This campaign gives all employees the opportunity to give to the University. T hey are looking at increasing participation. Support can go to any existing fund or new funds can be established. For more information see their web site at: http://www.uaf.edu/giving/pride \par \par \par \tab B. \tab Patty Merrit urged the Senate to approve the proposal for the B.A. in Child Development and Family Studies. This has been ten years in the making and is well supported. It passed the Curriculum Review committee unanimously. \par \par \par \tab C.\tab Page Gingrich indicated that the AS香港六合彩开奖直播 academic subcommittee is looking for ideas for the Nanook Spring Fest. They are looking to offer more things such as seminars, review sessions, workshops, guest speakers, and any other presentations. All ideas are welcome. They are looking at trying to keep all the study areas open later, the computer labs, and the Library. Ideas or suggestion can be sent to her at: fysaver@uaf.edu \par \par Pete Pinney indicated that Curricular Affairs had mentioned that it would be good if they could find ways of having faculty involved. \par \par \par \tab D.\tab Carol Gold, His tory and Women's Studies. She spoke in support of the bylaw amendment to add a Committee on the Status of Women. This idea grew out of the faculty survey done by HR last fall. It showed that the rate of agreement with the statement "Women are treated f a irly at 香港六合彩开奖直播" was much lower here than it is nationally. A group of senior women faculty met with Provost Reichardt last November and the idea of a committee came out of that meeting. We really don't know what all the issues are; why there are so few wom e n represented at various levels here. We think we need first to talk about what the problems are, to brainstorm, and then to address some of them. This is Women's History Month. Also, an article in CNN stated that women get more than half the Ph.D.s. We are not represented at other echelons to that degree. \par \par \par \par IV\tab Governance Reports \par \par \tab A.\tab President's Comments - Pete Pinney \par \par Pete Pinney indicated that he has submitted two names to the Chancellor for consideration on the strategic planning committee. \par \par Th e 香港六合彩开奖直播 Chancellor search committee will meet again on March 9th. A Public Forum was held on February 19th. There are now 17 applications. The consulting firm also has about 10 or so other names. We hope to narrow the field and bring up the finalist bef ore the end of the semester. The UAA chancellor search committee has narrowed their field down to four. \par \par Pete Pinney is a member of the statewide Ad hoc Committee on Accountability and Sustainability (ACAS). They met over the past weekend. Cross-MAU te ams have been looking at system review of administrative operations and efficiencies. Their next meeting is March 19-20. The data will be compiled into a summary report that Pete Kelly will use to go to the legislature. You can go to www.alaska.edu/ac as and look at the reports that are up there and provide feedback to the ad hoc committee. Pete will be working on editing the summary report that goes to the Board of Regents. They will be looking at this report at their April meeting. \par \par \par \par \tab B.\tab President-Elect's Comments - Abel Bult-Ito \par \par Abel Bult-Ito indicated that he had two items to report. Many of the senate members have seen the email exchanges about the Faculty Liaison position. He would like to thank those who responded to President Hamilton. It l ooks like the position has been eliminated and will be replaced by a vice president for academic and student affairs. \par \par Abel Bult-Ito reviewed his handout on the Analysis of Pat Pitney's Next Steps memo. Pat Pitney's Next Steps 02-19-2004 memo would sugg est that the outcome targets in her memo are recommended by the faculty. This is, however, far from the truth. Although Pat Pitney decreased the FY2005 targets slightly in the direction of the targets proposed by the Faculty Alliance, the more important recommendation of the Faculty Alliance for targets for FY 2009 was ignored. This recommendation included: "Considering the current budget crisis at the University of Alaska, we believe that maintaining current levels for the five measures is absolutely t h e best that can be expected for the FY 2005 - FY 2009 budget period. If this were realized, it would in fact be an extraordinary result, which we believe is highly unlikely, but we like to be optimistic." Despite this