The entire faculty, however, assembles to conduct business under three circumstances. The Annual Meeting is required in September of each year with at least one month's notice of time, place and agenda. The meeting considers formal reports presented by each of the standing committees and the Executive Dean. Special Meetings may be called by the Executive Committee, the Faculty Council, Executive Dean, Executive Vice Chancellor, or a group of at least 20 voting faculty members. A group of faculty seeking to call a special meeting of the entire faculty must present a signed petition.
Special meetings require at least one week's notice of time, place and agenda.
Emergency Meetings may be called by the Executive Committee with two day's notice to deal with a specific and urgent issue. A quorum of 20 percent of the voting faculty is required to conduct business at meetings of the full faculty.
