[The following resolution was presented to the Faculty Senate on November 20, 2000.]


The Bylaws Committee recommends the revision of the first paragraph of Article III. Committees, Section 2. Standing Committees, subsection F.(1) Executive Committee of the Faculty Senate. The revision is recommended in order to further communication between the faculty and university administrators and to further its purpose and duties.
Current narrative:

III.2.F.(1) Membership shall consist of the chairs of the Standing Committees of the Senate; the officers of the Senate, including the Immediate Past President; and four at-large faculty members.
    This committee shall represent the Senate as called on in meetings with the administration and other groups, shall handle necessary business on an emergency and interim basis between Senate meetings, shall recommend and review assignments to other committees, and shall establish ad hoc committees on behalf of itself or as directed by the Senate.
    This committee shall not concern itself with individual salaries nor with college or departmental allocations, except as they may relate to the aforementioned educational policy decisions.
    When campus or system administrative appointments are to be filled and where it is appropriate for faculty to be of assistance in the recruitment and screening of candidates, the Executive Committee will assist in the selection of the faculty members of such screening committees and lend its counsel to the development of procedures for recruitment and screening of such candidates.
Recommended change in first paragraph:

III.2.F.(1) Membership shall consist of the chairs of the Standing Committees of the Senate; the officers of the Senate, including the Immediate Past President; four at-large Senators selected by the Committee on Committees including one administrator who is an elected Senator; and shall include the Chief Academic Officer of the University as an ex-officio member.
