I.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Welcome and Sign in<\/p>\n

The meeting was called to order at 3:15<\/p>\n

II.\u00a0\u00a0 Approval of Minutes from the March 26, 2003 meeting<\/p>\n

Christa Schwintzer moved and Howard Patterson seconded.\u00a0 The minutes as\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 amended were unanimously approved.<\/p>\n

III. Announcements of the Senate President<\/p>\n

Admissions as of April 11 are down 3% from last year.\u00a0 There are a total of 918 confirmed first year students.\u00a0 Of that amount, 758 are instate.\u00a0 Out of state confirmed are down by 14%.<\/p>\n

IV. Questions to Administrators<\/p>\n

Bryan Pearce asked Janet Waldron for an update on the budget.\u00a0 The system needs to come up with $3 million to return to the state in order to close the fiscal year.\u00a0 The system is hoping to find this amount without causing any impact on the campuses.\u00a0 The University of Maine will have a $1.3 million budget shortage for next year.\u00a0 Tentative amounts have been allocated to the areas with the request that they inform the administration how they would save that amount.\u00a0 There will be public meetings on the budget during the last week of April.<\/p>\n

Jim Horan asked if the $3 million relates to the supplemental budget.\u00a0 There is an overall general fund shortfall for the state of $48 million.\u00a0 Horan asked why USM received $2.5 million more than flat funding.\u00a0 President Hoff stated it might only be $1 million.<\/p>\n

Thomas Brann stated that in 27 years he has seen the grounds look bad, but that now they are better.\u00a0 However, Facilities Management should not allow its vehicles to drive on the walkways, breaking up the blacktop.\u00a0 Janet Waldron replied that she would have a conversation with Facilities about that.<\/p>\n

Bryan Pearce relayed a comment from one of his constituents: three dorms have been converted into administrative offices, while we have less administrators.\u00a0 This is just one example of a potential faculty versus administration issue.\u00a0 It could be solved with more transparent budgeting.\u00a0 President Hoff responded that he is always trying to improve communication.\u00a0 He also noted that not all administrative offices are occupied by administrators.\u00a0 Some are occupied by professionals.\u00a0 Pearce suggested that the information should be made public and Hoff replied AMEN.<\/p>\n

V.\u00a0 Committee reports<\/p>\n

A.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Academic Affairs \u2013 Howard Patterson<\/p>\n

The Change of Major Motion, while it may have met some resistance from administrators, has been strongly supported by students and faculty.<\/p>\n

B.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Research and Public Service \u2013 David Batuski<\/p>\n

The committee will be meeting with Jake Ward to discuss the Office of Sponsored Programs and will have a report next meeting.<\/p>\n

C.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Finance and Institutional Planning \u2013 Christa Schwintzer<\/p>\n

The committee will be bringing forward a motion regarding making the UMaine campus an arboretum.\u00a0 This will give our landscaping a standing of their own to promote their preservation.\u00a0 The committee met with Anita Wihry regarding the building-cleanliness issue.\u00a0 There was an exchange of information.\u00a0 President Hoff stated that he would welcome a clause in the upcoming motion requiring the planting of three trees for every one removed.<\/p>\n

D.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0University Environment \u2013 Michael Grillo<\/p>\n

The committee is bringing three motions today.\u00a0 In addition Marie Hayes provided an update on the workload formula committee.\u00a0 The committee has spent many hours reviewing the relevant literature and talking to Doug Gelinas.\u00a0 One point of discussion is quadrennial reviews that could lead to improvements in base salary. \u00a0These would be individual reviews rather than acceptance of a unit.\u00a0 Departments should begin to decide which criteria they believe are relevant for their particular needs to be included in the workload rubric.\u00a0 For example, the Psychology department has developed a rubric including mentoring and working with honors students.\u00a0 A new book has been published on the subject of workload formulas and how other institutions use them.<\/p>\n

E.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Committee On Committee \u2013 Carol Kim<\/p>\n

