motion to establish a policy on minimum grade of "C" for prerequisite courses. Abel indicated that there is a substitute motion on the floor to replace the pending motion on the UAF Academic Calendar. He has talked with the Chancellor about this motion. The Chancellor was unwilling to sign off on the harsh language in the first version of the motion. We have tried to tone down the rhetoric and still get the intent in the substitute motion. We have agreement that the Chancellor will veto the first motion and sign the substitute motion if the Senate approves it. The Chancellor has also requested some additional time on the motion on "C" grade for prerequisite courses. III Public Comments/Questions - none IV A. President's Comments - Abel Bult-Ito Abel Bult-Ito wanted to thank everyone for a great year in the Faculty Senate. The committees do the real work. He also thanked Paul Reichardt and Steve Jones and their communications. He also thanked Paul Layer and Shirish Patil for taking over the Senate. He will still be acting on behalf of the Senate on the Faculty Alliance next year. One thing that this body will have to face in the next few years is increasing problems with the budget at the university level. We will see some important things that will affect academics through those budget problems. Abel is confident that the Senate will continue to engage the Provost and the Chancellor very actively, as well as trying to improve the communication with statewide administration. There have been some successes and a few set backs. With the recruitment of a VPAA, he is hoping that will be a crucial communication link that we will have with the folks at statewide. B. President-Elect's Comments - Paul Layer Paul Layer thanked Abel for his service to this body and helping him get started coming in a little bit late in the year. The Faculty Alliance is looking at post-baccalaureate certificate programs, which will require 24 credits. The President's task force is also looking at transcription of certificates of completion. This will includes workforce certificates of completion of six credits and occupational certificated of completion of 16 credits. We need to look at the minimum credits for each of them. They do offer a good opportunity to meet the needs of the community. The policy on acceptable degrees has been modified from the UAF policy to make it applicable to the UA system. It is now at the UAA and UAS Senates for approval. A Distance Education Steering Board Summit was held in March. Working groups have been identified to address key issues. The report can be found at the following site: www.distance.uaf.edu/steeringboard/documents.html. Please review the reports and contact members of the committees if you have concerns or questions. Other issues that are under consideration are: 1) Copyright and use of faculty-created materials. This involves course development and has implications for intellectual property rights. 2) Common start date, and 3) Electronic faculty workload. Paul Layer met with Roger Smith to talk about the report he gave on the strategic plan. He will be working with him over the summer to give input from the faculty and Senate perspective. V A. Remarks by Chancellor S. Jones Chancellor Jones thanked Abel for the opportunity to work with him and the Senate. There are mixed signals from Juneau. It looks like we will get the full 5% increase. If we can get full payment in the PERS/TRS in next years budget that will bode will for us. The notion of getting extra money to infuse into research did not pan out. They will need to work on that for next year. On the capital budget side, Senate Bill 155 is the only one that has made it through this year. SB 155 did dedicated significant funding to the university. However, UAF's share of the $95 million was $1.2 million. $93.8 went to UAA. Of UAF's share, funds were to finish the Bristol Bay Campus construction. We are working hard for more equitable treatment for higher education capital funds. We have dire and critical needs here including $186 million in maintenance repair, renovation, and renewal. Not to mention the need for new facilities. We need to be more aggressive to work with the legislators to work off-season in preparation for next year. UAF is the states flagship university. We need adequate funding. The state legislature is one avenue of funding. Another one we are very good at is in grants and contacts. Where we need to accelerate our efforts is in the area of philanthropy. If we are going to continue as the flagship university we need to increase our private funding. We need some assistance in bringing in more money. Chancellor Jones indicated that they have declared a failed search for the Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development position. The market for such positions is low and the interest was low. They have back off the position and split it into two parts. Wayne Marr will assume responsibility for the economic development. He will be the Chancellor's Director for Economic Development and for that portion of his position will report to the Chancellor. We advertised a similar opportunity for the Chancellors Director for Research position. We will see if we can make it work. The past Student Regent was from UAA and the next will be from UAA as well. Chancellor Jones assumed that it would rotate between the campuses. B. Remarks by Provost P. Reichardt Paul Reichardt spoke about items that came from his previous meetings with SAC and the campus directors meetings. 