Recognizing that this action represents an item of controversy
between SCCE & the Rural College versus the rest of the
University, I have approved this motion only after further looking
into the issue. I assure you this is NOT a University/community
college difference and this notion brings our AAS degree more in
line with national practice. Please see the attached memorandum

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #23 on
December 17, 1990:
MOTION PASSED AS AMENDED (unanimous approval)
==========================
The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate moves to endorse the following guidelines
for Faculty Role in the Evaluation of Administrators
1. All faculty in a given administrative unit will have the
opportunity to provide anonymous written input into the
evaluation of their dean or director, associate dean or
director, deputy director, and department head. In small
units, interviews with individual faculty members may also
be appropriate.
2. A representative sample of faculty will be asked to provide
written input into the evaluation of the Vice Chancellor for
Academic Affairs and the Vice Chancellor for Research. The
Faculty Senate and its leadership will be included in this
sample, as well as any ad hoc groups and individuals who
have worked closely with the administrators during the time
covered by the evaluation.
3. In each evaluation cycle, a uniform procedure will be used in
all academic units to obtain faculty input.
4. The procedure for evaluation of the Chancellor is codified in
Board of Regents' policy. The Faculty Senate urges the
Regents and the President to consult with faculty as a
crucial part of this evaluation.
5. The administrative characteristics that faculty will have
the opportunity to comment upon will include at least the
following:
Administrative Tasks
Building and maintaining excellence
Resource allocation
Leadership
Maintenance of strong faculty morale
Problem resolution
Delegation of duties to appropriate colleagues
Building a team
Providing a means to involve department heads and
other faculty in decisionmaking
Skills as a mediator between faculty and
administration/community/legislature
General leadership abilities
Academic Contributions
General Comments
RATIONALE: The faculty desire a set of guidelines in
policy describing the faculty role in the evaluation of
administrators.

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #23 on
December 17, 1990:
RESOLUTION PASSED (unanimous approval)
==================
BE IT RESOLVED, That the 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate moves to request that
the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs begin the election of all
Department Heads in accordance with the procedures recently
approved in the 蜜桃影像 policy on Department Heads.
RATIONALE: This resolution specifically requests
Department Head elections during the Spring Semester
of 1991.
Signed: John Leipzig, President, 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate Date: 12/20/90
-------------------------------------------------------------
The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #23 on
December 17, 1990:
RESOLUTION PASSED AS AMENDED (unanimous approval)
==============================
BE IT RESOLVED , That the 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate renews its support
for "a system of faculty awards to recognize significant
accomplishment in teaching and/or research" by requesting
that the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and the Vice
Chancellor for Research establish awards for distinguished
teaching and research, with funding from their offices and
following procedures developed by representative faculty
committees.
RATIONALE:
1. On February 1, 1984, the Fairbanks Assembly
approved unanimously a motion including this
recommendation:
"A system of faculty awards shall be established to
recognize significant accomplishment in teaching
and/or research. Awards shall be given to 12 or 2% of
the faculty, whichever is greater. Nominations may be
made by any member of the 蜜桃影像 community to the
Chancellor. Awards shall be granted by the Chancellor.
(Recommendation #7)
2. In September, 1984, then Vice Chancellor for
Academic Affairs William Phillips asked the
Committee on the Evaluation of Teaching Effectiveness
to prepare a proposal for a program of awards for
teaching excellence at 蜜桃影像.
3. In April, 1985, the Committee recommended an
annual award for teaching excellence, and outlined a
process to solicit nominations, evaluate nominees, and
honor recipients.
4. Subsequent action by the Assembly and
Chancellor in 1988 established a 蜜桃影像 merit awards
program, in each school and college. This program does
not satisfy the intent of the 1985 committee to make
a small number of awards annually to distinguished
蜜桃影像 faculty in teaching and/or research.
5. 蜜桃影像 lacks an institution-wide focus on
excellence in teaching and research, which will
recognize the extraordinary contributions of our
faculty while spurring continued creative efforts.

DISTRIBUTION. SUCH REQUESTS, IF ACCURATE, WILL BE HONORED BY
THE COGNIZANT DEAN'S OFFICE.
