Here's how we allocated in 2003

1. Calculated what percentage of the total SOLAS faculty each department had (e.g., Art had 6.5%, English had 18.8%, Psychology had 7.8%). I have attached the spreadsheet I used to calculate these.

2. We had a total of 19 senate seats allocated, so we gave each department the percentage of Senate seats corresponding to the percentage of SOLAS faculty -- with a lot of rounding.

3. Every department got one two-year senator, except one (Chemistry volunteered not to have a two-year term).

4. Nominations & balloting were done in departments.