1. Common start date. The three provost and Mike Sfraga gave advise to the committee that they need to go back to the registrars and Faculty Alliance and ask them to look at the latest date for the last final exam. Then, they can work back from that and give us a 14-week semester to see how that plays out for a start date. The integrity of the semester and the academics associated with instruction and final exams will have to determine the start date for any common calendar. 2. Military programs. It will be back to the future with regards to the military programs. It may be highly likely that we will be going back to a decentralized approach and we may be responsible for the local military courses. 3. Performance Based Budget. Each MAU will put together a strategy paper to address the five metrics. Another paper will be on proposed targets. We need to look at the five areas closely. The due date for the strategic paper will be August 1, and the target paper will be due September 30. 4. The Ph.D. in Psychology will go to the Board of Regents in June. They have agreed on the wording for the diploma. 5. Certificates of Completion. They are looking at minimum credits. 6. Transfer credits within the system. Paul took it to SAC and let them know that the present agreement about the General Education Requirements and transfer within the system is not working for UAF. The provosts will be working on some change. 7. Community campus directors meeting. There is a paper on appropriate metrics for community campuses. There is a group that is looking at how those metrics might fit into the statewide ones. 8. There is a paper out on enrollment patterns at community campus and the argument that drops in enrollment may be associated with tuition increases. No positive relationship has been developed. ISER will be doing a survey of community campus enrollment patterns and tuition will be part of what will be investigated. 9. There is a group of community campus directors working on a move toward greater standardization of sponsored course fees (fees in lieu of tuition) among the campuses. 10. People Admin is a service at the system-wide level we have decided to take on. It provides a paperless recruitment process. 11. Workforce development programs. This came out of the last Regents' meeting where we had a program up for approval that is a workforce development programs. We missed a step or two because of the expectations of industry for a standardization approach to part of the curriculum. We received conditional approval of our program, but need to report back at the June Regents meeting on how we are dealing with some of the standardization issues. VI Consent Agenda A. Motion to approve the list of the 2004-2005 degree candidates, submitted by Administrative Committee The motion was approved with the adoption of the agenda. B. Resolution of Recognition for Abel Bult-Ito, submitted by Administrative Committee The resolution was approved with the adoption of the agenda. C. Resolution for Outstanding Senator of the Year Award, submitted by OSYA Screening Committee The resolution was approved with the adoption of the agenda. VII New Business A. Motion on Academic Calendar for 2006-2007, submitted by Curricular Affairs Rainer Newberry introduced the next two motions dealing with the academic calendar. The motion passed unanimously. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to accept an academic calendar for 2006-2007 for which the first day of classes for fall semester is on the Thursday before Labor Day (our traditional start date) and the first day of classes for spring semester is on the first Tuesday after Martin Luther King/91Ƶ Civil Rights Day. EFFECTIVE: Immediately RATIONALE: Several proposals have been floated concerning common start dates for the various UA Campuses. Forward planning requires that we set our academic calendar well in advance of the start of a given semester. Given a Thanksgiving Holiday, it is impossible to accommodate a 14-week schedule without starting on a Thursday: the semester will either be too long or too short otherwise. Spring semester isnt as constrained, and shifting to a different start day (from our traditional Thursday start) does not create schedule hassles. B. Motion on Facilitating a UA Academic Calendar with a Common Start Week, submitted by Curricular Affairs Abel Bult-Ito indicated that this has been a major issue at the UA level. The motion passed unanimously. MOTION: ======= The UAF Faculty Senate urges the UA administration to facilitate UA academic calendars to a common start week. We further urge the UA administration to facilitate changes in UA calendars to create common days for major financial and academic deadlines, including add/drop, fee payment, withdrawal with refund, and registration. EFFECTIVE: Immediately RATIONALE: We recognize the need for more uniformity in dates that effect students' across-MAUs and feel that uniformity in critical academic and financial deadlines are the highest priority. C. Motion on earning only one degree in a specific discipline, submitted by Curricular Affairs Lee Haugen asked is there was any place where this would cause a hardship. Rainer Newberry spoke briefly about the past practice of some programs to allow students to earn the same AAS degree with different concentrations. This may involve only the addition of three new courses. The motion passed unanimously. