Senators Mark Wattier and Jay White will act as liaisons as will President Landini. The senate will remain proactive and bring faculty concerns to the administration. As Faculty Senate President, she has been asked by the Council of Postsecondary Education for input on the Post-tenure Review Bill. She has asked the governmental affairs committee to provide input as well. Chair Wattier explained that many states have done this implementing a post-tenure probationary period for faculty.
Some states have policies designed to help faculty.
The current bill provides no such assistance and is serious legislation for faculty. She has been asked by the President's Office to forward a name to be considered by the President for the University's Residency Appeals Committee to replace Cpt. She has asked Janice Morgan to serve. The senate unanimously passed a resolution recognizing the university's 75th anniversary. A proposed resolution was sent to campus organizations by the anniversary committee.