A volunteer is needed to serve on the committee working with the new PeopleSoft software.\u00a0 The committee meets from 8 to 9 every Friday and is associated with Doug Gelinas\u2019 office.\u00a0 The Chair of the Committee for next academic year is Jim Acheson (LAS).\u00a0 Other members will be Gail Garthwait (EHD), Tom Christensen (ENG), Jim Horan (BPPH) and Mike Greenwood (NSFA).<\/p>\n

F.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Constitution and By-laws \u2013 Bryan Pearce<\/p>\n

Motion: Reauthorization Of The Interdisciplinary Studies Committee For The Academic Year 2003–2004\u00a0 As An Ad Hoc\u00a0 Committee Of The Faculty Senate<\/strong><\/p>\n

Preamble:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whereas interdisciplinary endeavors in teaching, research, and service have become an integral aspect of the University of Maine’s activity in all three stated missions of teaching, research, and public service, and<\/p>\n

Whereas the current Strategic Plan of the University of Maine places particularly strong emphasis on the further development of interdisciplinary endeavors at the University of Maine, and<\/p>\n

Whereas the Faculty Senate anticipates and welcomes an expansion of interdisciplinary endeavors at the University of Maine, and<\/p>\n

Whereas the Faculty Senate foresees an increasing role for itself\u00a0 in the encouragement, guidance, and development of those endeavors,<\/p>\n

Motion<\/strong><\/p>\n

Be it moved that the Faculty Senate re-authorize the Interdisciplinary Studies Committee to continue as an Ad Hoc Committee of the Faculty Senate for academic year 2003 – 2004, and<\/p>\n

Be it further moved that the Faculty Senate recommends that the incoming Faculty Senate for academic year 2003-2004 take the necessary steps to change status of the Interdisciplinary Studies Committee to a Standing Committee of the Faculty Senate. <\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n

Phyllis Brazee moved and John Maddaus seconded.\u00a0 Martha Broderick suggested that the two parts of the motion be decoupled.\u00a0 The second part of the motion was thus deleted and left to be enacted by next year\u2019s faculty senate.\u00a0 The motion, as amended passed unanimously.<\/p>\n

Motion to Reauthorize the Workload Evaluation Committee<\/strong><\/p>\n

Preface<\/strong>:<\/em><\/p>\n

Over this year, the Administration has begun to examine workloads across the campus.\u00a0 The Faculty Senate, after raising several issues about the needs for, the means of conducting, the means of evaluating the outcomes of, the legal ramifications of, and the consistency across different campus units of such an analysis, asked that the Administration work with the Faculty by authorizing a Workload Evaluation Committee.\u00a0 This faculty committee has been recently organized and just begun to undertake its work.<\/p>\n

Motion:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Faculty Senate reauthorizes the Workload Evaluation Committee for continuation through the coming 2003-2004 academic year, so that they may continue in their exploration of workload issues with the Administration and prescribe implementations of their well-reasoned findings. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Michael Grillo moved and Thomas Brann seconded.\u00a0 The motion passed unanimously. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Motion to Adopt the Faculty Handbook dated April 2003 <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Preamble <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The last version of the Faculty Handbook, that the Constitution and Bylaws Committee <\/ins>(C&BLC) could find, was published in July 1983.\u00a0 Those of you<\/ins>on the faculty then who can still remember anything, might recall that this is about the same time as the beginning of AFUM.\u00a0 Thus, for all practical purposes, the collective bargaining agreement became the Faculty Handbook.\u00a0 And, for all practical purposes, it is still the de facto handbook.\u00a0 Presumably, that is why no one bothered to update the handbook for twenty years. \u00a0We will not ask the question, \u201cWhy, after twenty years, do we suddenly need a handbook\u201d?<\/p>\n

The New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEAS&C) is the university\u2019s accrediting body and section 5.10 of their\u00a0Standards for Accreditation<\/span> state:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn a faculty handbook or in other written documents that are current and readily available, the institution clearly defines the responsibilities of faculty and the criteria for their recruitment, appointment, evaluation, and promotion.\u00a0 Such policies are equitable and compatible with the mission and purposes of the institution; they provide for the fair redress of grievances, and they are consistently applied and periodically reviewed.\u201d<\/p>\n