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to approve a policy that a student may only earn a specific UAF degree in a specific discipline once. Using different emphases or concentrations within a degree program to count as different degrees is not allowed. EFFECTIVE: Immediately RATIONALE: Currently the practice of awarding the same degree with a different concentration does not reflect significantly new knowledge or transferable accomplishment of the student within the discipline with multiple concentrations. D. Motion to amend the Course Designation/Classification Criteria for Social Science "s" designators, submitted by Curricular Affairs Rainer Newberry introduced the motion and indicated that this change to the social science criteria puts it in line with the humanities and science criteria by making it more discipline based. Phyllis Morrow asked for a friendly amendment to delete Military Science from the list. The motion as amended passed unanimously. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to amend the Course Designation/ Classification Criteria policy as follows: [[ ]] - Deletion CAPS - Addition 2. Courses are designated Social Science according to the following criteria: [[a. Courses may be classified appropriately as Social Science if they exclusively address one or more of the following areas of study: --Models or theories of social phenomena. --Social processes and institutions. --The social framework of human existence. --The activities of the individual as a member of a group.]] A. CONTENT IS DIRECTLY DEFINED BY MAJOR MODELS OR THEORIES OF THE SOCIAL SCIENCE DISCIPLINES OF ANTHROPOLOGY, COMMUNICATION, ECONOMICS, GEOGRAPHY, HISTORY, JUSTICE, [[MILITARY SCIENCE,]] POLITICAL SCIENCE, PSYCHOLOGY, SOCIAL WORK, SOCIOLOGY OR INTERDISCIPLINARY SOCIAL SCIENCE DISCIPLINES. b. Excludes courses [[whose primary]] FOR WHICH A MAJORITY OF focus is on research skills or techniques, practicum experience, or professional or vocational skill development. C. COURSES APPROVED FOR "S" DESIGNATORS PRIOR TO MAY 2005 WILL RETAIN THEIR "S" DESIGNATOR. EFFECTIVE: Immediately RATIONALE: At one time, criteria for S, N, and H courses were all discipline-based. Several years ago the criteria for S courses were changed by attempting to define social science. Given the broad scale of the definition, however, virtually any course offered at UAF could quality. Subsequently, the Curricular review committee has received applications for S designators for courses well outside of social science as generally understood. The proposed change is to return to the better-defined discipline-based definition as still employed for N and H designators. Similarly, argument in Curricular Review Committee about how much focus constitutes a primary focus would be solved by using majority instead. The grandfather clause is to ensure continuity in s designated courses. E. Motion to amend the Table of Substitution: non-UA Institutions, submitted by Core Review (Attachment 130/8) Patty Gray addressed the motion. She was on the CLA subcommittee that proposed this amendment. The CLA faculty would like to make the table more consistent with the UAF Core requirements. Joan Leguard asked about the logic behind the broad requirement for the Aesthetic Appreciation course and the limited requirements for the World Literature course. Patty indicated that each of the departments looked at their requirement and determined the content of what would be comparable and could transfer in. Rainer Newberry spoke against the rigid requirements for transfer. He felt that students come here not to take the core courses but to study the major subject area. He also felt that it would discourage enrollment. He felt there needs to be a referendum from the faculty at large as to how affect is this aspect of the Core is working. Rainer proposed a friendly amendment to the motion asking the Senate to direct the Core Review Committee to conduct a referendum among all UAF faculty concerning the values and effectiveness of the current "Perspectives on the Human Condition" requirements of the Core. This was not considered a friendly amendment. John Aspnes asked about the World Literature requirement. Karen Erickson gave her thoughts on the table of substitution and the level of specificity required by World Literature. Michele Hebert felt that we should be as broad as possible. Mike Davis proposed an amendment to delete the changes to the World Literature requirement. The amendment passed with a vote of 17 yes, 5 nays, and 3 abstentions. Rainer proposed an amendment to strike all changes except for the Foreign Language change. The amendment failed with a vote of 5 yes, 17 nays, and 4 abstentions. Cathy Cahill moved to send the motion back to committee. The motion to refer passed with 2 opposed and 1 abstention. MOTION REFERRED BACK TO COMMITTEE: ============================= The Faculty Senate moves to amend the UAF catalog "Table of Substitutions: non-University of 91Ƶ institutions" (page 31 of the 2004-05 catalog) as follows: [[ ]] = Deletion CAPS = Addition TABLE OF SUBSTITUTION: Non-University of 91Ƶ institutions Perspectives on the Human Condition:Transfer CoursesHIST 100X: Modern World Historya Western or non-Western Civilization course at the 100-level or [[above]] 200 LEVEL (LOWER DIVISION), EXCLUDING INDIVIDUAL NATIONAL HISTORIESECON/PS 100X: Political Economy[[a foundation course in political science, economics or law]] A COURSE IN US OR COMPARATIVE POLITICAL ECONOMY, OR US ECONOMIC HISTORY, OR MACROECONOMICS AT THE 100-LEVEL OR HIGHERANTH/SOC 100X: Individual, Society and Culturea foundation course in [[sociology,]] social/cultural anthropology OR FOUR-FIELD ANTHROPOLOGY (CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY, ARCHEOLOGY, PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY, AND ANTHROPOLOGICAL LINGUISTICS), AT THE 100 OR 200 LEVEL (LOWER DIVISION) [[, social psychology; psychology, language and culture, or cultural geography at the 100level or above]] AN INTRODUCTORY LEVEL COURSE IN SOCIOLOGY, OR LOWER-DIVISION SOCIAL PROBLEMS COURSE.