realistic recommendation, which was unanimously endorsed by the 香港六合彩开奖直播 Faculty Senate, Pat Pitney has maintained the unrealistically high FY 2009 targets for all measures developed to date. \par \par Therefore, the 02-19-04 memo represents a serious misrepresentation of the faculty's role in the process and a disregard of carefully researched and articulated recommendations by the faculty. \par \par Another observation is that 香港六合彩开奖直播 appears to be held to higher standards compared to UAA and UAS for 4 out 5 of the measures. This finding results in the following questions: \par Is 香港六合彩开奖直播 being set up for failure? \par Why is 香港六合彩开奖直播 held to substantially higher standards compared to the other MAUs? \par How are Chancellor Lind and Provost Reichardt going to correct this problem? \par \par The analysis of Pat Pitney's Next Steps 02-19-2004 memo is provided as a handout for the 5 developed measures. The "percent change2005}{{\field{\*\fldinst SYMBOL 224 \\f "Wingdings" \\s 12}{\fldrslt\f14\fs24}}}{ 2009," "percent change2003}{ {\field{\*\fldinst SYMBOL 224 \\f "Wingdings" \\s 12}{\fldrslt\f14\fs24}}}{ 2009," and "Left out of Pat Pitney's Next steps 02-19-2004 memo" sections were added by Abel, while the other information was taken from Pat Pitney's memo. \par \par Dan Odess asked about the percentage of workload available to allocate to grant work. You can't be committed to over 100%. There are many faculty who can't take on more grant work because they are fully committed at this point. \par \par Peter McRoy commented that the current unemployment rate in Alaska is close to 9% and probably explains the record enrollment at the university. \par \par Susan Herman commented that these seem to be unfunded mandates. Pete Pinney indicated that we need to look at quality issues as well as quantity. \par \par Jenifer Reynolds and Steve Cysewski suggested that a price tag to realize these target be part of the equation. \par \par Dan Odess indicated there are a finite number of student, and faculty available to fill these goals. We can't keep growing forever. \par \par \par \tab C.\tab Staff Council - Rory O'Neill \par \par Rory O'Neill was not available for a report. \par \par \par \tab D.\tab AS香港六合彩开奖直播 - Thom Walker \par \par Thom Walker was not available for a report. \par \par \par \tab E.\tab Faculty Liaison - Eva Kopacz \par \par Eva Kopacz was unable to attend. \par \par \par \par V\tab Comments from Chancellor, Marshall Lind - \par \par Chancellor Lind thanked Abel for getting into the measures in such a sincere and in-depth way. He recommends that the senate not take any action yet and give them a chance to work with statewide. This will be a top ic of discussion at the April Board of Regents meeting. Between now and that time we can arrive at some figures that are more realistic. Chancellor Lind has listened carefully to all the concerns and will convey them to President Hamilton. He will stay in touch with Abel and Pete and will work with the senate. There will be another senate meeting prior to the next Board meeting. \par \par This week the three MAU's and statewide will have a chance to address Commonwealth North. They did an extensive report las t year on the university. They want to have a follow up on that report. They want to know where we are going as a result of those recommendations. He will have the opportunity to talk about what we are doing at 香港六合彩开奖直播; everything from accountability measu res to what we are doing with our community campuses and what happens if our funding does not materialize to the extent we are asking. They will be with Commonwealth North on Friday, March 5th. \par \par Last week the Board of Regents met and approved the central ized animal facility planning. It is part of the BICS building. At the Board of Regents meeting there were a number of students from 香港六合彩开奖直播 and throughout the state that showed up. Our students represented us extremely well. Their theme this year was a p uzzle where all the pieces fit together. The puzzle pieces were of the state and included 14 pieces. It is part of the full funding support for the University. Our students were a great support. \par \par It is too early to tell how the budget is going. There is more discussion about support for education and PERS, TERS. There is even a fair amount of talk about taxes. Chancellor Lind is pleased with the fact they are looking at two areas that are important to us. We will continue to do what we can to conti nue the momentum. \par \par We are