The issues described in section 5.10 by NEAS&C are largely covered by the AFUM collective bargaining agreement.\u00a0 Nevertheless, the C&BLC has undertaken to prepare a Faculty Handbook that will provide useful information to the faculty, primarily new faculty members.\u00a0 Whenever a topic, such as grievances, is either not covered in or is in conflict with the collective bargaining agreement, the new faculty handbook defers in a disclaimer.<\/p>\n

The handbook is intended as a \u201cliving\u201d electronic document. The C&BLC will be charged with updating the handbook on a once-per-semester basis.\u00a0 Minor changes such as typos or updating URL\u2019s will be made on an ad hoc basis whereas substantive changes will be brought to the attention of the senate. The handbook will be placed on the University Policy Website.<\/p>\n

The handbook in question is the version labeled, \u201cFaculty handbookFinal_2.pdf\u201d, which has been distributed, via email, to all senate members labeled.<\/p>\n

Motion <\/strong><\/p>\n

The faculty senate adopts as a Faculty Handbook the document \u201cFaculty handbookFinal_2.pdf\u201d that has been distributed to all faculty <\/ins>senate members.\u00a0 This handbook will be a \u201cliving\u201d electronic document and is intended to be a useful reference for faculty members.\u00a0 The Constitution and Bylaws Committee will be charged with updating the handbook on a once-per-semester basis.\u00a0 Minor changes such as typos or updating URL\u2019s will be made on an ad hoc basis <\/ins>whereas substantive changes will be brought to the attention of the senate. The handbook will be placed on the University Policy Website.<\/p>\n

This handbook is not intended to replace the AFUM collective bargaining agreement.\u00a0 Furthermore, it is the understanding of all involved that the AFUM collective bargaining agreement takes precedence whenever a topic is either not covered in or is in conflict with the new faculty handbook.<\/p>\n

Jim Horan moved and Jim McClymer seconded.\u00a0 It was noted that this motion may require that the constitution be updated to reflect the new responsibility of the Constitution and Bylaws Committee.\u00a0 Jim Horan stressed that the collective bargaining agreement and the handbook are two different documents.\u00a0 The motion passed with 48 for and 1 abstention. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Motion on University of Maine Conflict of Interest Policy<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n

Preface:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kassie Stevens Walker’s\u00a0 memo of 13 March, 2003, to all employees of the University on the University’s Conflict of Interest Policy has occasioned concern that, unless clarified,\u00a0 it will have a chilling effect on freedom of speech of University employees.<\/p>\n

Motion<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The Faculty Senate asks the President to reaffirm the University’s academic freedom and free speech policies as articulated in the Faculty Handbook and in the rules governing electronic communication, and to concur that the conflict of interest memo of 13 March, 2003, is not intended to restrict use of electronic media for non-commercial communications or expression of opinion, on or off campus, and that all members of the University community are encouraged to continue to engage in free, public expression of their views on any subject, in electronic and other media, consistent with Article 2 of the AFUM contract.*<\/p>\n

*Unit members as citizens are entitled to the rights of citizenship in their roles as citizens. Because of their special status in the community, unit members have a responsibility and an obligation to indicate when expressing personal opinions that they are not institutional representatives unless specifically authorized as such. <\/em><\/p>\n

Mike Howard moved and Roger King seconded.\u00a0 Mike Howard stressed that it needs to be made clear that the University administration has no intention of restricting freedom or speech and expression of the faculty and staff as citizens.\u00a0 The motion passed unanimously. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Motion: Administrative Training for the Faculty<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n

Preface:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Established in their long-term commitment to the University, the faculty offer a deep, historical knowledge of the University\u2019s strengths and potentials for improvement.\u00a0 To promote greater institutional continuity and stability, the University of Maine should offer the opportunity to prepare interested faculty members for positions in its administration.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Motion:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Faculty Senate asks that the Administration establish a program that will prepare interested faculty members for current and envisioned administrative positions.\u00a0 To this end, the University should establish a committee of faculty members and administrators who would design an effective training program, select recommended or self-nominated faculty members interested in administrative training, place them in appropriate programs and internships, and monitor the success of their training.\u00a0 In preparation for establishing a formal program for training faculty members for administrative roles, this committee first should survey the diverse models for training faculty members in administrative roles that several of our colleges and other units currently offer, and also look to models at other institutions.\u00a0 The committee should promote its program actively, so that the faculty can stay apprised of the opportunities it offers.<\/p>\n