EFFECTIVE: Immediately Upon approval of the Chancellor. This will appear in the 2006-07 catalog. RATIONALE: To align credit for transfer courses more closely with UAF core curriculum requirements. Currently, transfer students can get core credit for courses that will not fulfill core requirements for UAF students, which disadvantages UAF students. These changes allow all students, transfer and UAF, the same opportunities to fulfill the UAF core requirements We tell our students, their parents, and the world at large that our graduates have a very specific intellectual experience when they have earned a degree from UAF. The central component of that intellectual experience is UAF's CORE Curriculum. Faculty of the College of Liberal Arts, which houses the Perspectives on the Human Condition area of the CORE Curriculum, and the CORE Review Committee believe that we must make good on that claim for all of UAF's graduates. F. Motion to amend the Section 1 (Article III: Membership) and Section 3 (Article V: Committees) of the Bylaws to add union representation to the Faculty Senate and Faculty Affairs Committee, submitted by Faculty Affairs Committee Shirish Patil indicated that this was an effort to increase communication between the Faculty Senate and the unions. After further discussion the motion passed with 2 nays. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to amend Section 1, (Article III: Membership) and Section 3, (Article V, Committees, Standing) of the Bylaws pertaining to membership and the Faculty Affairs Committee as follows: [[ ]] = Deletion CAPS = Addition Sect. 1 (ART III: Membership) A. The membership of the Faculty Senate, hereinafter referred to as "Senate," shall consist of approximately [[41]] 44 members plus one non-voting presiding officer. Approximately 35 members shall be elected by and from the faculty and will have voting privileges. Six non-voting members will be selected by and from other university constituencies as follows: one non-graduate student and one graduate student selected by the ASUAF, one professional school dean and one college dean selected by the Deans' Council; one staff representative from the registrar's office; and one additional staff member selected by the Staff Council. [[If the staff representative from the registrar's office is APT, the second staff member must come from the classified staff ranks. If the staff representative from the registrar's office is classified, the second staff member must be APT.]] THREE ADDITIONAL NON-VOTING MEMBERS WILL BE SELECTED BY AND FROM THE UNIONS AS FOLLOWS: ONE ELECTED OFFICIAL EACH FROM UNITED ACADEMICS-AAUP/AFT, ACCFT, AND ADJUNCT (UNITED ACADEMICS)-AAUP/AFT. Sect. 3 (ART V: Committees) STANDING 2. The Faculty Affairs Committee shall review issues dealing with faculty prerogative and recommend policy changes to the Faculty Senate. Issues of faculty prerogative include academic freedom, faculty ethics, research and creative activity, and legislative and fiscal issues that may impact faculty concerns at the university. The committee will act as a faculty advocate with legislators and candidates. In its concern for fiscal issues the committee shall monitor budget appropriations to the university and evaluate any notice to the faculty of financial exigency. In performing these duties, the committee will coordinate as necessary with the relevant officers (and/or their representatives) of the extant collective bargaining units WHO SERVE AS NON-VOTING MEMBERS OF THE SENATE AND EX-OFFICIO MEMBERS OF THIS COMMITTEE. EFFECTIVE: IMMEDIATELY RATIONALE: Representation by three faculty union elected officials on Faculty Senate and Faculty Affairs Committee will open channels of communication and serve as a conduit of information exchange between the unions and faculty senate. The Union elected members, who serve on Faculty Senate and Faculty Affairs Committee will be ex-officio members with no voting rights. This is consistent with the Faculty Senate bylaws. G. Motion to approve the Unit Criteria for the Fisheries Division (SFOS), submitted by Unit Criteria Gary Holton spoke about the three unit criteria from the School of Fisheries and Ocean Science. He indicated there was good communication with the units. The committee had problems with the specific numbers attached to the publication requirements. This issue has been resolved. Abel indicated there was a missing section in the criteria. It was decided that this was an oversight and a friendly amendment was proposed to add them back in. The amended motion passed with 1 abstention. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to approve the Unit Criteria for the Fisheries Division (SFOS). EFFECTIVE: Immediately Upon Chancellor Approval RATIONALE: The committee assessed the unit criteria submitted by the Fisheries Division of SFOS. With some changes, agreed upon by the school representative the unit criteria were found to be consistent with UAF guidelines. H. Motion to approve the Unit Criteria for the Institute of Marine Science (SFOS), submitted by Unit Criteria Abel Bult-Ito indicated there were missing parts in these criteria as well. Again, a friendly amendment was proposed to add them back in. The amended motion passed with 1 abstention. