UNIVERSITY FACULTY MEETING-Monday. April 15,4:00 p.m. Rinker Hall Auditorium-refreshments will be served
The agenda includes a report by the Faculty Senate and a recommendation from the Senate on 'Who Gets To
Vote.' The wording is as follows:
"Those qualified to vote in Faculty Meetings include the Chancellor, the President, the Chief Academic Officer,
and all current University Faculty who have received tenure, have tenure-track positions, or have multi-year
or continuing appointments."
"Faculty with Senior Active status qualify to vote in Faculty Meetings, but do not count toward determining
the quorum base."
These are both bylaw changes and will require a two-thirds majority vote of approval by the Faculty. An addendum
that will not be a bylaw change, but simply a clarification and thus will only require a simple majority is:
"Those individuals previously granted voting rights at Faculty Meetings by the Board of Trustees will retain
those rights."
From: Gene Lubot, Provost
