Dr. Eckardt replied that there are strategic focus areas, and developing and emerging areas.\u00a0 The intention is to encourage areas that bring together different disciplines. Proposals are due October 21.<\/p>\n<p>President Robert Kennedy announced that requests for honorary degree recipients were sent out to campus at the end of September; deadline is October 31.\u00a0 His office has received no nominations at this time.\u00a0 Because of new policy, nominations are being requested for May 2006 and 2007.\u00a0\u00a0 We may not get another opportunity to nominate for 2007.\u00a0 He brought some nomination forms to the meeting.\u00a0 Dr. Schonberger pointed out that in the past she has submitted nominations nearly every year, but wanted people to be aware that if a person has received an honorary degree from another UMS campus, they cannot be eligible for a UMaine honorary degree.\u00a0 President Kennedy replied that the system has just revised policy.\u00a0 If a person received an honorary degree from another campus more than five years ago, s\/he would be eligible to receive one from UMaine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Committee Reports: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Academic Affairs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Irv Kornfield reported on the University Teaching Council.\u00a0 The UTC has met three times.\u00a0 Its subcommittees have also met.\u00a0 A handout was distributed at today\u2019s meeting with two resolutions sent to the Provost for response (copied below).\u00a0 This is for the senate\u2019s information only.\u00a0 The first resolution directs the Provost to direct chairs of all units\u00a0 to explicitly encourage sabbaticals related to teaching missions of the university.\u00a0 The second resolution recommended Deans of several colleges, including Education &amp; Human Development, Business, Public Policy &amp; Health, the Graduate School and the Honors College, to initiate annual teaching awards to formally recognize outstanding teaching instruction by the faculty.<\/p>\n<p>University Teaching Council<\/p>\n<p>Resolutions adopted October 12, 2005<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resolution 1<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pedagogical research, the revision of extant curricula, and the development of new curricula are vital to continued growth of teaching at the University  of Maine.\u00a0 Excellence in these activities requires concentrated, organized effort.<\/p>\n<p>The University Teaching Council unanimously recommends that the Provost direct the chairs of all units to explicitly encourage sabbatical leaves related to the teaching mission of the University.\u00a0 Sabbaticals that investigate pedagogy and curricula are as important as those devoted to conventional research, e.g. laboratory experimentation or library study.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resolution 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recognizing outstanding instruction at all levels enhances the profile of teaching and emphasizes its centrality at the University  of Maine.\u00a0 Three colleges &#8212; Engineering, Liberal Arts &amp; Sciences, and Natural Sciences, Forestry &amp; Agriculture &#8212; annually recognize faculty for outstanding teaching.<\/p>\n<p>The University Teaching Council unanimously recommends that the Provost direct the deans of the College of Education and Human Development, the College of Business, Public Policy &amp; Health, the Graduate School and the Honors College to initiate annual teaching awards to formally recognize outstanding instruction by their faculty.\u00a0 These awards should commence in the 2005-2006 academic year.\u00a0 Annual college teaching awards shall not be given to members of the UTC.<\/p>\n<p>[Note to accompany Resolution 2:\u00a0 If desired, the UTC can provide assistance in formulating criteria for awards.]<\/p>\n<p>UTC Resolutions are sent to the Provost for his action.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Eric Peterson gave the report for the Academic Affairs Committee. Academic Affairs has met and has topics that they will be dealing with immediately, eg, the CED question. Jim Toner will be speaking to the committee about in the near future.\u00a0 They are also working with UTC on evaluation of courses.<\/p>\n<p>A question was asked for Dr. Peterson to expand on the CED issue.\u00a0 He explained that it was in response to a question asked about policies regarding cancellation of courses, reduced salary, on-line courses.\u00a0 An undergraduate course is cancelled if there are less than 12 students enrolled, 6 for graduate level.\u00a0 The question was raised as to what if a course is required or important to a student\u2019s program and there were only 9 people enrolled, is there some other arrangement? They will be working on these issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Constitution and Bylaws<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Leonard Kass<\/p>\n<p>The committee is starting work on revision of the faculty handbook.\u00a0 Dr. Doug Gelinas, very central in the work done on the handbook three years ago, has begun looking at the handbook and when he gets to a point that he has progressed as far as possible, he will then meet with the C &amp; B committee to collaborate with them. Dr. Kass received an e-mail from Dr. Gelinas indicating that he was ready to begin work with the committee.\u00a0 He will meet with them and then the committee will continue working on revisions.