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to approve the Unit Criteria for the Institute of Marine Science (SFOS). EFFECTIVE: Immediately Upon Chancellor Approval RATIONALE: The committee assessed the unit criteria submitted by the Institute of Marine Science. With some changes, agreed upon by the school representative the unit criteria were found to be consistent with UAF guidelines. I. Motion to approve the Unit Criteria for the Fisheries Industrial Technology Center (SFOS), submitted by Unit Criteria These unit criteria were complete and the motion passed with 1 abstention. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to approve the Unit Criteria for the Fisheries Industrial Technology Center (SFOS). EFFECTIVE: Immediately Upon Chancellor Approval RATIONALE: The committee assessed the unit criteria submitted by the Fisheries Industrial Technology Center. With some changes, agreed upon by the school representative the unit criteria were found to be consistent with UAF guidelines. * Substitute Motion on Academic Calendar Abel Bult-Ito indicated that the Chancellor was reluctant to sign the original motion due to harsh language. The language was changed and this substitute motion on setting the academic calendar was proposed. The Chancellor has agreed to veto the original motion and support the substitute motion. The motion passed with 1 abstention. MOTION: ====== The UAF Faculty Senate reaffirms that authority for setting the academic calendar traditionally--and for good academic reasons--belongs to the individual universities, i.e., UAF, UAA, and UAS, that comprise the University of 91Ƶ System. The UAF Faculty Senate further reaffirms that substantive changes to UAFs academic calendar can only be made with the explicit involvement of UAFs Governance Coordinating Committee, which makes a recommendation to the Chancellor. Substantive changes include a change of the length of the semester or time available for grading. The Governance Coordinating Committee receives recommendations from UAF faculty (through the Faculty Senate), staff (through Staff Council), and students (through ASUAF). The UAF Faculty Senate hereby charges the UAF Registrar to not publish a UAF academic calendar that has not been reviewed by UAFs Governance Coordinating Committee. EFFECTIVE: Immediately RATIONALE: UAF faculty, staff, and students are directly impacted by changes to the academic calendar. These changes can affect academic issues, such as the length of the semester or time available to faculty to determine the course grade of their students. Therefore, faculty, staff, and students should be part of the decision making process that establishes the academic calendar. The purpose of this motion is to clarify to all concerned our commitment to shared governance. ** VIII Governance Reports A. Staff Council Josh Steadman Josh Steadman reported that the UAF Day at North Pole was a success. This was a chance to showcase UAF departments and the university. At the Staff Council meeting on May 13, elections for the position of the president-elect will take place. The Staff Appreciation Day will also be held on May 13 after the meeting. Senior tuition waivers were brought up at Staff Alliance. This has not been looked at for quite a while and they need to look at how this waiver is used. We should be bragging about our effort to promote life long learning. It isn't a huge amount of money. Abel indicated that the System Governance Council voted to continue the senior tuition waiver. B. ASUAF -Thom Walker Joe Blanchard & Dani Carlson (2005-2006) Members of ASUAF were not available to give a report. IX Guest Speaker A. Michael Scott, UA CITO - UAF/SW IT Consolidation (http://www.alaska.edu/itmerger/) Michael Scott and Tim Larrabee were present to give an update on the UAF/SW IT merger. The IT merger identifies some of the things that they feel are critical to faculty. Faculty Support includes faculty workload and instructional design. It is important to realize that they are here to do more with faculty. They also need faculty support and input. Whenever you have a problem call Michael and let him know about it. This structure is to support faculty. Mike Davis spoke about the needs of the rural students for access to the university. Too often this includes a higher cost of dial up service. Michael Scott indicated that they would address these types of issues when the merger is complete. He will bring those issues to the executives. We need to formally address them again. X Committee/Annual Reports A. Curricular Affairs - Rainer Newberry The following reports were submitted as a handout. MINUTES, Curricular Affairs Committee Monday, April 25, 2-3:15 p.m. Present: Steve Cysewski, Jeannette Smith, Tim Stickel, Rainer Newberry, Joseph Thompson, Carol Barnhardt, Gayle Gregory, Yuri Shur, Carol Lewis + special Guest star Paul Layer 1. Multiple degrees from multiple concentrations. We discussed this 2 weeks ago. Gayle offered the motion before the Senate. After some discussion about what exactly does this mean? it was UNANIMOUSLY PASSED 2. RE-defining s designators. Suggested revised wording, after discussions w/ CLA dean resulted in the motion before the Senate. The importance of getting this onto the senate floor this spring was stressed. We agreed that we didnt know how CRA would respond, but what the heck. Unanimously passed. 