This was predicated on a sense of community.
Inclusion occurs when all affected constituents are represented on all relevant committees.
Representation assumes full and equal voting rights for all committee members. The Task Force came to agreement early in its discussions that The University of Arizona is more than a community of faculty and administrators. Students, classified staff, and appointed personnel are part of the community of The University of Arizona and without their contributions, help, and assistance, the University would be a poorer community. In principle, every member of the community has a voice and that voice should be respected, heard, and acknowledged within the community. As an extension of the Shared Governance Agreement, this document acknowledges the responsibility for final decisions within the University rests with the President and the President's designees.