recruiting now for filling the first endowed chair in Journalism. The Journalism department is moving forward with that recruitment for the C.W. Snedden chair in Journalism. They are hoping to have a person on this fall. All o f the money is in for that chair as well as for the endowed chair in History. We are waiting now for that one to generate some earnings. And in a few weeks we hope to announce a third chair. \par \par Chancellor Lind wants to emphasize becoming involved with th e Nanook Spring Fest. We have a committee working really hard to make this a positive event. There is a whole series of community activities. Great things are happening as a result of the new direction for this day. \par \par \par \tab Comments from Provost, Paul Reichardt - \par }\pard \fi-720\li720\widctlpar\adjustright { \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { Provost Reichardt spoke about the flurry of interest in the recreation courses. They will continue offering the 1 credit recreation courses. Beginning next fall they will be administered by TVC rather than CLA. Students shouldn't notice any di fferences. \par \par Academic Performance Criteria. There is a scheduled discussion later. An updated version was provided as a handout. The criteria are two-fold. Ask the question, "Collectively, do they seem like a reasonable way to measure the performance of the academic programs at 香港六合彩开奖直播." And the second question is, "Are they useful in terms of judging the academic performance of individual units." This project will be revisited at the Provost Council on Wednesday and begin to collect data. The next pha se will be to look at the data collected and see if it is useful. \par \par Provost Reichardt would like the Senate to think about the process used for awarding Emeritus status. The qualifications for faculty who have retired at the rank of professor and have bee n here for 10 years is straight forward and the process is that they are nominated by at least three faculty, one of whom must be a member of the primary academic unit of the retiree. Then it goes to the Provost and the Chancellor. There is also an exce p tional provision clause. 香港六合彩开奖直播 half of this year's nominees fall under the exceptions. Some of the nominees over the past years have been self-nominations, nominations where all three nominating faculty are emeritus faculty, nomination of individuals wh o have been retired for up to 20 years, nominations of faculty who were not at the rank of professor. Provost Reichardt is not comfortable with the idea that three faculty members can come up with a nomination and without any further review or formal inpu t the decision falls to the Chancellor upon the recommendation of the Provost. Reichardt would like the Senate to revisit that process. More faculty involvement is something to look at. The issue was referred to Faculty Affairs. \par \par Steve Cysewski asked h ow the Academic Performance Criteria fits into or reacts to the statewide metrics. Provost Reichardt indicated that he is interested in us defining for ourselves what we think is a good way to look at our academic performance and then shape what is happe n ing systemwide. There are five measures in front of us now and there will be 20 measures. What we come up with now may influence some of the other measures. Abel Bult-Ito indicated concern about the use of the promotion/tenure statistics as part of the criteria. \par }\pard \fi-720\li720\widctlpar\adjustright { \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { Pete Pinney asked about the memo concerning hiring of faculty. Paul Reichardt recently sent a memo to deans and directors requiring a face to face conversation with those hiring permanent faculty members. It is a matter of knowing how critica l it is to fill the position and that it is done in the context of some plan to deal with the worst case scenario with respect to budget. Jane Weber asked how it pertains to CRA and if the chancellor would have a similar policy for CRA. \par }\pard \fi-720\li720\widctlpar\adjustright { \par \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { \par VI\tab Old Business \par \par \tab A.