3. Graduation with honors current wording: In order to graduate with honors, an undergraduate student must have earned a cumulative grade point average in all college work attempted at UAF of 3.5 or higher. In addition, a transfer student must have completed 48 semester hours of credit at UAF for a baccalaureate degree or 24 semester hours of credit at UAF for an associate degree. The cumulative grade point average in all college work attempted at all other institutions attended combined with the UAF cumulative grade point average must not be less than 3.5. However, in order to graduate one only needs a minimum of 30 (bachelors degree) or 15 (Associate degree) UAF credits. Should we get rid of the 48/24 minimums??? Is there a point to this requirement??? Several committee members argued that THERE WAS a point; it seemed sufficiently contentious to try and get a wider response from the faculty-at-large. Rainer agreed to do so. by next Fall. 4. Common Start Dateback in our court for the last time (this year) Well, given that a Thursday start date is apparently still an open possibility, it certainly seems this is the best way to achieve a 14-week semester for the fall. Paul Layer talked to us about what he saw as the essential issuesand that starting on exactly the same day was not as critical as other common dates, such as fee payment. With those thoughts in mind, two motions were made: A. The UAF faculty senate moves to accept an academic calendar for 06-07 for which the first day of classes for fall semester is on the Thursday before labor day (our traditional start date) and the first day of classes for spring semester is on the first Tuesday after MLK day. This was approved unanimously. Our reasoning was along the lines of: Given a Thanksgiving Holiday, it is impossible to accommodate a 14-week schedule without starting on a Thursday: the semester will either be too long or too short otherwise. Spring semester isnt as constrained, and shifting to a different start day (from our traditional Thursday start) does not create schedule hassles. B. The UAF faculty senate urges the UA administration to facilitate UA academic calendars to a common start week. We further urge the UA administration to facilitate changes in UA calendars to create common days for major financial and academic deadlines, including add/drop, fee payment, withdrawal with refund, and registration. There was some discussion about the precise wording. The committee unanimously agreed to this general concept and agreed to leave the wordsmithing to Rainer. 5. Probation and Disqualification regulations. Too many mays both with respect to student consequences and to what UAF does to help those in probation status. We agreed that there ought to be less arbitrary and capricious language. Carol Lewis agreed to take this issue to the Deans Council meeting and get the reaction from the Deans. Presumably this will be a topic well work on come fall. 6. Strategy for next year Almost all the committee members next year will be newbie's and Rainer expressed a sincere wish to NOT be both chair of Curricular Affairs and Curriculum Review next year. Committee members listened to Rainer whine regarding long-term chairpersonship of this committee and the Curricular Review committee. Ways to improve continuity were solicited, without suggestions besides cloning. Joseph T. pointed out that as a non-tenure track faculty member he really really didnt have time to contribute more. Katrin (the only other committee member besides Rainer and Joseph continuing next year) was absent. The outgoing committee members wished Rainer good luck and cheerfully adjourned. ------------------------------ Curricular Affairs Committee END OF YEAR REPORT 2004-2005 None of the issues I expected came up this year and a whole slug of unexpected ones came up instead. I suspect this will happen again. Unfinished business: Probation/disqualification requirements. We need to tighten up the current requirements/policies, which are models of vagueness. Presumably some of this can be initiated over the summer Academic Honors require significantly more UAF credits than simple graduation. There is a little faculty support for this policy. We need to solicit more faculty opinion and either change it or leave it alone. Probably unfinished business: We got through the BOR changing graduation requirements to policy, which means that they can be modified by high University muckademucks. However, UAA choked on our attempt to enlarge the number of UA system credits that can be applied to graduation from a given MAU. Well probably need to follow up on this and hopefully find some compromise with UAA. Common Start Date looks like a continuing crisis fueled by top-down, heavy-handed management styles. Theres a good chance that UA statewide will make some decision that well either need to object to or adapt to. Broader scale issue: committee continuity Curricular Affairs committee is unlike other Faculty Senate Committees inasmuch as its two committees in one: Curricular Affairs and Curriculum Review. The chair of Curriculum Review is a member of Curricular Affairs and reports back RE problems in the whole business. Learning the ropes (as it were) takes some time and yearly turnover isnt good for the University. Next year there will be only a few continuing members of this committee and all the new ones will be on 2-year stints. Theres got to be a way to create continuing without simply making some poor schmuck be chairperson over and over and over. Rainer Newberry, chairperson (aka poor schmuck) * B. Faculty Affairs - Shirish Patil A report was attached to the agenda. Shirish indicated they have been working on the electronic faculty workload project. Another area they have recently worked on is the role of student evaluations in promotion and tenure decisions. The union representative issue has been addressed with passing the motion today. C. Committee on the Status of Women - Jane Weber Reports were attached to the agenda. D. Core Review - Jin Brown A report was attached to the agenda. E. Curriculum Review - Rainer Newberry The following was distributed as a handout. A big issue for the committee was continuity of committee members. 