Policy on the General Faculty
Issue. For the past 7 years, the General Faculty Council (GFC) has been engaged with the Provost’s Office in revising the University’s Policy on the General Faculty. We recognize that some issues are complex, that many stakeholders are involved, and that other pressing matters demand attention by the Provost and his staff. However, it is in the collective best interests of the University, its constituent units, and its general faculty that this process be completed as quickly as possible. We are confident that a good-faith effort by all parties could finalize a mutually acceptable version of this 8-page document within a matter of weeks. Resolution: The GFC requests that the Provost post a revised draft Policy on the General Faculty for review by and endorsement of council and that he subsequently implement a mutually acceptable revised Policy by October 1, 2004. |