\u00a0 We hope to have a revised edition by the end of this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>University Environment<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Amy Fried and Dr. Sandy Caron<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Fried opened by explaining that the committee has a resolution to place before the senate today: UMaine Won\u2019t Discriminate.\u00a0 The committee is meeting next week and if anyone wants to be a part of the committee, please contact either Dr. Caron or Dr. Fried.\u00a0 Issues discussed so far have been civility, academic freedom and faculty governance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Research &amp; Public Service<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Mick Peterson and Dr. Scott Johnson<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Peterson opened by stating that the committee had an organizational meeting. The primary focus for the committee will be bridging funds, impact on research and economic development and broader impact on campus, recognition of research activities across units, especially units not normally associated with large dollar amounts, and the impact of graduate education.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finance &amp; Institutional Planning <\/strong>\u2013 Dr. Todd Gabe<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Gabe said the committee met on October 7.\u00a0 VP Janet Waldron, Claire Strickland and others gave a broad conceptualization of the FY \u201907 budget.\u00a0 Like last year they are expecting new additions to the budget to total anywhere between $10-12 million. Examples of additional priorities: perhaps $5 million to cover faculty\/staff raises, $600,000 for increase in graduate student stipends, and $750k to 1 million in increased energy costs. There is $400k for facilities maintenance. The idea is to totally eliminate the 80\/20 campus tax on units. Each year if a department carries over money to the next fiscal year it is taxed 20% of that amount, a tax going to facilities maintenance. The idea now is to have that amount officially in the budget.\u00a0 They are also looking at a $400k addition to the libraries and there are other priorities that may come along.\u00a0 Right now they are in a similar situation as last year and are looking for additional revenue to cover these additional costs.\u00a0 There is also good news.\u00a0 Thanks to the hard work of the administration, faculty and others, we helped convince Standard &amp; Poors to retain our University\u2019s current bond rating of AA- which is quite good.\u00a0 At the next committee meeting in November they will start looking at the financial strength of the University.<\/p>\n<p>A question was asked what the Standard &amp; Poors rating actually means.\u00a0 Dr. Gabe said that it signals to the outside world the financial strength of the institution, which is largely determined by the vitality of the institution. It also affects the cost of borrowing money; with a high bond rating you can borrow money at a lower rate.\u00a0 VP Waldron added that it is a vote of confidence in the institution.\u00a0 She said it was truly a concerted effort across the board.\u00a0 There was a site visit from Standard &amp; Poors (not a typical event).\u00a0 We normally follow the state\u2019s bond rating: if the state\u2019s is lowered, the public institution\u2019s is lowered. This is called grading.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Committee on Committees<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Stephen Gilson was not able to attend<\/p>\n<p>Senate President Hayes took this chance to address the senate regarding service on the various committees on campus.\u00a0 She said there seems to be a crisis in volunteering. For two recent committee vacancies, one received no volunteers, the other one volunteer.\u00a0 The Provost search and NSFA search committees both had many volunteers, however.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Library Advisory Committee<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Robert Rice for Dr. Dianne Hoff<\/p>\n<p>The Library Advisory Committee did a brief survey on campus. They have received over a hundred responses and will use the information to see where the library stands in terms of collections and other items.\u00a0 Please send surveys if you have not yet done so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Board of Trustees Representative<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Robert Rice<\/p>\n<p>The Board of Trustees met at UMF on September 25 &amp; 26.\u00a0 Dr. Tom Longen, formerly of AGB Associates spoke about collaborative decision making, meeting for 2 hours with the BOT Representatives and two hours with the BOT.\u00a0 He talked about what we normally call Shared Governance and how it can be done well.\u00a0 He described how faculty can participate in decisions that affect both academic and other areas of the campus, how change on the campus occurs through collaborative decision making, how it goes more smoothly, and how the role of faculty should be defined in terms of their ability to make decisions on campuses.\u00a0 The Chancellor has appointed a committee to develop a white paper by the end of this year for the BOT and us.<\/p>\n<p>Representatives from each campus spoke about efforts to aid victims of hurricane Katrina. Response from UMaine was by far the greatest.\u00a0 Dr. Rice said the amount of donations received from this campus was astounding.<\/p>\n<p>A revenue bond, one issued by the system, not one that is voted on, will be issued by the system.