2004-2005 End of Year Report, Curriculum Review Committee Rainer Newberry, Chair Unlike other Faculty Senate committees, the Curriculum Review Committee has a fixed task and a membership consisting almost entirely of non-Faculty Senate members. The charge of this committee is to review undergraduate new course and program proposals and proposals for significant changes in existing courses and programs. The committee consists of the chairs of the various school/college curriculum review committees, Gayle Gregory, and a member of the Curricular Affairs Committee. This committee handles several hundred requests per year, many of which require significant modifications and repeated discussions. Due to the extensive workload involved, no member of the Curricular Affairs Committee volunteered to be on the committee, so by default the chair of that committee agreed to chair Curriculum Review, too. The standard operating procedure for the committee is that each of the 7 individual members are assigned 10-20 course/program requests to review in preparation for the fall and spring cycle meetings. The member reviewing a request presents the request and recommendations to the committee as a whole; however, only the particular member and Gayle Gregory have a copy of the request. For most members this system is at best cumbersome; for members meeting via conference call it's fairly ludicrous. The meetings typically take a total of 5-30 hours per semester. Basically it's a good mechanism for rubber -stamping requests, but a poor mechanism for critical review of requests. This year one of the committee members improved the system tremendously by preparing a table of requests and possible problems/criticisms; this was emailed to committee members prior to a meeting so that they'd have at least a clue as to the nature of the discussion. By spring semester this technique had been accepted by all members and was routinely employed. This committee encountered several major issues/hassles over the course of the year. 1. Lack of continuity in membership and hence of policies enforced. As both chair and committee members routinely change considerably from year-to-year (or even more frequently) there is no consistent enforcement of course policies. Even basic rules (should this committee consider the applicability of S/H designators?) were questioned over the course of the meetings. The continuing presence of Gayle Gregory is a major asset; none-the-less the person of final appeal was invariably Sheri, simply due to a lack of committee continuity. 2. Lack of proper course/program request screening by individual school/college curriculum committees. Approximately 1/3 of requests had significant problems. Most common were lack of adequate documentation (e.g. justification for S/H requests; missing or inadequate course syllabi; items necessary for w/o status), inconsistencies (e.g. credits didn't match hours), and lack of adequate course planning (course concepts as opposed to courses). New chairs of individual curriculum committees especially tended to approve inadequate and incomplete applications. Commonly individual curriculum committee chairs are relatively new UAF faculty members who have received little or no preparation for the job. 3. Vague regulations open to variable interpretation. Case in point: the current requirements for 's' (social science) designators caused hours of discussion and argument as we wrestled with courses that appeared to violate the spirit of the 's' requirement but not clearly the letter of the requirement. 4. Paper (instead of electronic) submissions. The basic reason why few members can review a proposal is that they're on paper. Changing to Electronic format is absolutely critical. Solutions to some of these problems are in the works; a critical one that has not been addressed, however, is that of continuity in committee membership. **** F. Developmental Studies - Joe Mason/Cindy Hardy The following report was submitted as a handout. Final Report of the Developmental Studies Committee: During the 2004-05 academic year the Developmental Studies Committee began meeting as a curricular review committee for developmental classes at UAF. We anticipated that there would be some approvals arising out of the work going on developing a mandatory placement policy and we wanted to continue our mission as a bridge between programs that serve students in developmental classes. Our initial task was to clarify the relationship between the committee and the relatively new Department of Developmental Education. We agreed that our role is distinct from the departments but that the committee can act as a conduit for needs, questions, and concerns about developmental education at UAF as they arise from other parts of the University such as Rural Student Service, Student Support Services, the Advising Center, Enrollment Management. The committee can then channel these back to the department. The committee will continue to serve as a means for Developmental Education issues to be brought to the Faculty Senate. We established a Blackboard site as a means of communication ideas and documents between the members of the committee. We approved five minor changes and one major change to developmental courses in the UAF catalog. Finally, we have begun to discuss the future role of the committee at the request of Faculty Senate leadership. It seems likely that the committee will evolve into another formeither as an advisory committee to the department, or merged with another committee with shared goalsduring the coming year. Submitted by Cindy