Material related to conduct issues, an agenda, and a distribution list were distributed. SEIU isn't the issue. SEIU is a department-like organization where all teacher education programs with responsibility for preparing teachers at the secondary level meet to discuss issues related to secondary education.
Bigger issue is teacher education governance.
SEIU met once last year. The meeting was devoted to the issue of governance. Based upon responses of programs and faculty, Dean King prepared a draft document proposing a Teacher Education Council. Because a new provost was arriving on campus, the proposal was not reviewed by the Academic Council until last summer and has been through two reviews since then. The proposal is on the agenda for discussion by the Academic Council next week.
