Announcements A. Resignations There have been several resignations lately, including Senator Tubbs because she was too busy, unofficially Senator Summers resigned because she is moving to Southern California to become an actress. Recruit anyone who may be interested. B. Governance memo and motion Plans are to send a memo to all voting faculty, staff, and administrators to ask for their support to modify the governance pertaining to the senate. We will sort the memos by department and make each memo personal from that academic senator.
Academic senators watch for a stack to sign and send out.
The memo will then be followed up with an email. Currently the senate is prohibited to vote by a rule passed by the previous senate. The Constitution Court is evaluating whether it violates the constitution to have to choose five, they are preparing and should have in week or so the advisory opinion. This will be discussed at the academic council, and Exec Rep Kelton informed the senate that he would appoint five from the exec to make sure that students were being consulted before decisions are made. They need to order supplies, find him to schedule a time to meet.