\tab Classified Research - \par \par Pete Pinney indicated that there is a more recent version of the classified research policy. Meetings of the reconciliation committee are scheduled for March 3 and 11. After a meeting in October the faculty senate represent ative revised the policy and sent it to the administrative side of the committee. They finally heard from them in February. They are now pushing for a meeting so they can get this through the Senate this semester. The latest draft will be circulated to the Senate. There was a lot of concern about the faculty committee reviewing proposals. It will take a little bit more time. The Chancellor has not spent a lot of time on this issue, as he is waiting for the reconciliation committee to make a recommend ation. The guidelines now will apply to the faculty committee conducting the review, advising the Chancellor. \par \par \par B.\tab Course Level and Grade Definitions - \par \par Pete Pinney indicated this is old business from Faculty Alliance from years ago. After this was pa ssed last time the new registrars wanted to work on it again. This is not changing the rule on how we use the grading system. Each MAU may select from this array of grading. This will make it uniform for articulation purposes. Jane Weber made a motion to amend the definition of Professional Development Courses to delete the phrase "at a post-baccalaureate level." Rainer Newberry would like to see the grade of "D" change to delete "below average" and replace it with "minimal." There was no objection t o forwarding this back to Faculty Alliance with these modifications. \par \par \par C.\tab Craig Wisen, budget liaison report. \par \par Craig Wisen reported on the question that Abel raised last year in regards to the portion of the budget allocated to administrative vs. facult y categories. We are asking the same question when using national expenditure categories. Craig is meeting with Paul Reichardt, Marshal Lind, and Joe Trubacz. Joe has been very helpful in pulling the data we need. We will be looking at FTE and dollar s associated with those FTE as well as overall expenditures for the entire category. We are not looking at just administrative and faculty, but skilled/craft, secretary/clerical/professional. There are seven different categories. Craig should have a re port for the senate in April. \par \par \par \par VII\tab New Business \par \par \tab A.\tab Motion to approve a B.A. in Child Development and Family Studies, submitted by Curricular Affairs \par \par Rainer Newberry had nothing further to add to the request.

In addition, qualifications beyond an Associate degree are required or recommended for all preschool teachers and many other positions in the field including: family advocates, home visitors, curricu lum coordinators and administrators. Employers for all of these positions regularly seek applicants with baccalaureate degrees. Recently employers have been hiring candidates from out of state in order to find qualified applicants. \par \par Furthermore, many of t he current graduates of the ECE AAS degree want greater knowledge in this field, even if it is not required for their jobs. Since there is no relevant degree available here, they go out of state, seek a less satisfying degree through the complex interdis ciplinary process, change careers completely, or leave the university with unfulfilled career aspirations, unprepared for the more challenging positions in the early childhood profession. \par \par According to multiple sources there are approximately 5000 early chi ldhood jobs in Alaska. The new BA in ECE at the UA campus is trying to prepare people for approximately 50% of those jobs, plus K-3 teachers in the Anchorage bowl. The 香港六合彩开奖直播 program is intended to serve the rest of the state, focusing on Child Development and Family Studies, rather than Education. Most early childhood professionals are mature women, with growing families and strong family values. Many work in small villages and cannot leave their families and communities to move to the city and obtain the UAA degree. The BA CDFS, with distance delivery, is designed for them.{\*\bkmkstart _Toc485720839}{\*\bkmkstart _Toc486226066}{\*\bkmkstart _Toc486323843}{\*\bkmkstart _Toc488882956}{\*\bkmkstart _Toc488883104}{\*\bkmkstart _Toc489112942} {\*\bkmkstart _Toc492231036} \par {\*\bkmkend _Toc485720839}{\*\bkmkend _Toc486226066}{\*\bkmkend _Toc486323843}{\*\bkmkend _Toc488882956}{\*\bkmkend _Toc488883104}{\*\bkmkend _Toc489112942}{\*\bkmkend _Toc492231036} \par }\pard\plain \widctlpar\adjustright \f7\cgrid { \par ** \par \par \tab B.\tab Motion to amend the Faculty Senate Section 3, (Article V, Committee, Permanent) of the Bylaws, submitted by Administrative Committee \par \par }\pard \ri-260\widctlpar\adjustright {Abel Bult-Ito presented t he motion and indicated that this came to the Senate from Carol Gold.