\u00a0 $21 million for a recreation center on campus (revenue bond), $7 million for residence halls for safety and other improvements, and $11 million for revamping dining facilities.\u00a0 Dr. Rice again thanked VP Waldron for the incredible job during the bond rating meetings with the people from Standard &amp; Poors.\u00a0 The annual Program Inventory was published by the systemL we have 387 programs, 132 concentrations, 101 minors across the system.\u00a0 Student numbers are up, 34,000 enrolled in the system.\u00a0 UMaine\u2019s official count, including ITV courses, is 11,435 students. UMaine Graduate Students total 2,237.\u00a0 The endowment report was given at the meeting, total system endowment is $134 million, Umaine has $73 milliion of that amount.\u00a0 Finally, a handful of faculty members spoke to the BOT about UMF\u2019s decision to switch all of their courses to 4 credit hours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Service &amp; Outreach Ad Hoc Committee<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Kathleen March<\/p>\n<p>The committee has met. Some of the issues discussed were the relationship between Cooperative Extension and the University.\u00a0 She said we have just scratched the surface on this, and discussed the University following through on its Mission Statement as a land and sea grant institution. Public service is mentioned in the mission statement.\u00a0 The committee continued to discuss the definitions of service and the role of compensation if there is public service involved.\u00a0 Another discussion pertains to the issue that UMaine has a University Research Council, a University Teaching Council, so why not a University Service Council.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Old Business<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Hayes wanted to add to the earlier discussion of teaching evaluations and wanted the senate to know that this issue is now in the hands of the Academic Affairs Committee.\u00a0 In the spirit of inclusiveness the Academic Affairs Committee is asking senators and all faculty to send comments to Ellen Woodhead or the Faculty Senate Folder.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Business<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Resolution: UMaine Won\u2019t Discriminate \u2013 University Environment Committee<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>UMaine Won\u2019t Discriminate &#8211; Coalition Partner Resolution<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>WHEREAS Maine has a new non-discrimination law on the books that protects all people from discrimination in employment, housing, public accommodation, credit and educational opportunity, regardless of sexual orientation, and<\/p>\n<p>WHEREAS there will be a referendum question on the ballot on November 8, 2005, that is attempting to repeal this law, and<\/p>\n<p>WHEREAS nobody deserves to be discriminated against due to their real or perceived sexual orientation, and<\/p>\n<p>WHEREAS we believe that discrimination is wrong and affects all of us, and<\/p>\n<p>WHEREAS the University of Maine already has its own non-discrimination policy in place,<\/p>\n<p>THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that we, The Faculty Senate, show our support and solidarity with all people in <strong>who<\/strong> opposing <strong>oppose<\/strong> discrimination in the state of Maine.\u00a0 We officially join with UMaine Won\u2019t Discriminate as a Coalition Partner.<\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Caron introduced the resolution explaining that it had passed in the elected members meeting on October 5.<\/p>\n<p>A question was asked that Dr. Caron explain who the Coalition is and why they were assembled.\u00a0 Dr. Caron said that they were a grassroots organization started by Matthew Small and Sarah Bigney in order to get various groups and departments on campus together to show support for the issue of discrimination, it is a campus-based organization.<\/p>\n<p>A question was asked regarding the wording in the last paragraph of the resolution, \u201csolidarity with all people in opposing discrimination\u2026\u201d.\u00a0 The person thought that it should be changed to \u201csolidarity with all people who oppose discrimination\u2026\u201d.\u00a0 This was offered as a friendly amendment, which was accepted.<\/p>\n<p>A motion to vote on the resolution was seconded.<\/p>\n<p>A vote was taken, the resolution passed, 35 for, none against, one abstention.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Hayes had one more item to add.\u00a0 There is a new position announcement for Associate Vice President for Finance which is an essential position.<\/p>\n<p>A Motion was made to adjourn, it was seconded.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting closed at 4:30 pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FACULTY SENATE MINUTES OCTOBER 19, 2005 Present: Aria Amirbahman, Shari Baxter,\u00a0 Richard Blanke, Emmanuel Boss, Mary Brakey, Tony Brinkley, Rodney Bushway, Sandy Caron, John Daigle, Marcia Davidson, Michael Eckardt,\u00a0 Sue Estler, Amy Fried, Todd Gabe,\u00a0 James Gilbert, Nancy Hall, William Halteman, Marie Hayes, Scott Hobbs, Dianne Hoff,\u00a0 Karen Horton, Sue Hunter,\u00a0 Mel Johnson,\u00a0 Scott Johnson, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":587,"featured_media":0,"parent":29,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"templates\/page-withsidebar.php","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1025","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
