University Senate Bylaws and Governing Concepts Committee
Wednesday, January 31, 2007
Arts & Sciences 2-72  12:30 - 1:00 with 1:00 Information Forum for the University Senate Bylaws
 

USBGCC members,

As agreed upon at the USBGCC Jan. 10 meeting, we will have a 30-min. meeting beginning at 12:30 pm in A&S 2-72 prior to the 1:00 pm forum on bylaws revisions.  Here are some 'topics' [see Dilbert] for your consideration.  JW
 
It looks like a fun-filled and action-packed agenda for spring:
  1. Determine any additional meetings to provide information on bylaws revisions and determine next meeting date
  2. Recommend an evaluation format for surveying the effectiveness on the governing concepts. (Perhaps one 10-min survey can be developed for use by committees on how well they work in committee, among committees, in the Senate and in the university)
  3. Conduct teaching and learning sessions for the university community using the bylaws, the governing concepts and the survey for reflection and improvement. 
  4. Work on additional identified bylaws issues from the Level I, II, III tables as updated by Craig
