Dear Elected Faculty Senators,

 

The Subcommittee on Nominations is in the process of forming the committees for the 2016-17 University Senate and would like your input about your preferred committee service.

 

Please follow this link to complete a very brief survey to indicate your committee preferences:

The deadline to complete the survey is Friday, March 18, 2016.

 

While the Subcommittee on Nominations will try to accommodate your top preference, this is not always possible. The final assignments will depend on committee composition bylaw requirements and representation from the colleges.

 

For those of you who are new to the University Senate, the following provides an overview of the charge of each of the committees.

ACADEMIC POLICY COMMITTEE (APC) – concerned with policy relating to undergraduate and graduate education matters that have broad impact or implication to the university as a whole.

 

CURRICULUM AND ASSESSMENT POLICY COMMITTEE (CAPC) – concerned with policy relating to curriculum and academic assessment.