Faculty members most typically enter into an administrative capacity as department chairperson, so the dedicated committee should devote attention specifically to their preparation for this important role.\u00a0 The new committee should also focus on developing faculty members for other leadership positions, for instance, for chairs of committees such as the UPCC and the colleges\u2019 Academic Councils.\u00a0 As the Administration anticipates other positions opening up, either extant or new ones, it should notify the committee so that they can contact appropriately trained candidates from the faculty of the opportunities.<\/p>\n

Mary Ellen Symanski moved and Phyllis Brazee seconded.\u00a0 The intention of the motion is to provide the training to interested faculty that will allow them to move to administrative positions.\u00a0 The committee would identify and enlist faculty who are interested and work with the administration to help them develop necessary skills for an administrative position.\u00a0 Doug Ruthven was unclear about what is going to be done.\u00a0 Michael Grillo explained would be prepared for administrative positions before taking them on and before problems develop that need to be addressed on an ad hoc basis.\u00a0 In addition, there is currently no central clearinghouse keeping information about which faculty have administrative skills.\u00a0 This initiative would help put people into the administration that have a long-term commitment to and knowledge of the University.\u00a0 Doug Ruthven asked if everyone was to become an administrator.<\/p>\n

Roger King asked if the committee would be serving a gatekeeper function to keep some people out of administration.\u00a0 Michael Grillo stated that it would rather serve as a lens to focus attention on faculty with administrative potential.\u00a0 Stellos Tavantzis asked what effect there would be on a department that is currently electing a new chair.\u00a0 Michael Grillo replied that it would provide the new chair with resources for meeting the new challenge.\u00a0 Christa Schwintzer asked who would do the training.\u00a0 Michael Grillo answered that the committee would look to see what is currently available, would review the national literature to see what has worked on other campuses and would lobby the administration for funding for appropriate programs.<\/p>\n

John Maddaus stated that the motion is important and provides an opportunity for those who are interested.\u00a0 Bryan Pearce asked who would decide the participants and if some people who be put on the fast track.\u00a0 Michael Grillo stated that the intention was not to create stars, and that the means of determining who can participate given too much interest would have to be determined by the committee.\u00a0 Don Hayes noted that membership on the committee is rotating so no problem of unfair or limited opportunities would arise. Marie Hayes asked if individuals could self-nominate and was assured they could.\u00a0 Kathleen March asked if this was a mentoring program or an attempt to make the administration aware of interested faculty.\u00a0 Michael replied that both were goals.<\/p>\n

Kim McKeage suggested that the Center for Teaching Excellence could be used to provide workshops and mentors.\u00a0 Robert Kennedy stated that mentoring and faculty development were both excellent ideas.\u00a0 He does have some concerns about the committee: we need broader involvement across campus in nominating faculty for national and campus award.\u00a0 Michael Grillo replied that he would prefer not to have the purpose of the motion diluted.\u00a0 Robert Kennedy replied that the motion would not preclude such activities and Michael Grillo replied that it could even be a lever to encourage it.\u00a0 Stellos Tavantzis noted that activists are not always the best leaders, so taking volunteers might not be the best way to recruit potential administrators.\u00a0 Michael Grillo responded that the committee would work to find good people from whatever source.<\/p>\n

The motion passed 22 for, 14 against and 10 abstentions.<\/p>\n

VIII. Nominations and election of new Faculty Senate Vice President\/President Elect,<\/p>\n

Senate Secretary, and Committee on Committees.<\/p>\n

Bryan Pearce has asked\u00a0Stellos Tavantzis to be Secretary next year.<\/p>\n

Nominations were opened for a vice president\/president elect for next year.\u00a0 Dorothy Klimas-Zacas nominated Howard Patterson.\u00a0 Jim Horan moved that nominations cease.\u00a0 Howard was elected with 48 for and 2 abstentions.<\/p>\n
