Armold, Coolbaugh, Crowther, Geiser, McNeilsmith, Svaldi. The Senate President will work with Drs. Loser and Baldwin to develop a presentation of the impact of different salary strategies on a salary regression model. Vice President Svaldi noted that at Metro, only internet classes were rated on line.
Metro rates all classes of non-tenured faculty.
Tenured faculty choose 3 to be rated. At Western, all faculty are rated in all classes through the K-State IDEA student evaluation. At Mesa, tenured faculty are not rated in every class, but can have them rated if they choose to do so. The Senate discussed faculty office hours, particularly the question of faculty availability on Fridays, when potential students visit the campus. The Senate repeated its endorsement of the 5-hour minimum rule, but noted that faculty must be present for those scheduled five hours.