Bookstore \par \tab The meeting concentr ated on discussion with the bookstore management and staff of problems raised by faculty over the supply of textbooks for classes. The major issues brought to the attention of Faculty Affairs include inadequate number of books for registered students in classes, switching titles from those ordered by a faculty member for a class, long delays in supplying late book orders and little or no feedback to faculty. \par \tab Bookstore management presented an overview of their operations with supporting materials showing t he process of textbook ordering from initial faculty request to sale to students. An important feature of the 香港六合彩开奖直播 Bookstore program is the repurchase option for students, which is not available if books are purchased elsewhere. The bookstore is a 香港六合彩开奖直播 au x iliary and, as such, it is required to generate its operational budget internally. Terry Kelly noted that the bookstore had accumulated a debt of $912K over a seven-year period but that last year, through management revisions, the operation gained $75K. Such "profits" are reinvested in the operation and not transferable to other university funds. Scott Ebanez pointed out that the bookstore orders over 1600 titles annually, which includes about 10% of titles from custom publishers. For the latter orders , the minimum access time is 6 weeks with no returns; if a title is from a foreign publisher the time line is abut 3 months. The time line for most books ordered is a national process and 香港六合彩开奖直播 is on this schedule. \par }\pard \fi720\widctlpar\adjustright {The problem of excess returns was discusse d. Book orders are adjusted by staff based on the enrollment history of a class. The bookstore seeks to have excess returns charged to departments. FA members were quick to note that no such funds existed in department budgets for this. Apparently t h ere are some departments that are repeated offenders in ordering excess texts but no action has been proposed to modify orders. The operating guideline for textbook orders is to order whatever the faculty member requests but this is modified by staff bas ed on expected enrollment. \par In sum, Faculty Affairs recommended the following modifications to the book ordering process and bookstore operations. First, the bookstore management has only cursory data on its actual market share. While numbers were often p rovided to FA committee members questions, the data were from national trends rather than 香港六合彩开奖直播. Faculty Affairs encourages the bookstore management to acquire actual marketing data on 香港六合彩开奖直播 student purchases and returns. The second recommendation is that t h e bookstore should make every attempt to streamline the book order process using electronic communications. Feedback to faculty members as to the titles and numbers of books that were actually ordered would be a large benefit to faculty and would allevia te many problems. Some discussion occurred on how this could be implemented. \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { \par 2.

There was no additional discussion. \par \par \par \tab B.\tab HB 282 - \par \par Pete Pinney brought this up because he heard about it at the Faculty Alliance meeting. Pete Kelly mentioned that his w as going through the legislature. He wanted some clarification on how this effects faculty and the collective bargaining agreement and our current policy on intellectual property. \par \par Provost Reichardt indicated that basically what it allows is the presid ent to sign a contract that would allow a faculty member who has created something of value to have a financial interest in the corporation that markets it. Up until now the faculty member under the collective bargaining agreement has certain intellectu a l property rights, but the contract that the university would sign with somebody to commercialize it would not allow the faculty member to be part of that group. This bill changes that so that you could get the intellectual property rights given to you u nder the collective bargaining agreement plus you could be part of the spin off company that markets the product. Provost Reichardt indicated that we might be one of the only states which currently does not have some version of this. \par \par \par \tab C.\tab Dialup modem access to aurora - \par \par Pete Pinney indicated that the sustainability and accountability committee made recommendations to cutting the cost of the dial up modem. \par \par Dan Odess stated that he and a number of other faculty rely very heavily on access to the inter net and do a lot of work at home. This is a basic service to enable us to do our job. Cutting this would greatly impact his personal cost. Susan Herman indicated that mainly students use that service much more than faculty. It is hard for them to affo r d to pay the monthly provider fee. This is also an issue with the rural students. There was a spreadsheet which showed the breakdown in users. At 香港六合彩开奖直播 there was 90-100 different faculty accounts used every month. There were 500-600 different student ac c ounts used every month. Pete Pinney indicated that this is the type of report/conversation that will be coming out of the committee. He invites everyone to look at the reports and make comments to the leads.