Hardy, Co-chair * G. Faculty Appeals & Oversight - Larry Duffy The following report was submitted as a handout. Final Report for the Faculty Appeals and Oversight Committee for the 2004-2005 academic year Lawrence Duffy, Chair The Faculty Appeals and Oversight Committee has two primary duties and others as assigned. To act as a pool to be drawn upon to act as the United Academics representatives on the Appeals Board. Report: No requests were made for committee members to serve on the Appeals Board. Committee members shall oversee the process of evaluation of academic administrators Report: During the 2004-05 academic year, one Group A administrator (Dean Carol Lewis) was reviewed and the report submitted to the Provost. This year, three Group B administrators were reviewed: Syun Akasofu, Director, IARC; Brian Barnes, Director IAB; and William Smoker, Director of the Division of Fisheries. This was the second year of this type of review process and questionnaires for faculty and staff, developed in year one, were modified. In general, this review is very costly in faculty time and effort. The results of the survey are available in the Senate Office to unit faculty and staff but our recommendation is that Deans communicate their final evaluation to the unit. H. Faculty Development, Assessment & Improvement Lee Haugen Reports were attached to the agenda. I. Graduate Academic & Advisory Committee Mary Ehrlander/ Christa Mulder Reports were attached to the agenda. The following addendum was added to the annual report. Addendum to Annual Report of GAAC for 2004-2005 On April 25, 2005, the School of Education (Dean Eric Madsen) proposed a new title for the Masters in Education in Language and Literacy with K-12 Reading Endorsement, which does not sufficiently identify reading as the focus of the program to be accepted for No Child Left Behind highly qualified purposes. The proposed new title Master of Education in Reading was approved by Provost Reichardt temporarily, so that graduates completing the program can be identified as having a reading endorsement. In the fall of 2005, Dr. Joan Parker-Webster will submit to GAAC a request to formally approve this change permanently. ** J. Unit Criteria - Gary Holton A report was attached to the agenda. ** XI Members' Comments/Questions - Steve Cysewski spoke about the number of reports that faculty are required to do including annual evaluation, workload and program review and the amount of effort it takes and the value of them. Each year more reports are needed from individuals and departments. Are all these reports necessary? Liz Brown asked for some coordination of faculty development workshops with the Faculty Senate meeting dates. XII Announcement of Award Recipients A.

XIII Adjournment of the 2004-2005 Faculty Senate The 2004-2005 Faculty Senate was adjourned at 3:15 p.m. XIV 2005-2006 Faculty Senate Members Take Their Seats Paul Layer called the meeting of the 2005-2006 Faculty Senate to order at 3:20 p.m. A. Roll Call of 2005-2006 Members Members Present: Members Absent: Allen, Jane Genetti, JonAnahita, Sine Konar, BrendaAnderson, JodieLan, PingAyagarak, NancyRiley, JulieBailey, ScottRoberts, LarryBerge, AnnaThompson, JosephBrown, LizBurleson, DerickCahill, CathyChowdhury, AtaurCollins, JimCooper, ChristineCorkern, CliffDavis, MikeGray, Patty Haugen, LeeIllingworth, MarjorieIken, KatrinKawula, JohnLayer, PaulNewberry, RainerPatil, ShirishPrakash, AnupmaRickard, AnthonyWeber, JaneWiechen, HeinzWies, RichWolsko, ChrisZhang, MingchuZhou, Wendy (Debasmita Misra) B President's Remarks - Paul Layer Paul Layer thanked the Senators for choosing to serving in the Faculty Senate. There is a lot to do next year. Each senator is assigned to a committee. Find out what that committee has done the last year and what it plans to do next year. Each of the committees has a convener that will be acting as chair over the summer. Check out the committees and find out what they are doing so that we can hit the ground running in September. Continuing members are now the senior members of the Senate. This is a time to take an active role in the leadership of the Senate. One thing we might want to address is the term of the Senate. Is two years an appropriate term. We have a problem with continuity sometime. Senators who have served more than one term are the people who know how to get things done. The continuity here is very important. Many faculty don't know who the senators are from their college. We need to communicate better to our constituencies. You represent a college or school who elected you. It is important to go back to that group and communicate what do we do and to get information about what they would like to see us do. The other part of the communication is the charge to know what issues are before the Senate. Read the agenda and the motions before the meetings. There are several issues that will come up next year. One will be the establishment of a committee on proprietary research. Another will be what is the Faculty Senate's role versus what the union is in charge in terms of faculty life versus what the administration wants to take over in terms of faculty development. It is very important to establish our role and to define it. Paul looks forward to working with everyone this next year. Paul indicated that he was not familiar with parts of the university and especially the rural campuses. He hopes to have an opportunity to visit some of the rural sites in the fall. C. Shirish Patil President-Elect Shirish Patil indicated that it was a learning process for him and he is looking forward to next year. XV New Senate Business A.
