The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #144 on May 7, 2007:

MOTION:
=======

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate moves to delete the Minor in Athletic Coaching.

EFFECTIVE: Fall 2007

RATIONALE: See course deletions #158 and program deletion proposal #159 from the Spring 2007 review cycle on file in the Governance Office, 312 Signers' Hall.

The course are no longer offered, the department through which they are offered has not existed for many years, and there has been no enrollment in the program for a long time.

Executive Summary
Deletion of Athletic Coaching Minor

The Athletic Coaching minor was offered by the Physical Education Dept. in the late 1980s and early 1990s. When the department was discontinued in the mid-1990s, this minor was left in the catalogue, partly because it was thought that varsity coaches and trainers might want to offer some of the classes and perhaps even the minor. However, that proved not to be feasible without an academic department. The current 蜜桃影像 Athletic Director, Forest Karr, has no interest in the program or its classes. Most have not been offered in at least five years. The 蜜桃影像 School of Management is exploring a sports management or sports information minor, which is more appropriate to current students' needs and interests. Deleting this minor is only a matter of cleaning up the catalogue.

****

BRIEF STATEMENT OF PROPOSED PROGRAM
High Latitude Range Management (HLRM)

The High Latitude Range Management (HLRM) certificate proposes a two year academic program that directly meets the needs of the peoples of the Seward Peninsula region and other rural 蜜桃影像 regions. In addition, this program carries out the mission of the University of 蜜桃影像 Fairbanks (蜜桃影像) Northwest Campus (NWC) by providing a program of college instruction to teach students, who wish to continue their formal education, skills for employability that will assist in economic and community development of the region, while placing special emphasis on using the region’s rich history, to build a sustainable future through higher learning.

The HLRM program will offer a rural-specific, culturally relevant and accredited Certificate through the College of Rural and Community Development (CRCD). The HLRM program has developed an entry-level curriculum which will meet the skill needs for rural 蜜桃影像 communities. Agency or corporation personnel educated and trained outside the state of 蜜桃影像 conduct much of the management of natural resources in Rural 蜜桃影像. Many local people have a profound knowledge of the resource base but no formal training in which to participate or contribute to management decisions at the state or federal level. Students receiving the HLRM certificate will be trained in conventional field-based techniques used by agencies to inventory and monitor high latitude plant and animal populations. Students will also be trained in the ecological concepts of sustained yield and the manipulations and management of animal populations in northern ecosystems. The HLRM program will also serve as a bridge for students pursuing a science-related associate or baccalaureate program.

Objectives:

To promote the development of a skill set in the local resource base that is relevant to local employability and promotes wellness, self-sufficiency, and community development.

To prepare students for entry-level employment in the field of natural resources that will contribute to an educated 蜜桃影像n workforce by providing relevant coursework to residents of rural 蜜桃影像n villages.

For students to actively participate in an informed stewardship of high latitude natural resources – a stewardship grounded in traditional knowledge combined with contemporary studies and research in the sciences.

To utilize the HLRM certificate as a building block for advanced university coursework in an associate or baccalaureate program or other science coursework.

-------------------------

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAM
Program title: High Latitude Range Management (HLRM) Program
Credential level of the program: Certificate
Admissions requirements and prerequisites:

A HLRM Program Certificate represents the completion of at least 31 credits in the conventional field-based techniques to inventory and monitor northern animal and plant populations combining traditional knowledge with contemporary studies necessary for entry-level natural resource jobs statewide. The certificate also emphasizes place-based domesticated ungulate husbandry and health, applicable regionally and statewide. This certificate may also serve as a bridge to a variety of natural science associate and baccalaureate programs

Admission is open to all individuals, especially those employed by or interested in employment with state, federal or tribal agencies or other local entities in rural 蜜桃影像 which provide natural resources management services.

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #144 on May 7, 2007:

MOTION:
=======

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate moves to approve a Certificate in Veterinary Science.

EFFECTIVE: Fall 2007 and/or Upon Board of Regents approval.

RATIONALE: See course proposals #136-143 and full program proposal #144 from the Fall 2006 review cycle on file in the Governance Office, 312 Signers' Hall.

To receive a Veterinarian Science Certificate, students must attain 37-38 credits of lower division (100-200 level) courses. The requirements include 9-10 credits of general university requirements (computations, communications, and human relations), a four credit entry level Biology course, a four credit entry level Chemistry course, and 20 credits of required Veterinary Science courses.

BRIEF STATEMENT OF PROPOSED PROGRAM
Veterinary Science Program

Overview: In response to a shortage of trained veterinary paraprofessionals in 蜜桃影像, the Interior-Aleutians Campus and the Chukchi Campus supported by the College of Rural and Community Development is proposing the Veterinary Sciences certificate (VTS) consisting of a 37-38 credit certificate program. This certificate is designed to articulate into a proposed AS degree and a proposed track for individuals to complete requirements to be eligible for the National Veterinary Technician Examination.

Statistics on higher education attainment for 蜜桃影像ns are troubling. Only 28% of 9th graders in the state of 蜜桃影像 enroll in college 4 years later. Only 18% are still enrolled in their sophomore year and only 6% graduate from college within 6 years (Source: NCES: Common Core Data, IPEDS Residency and Migration, Fall Enrollment, and graduation rate surveys, 2004). The educational needs in rural 蜜桃影像 are particularly acute. Improving these statistics will involve effort on many fronts and one is developing programs that can engage students’ interest before they get to college, encouraging them to stay in school, enroll in college, obtain useful and marketable skills, and perhaps continue towards a 4 year degree. Veterinary science is a program that can positively affect student engagement and perseverance in all age groups.

蜜桃影像 is one of only 7 states that currently have no Veterinary Science (VTS) program. Currently, there are 108 licensed veterinary technicians (VT) for the 264 licensed veterinarians in the state. Of the licensed veterinarians, fewer than 10 practice in rural areas resulting in a critical shortage in veterinary care throughout rural 蜜桃影像. This shortage of rural veterinary care holds true nationwide.

The State of 蜜桃影像 has a great need for individuals trained in veterinary sciences in both rural and urban areas. To become a licensed VT a person must work for a licensed veterinarian for two years in the capacity as a technician or pass an American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) certified training program. Both require passing a national examination before the license is issued. In 蜜桃影像, the option for experience in lieu of education will be phased out in the year 2010, leaving more formalized veterinary education as the only option for becoming a certified veterinary technician.

蜜桃影像n students who want to receive a paraprofessional veterinary education face serious barriers, the most critical of which is the lack of training available in the state. To become trained in veterinary sciences currently, a student must be admitted to and attend an out-of-state program, as well as pay out-of-state tuition costs. A multi-year absence from 蜜桃影像 could also result in a student not returning to the state for employment.

In the absence of trained veterinary care in rural 蜜桃影像, primary and crisis care for animals has come from a variety of sources, including local dog mushers or other animal enthusiasts and village based health care workers. These rural residents already have life-skills in animal and or human care and would like to formalize these skills. When even these informal options are unavailable injured and sick animals are most often disposed of by local law enforcement, if available or by the owner themselves. Formal training in veterinary science would allow rural communities to practically and humanely deal with animal health issues.

In the alternative food production arena, the shortage of adequate rural veterinary care has affected the ability of interested people to have successful large animal or poultry farming operations. Such production operations may involve cattle, swine, sheep, goat, reindeer, bison, musk oxen, and poultry. These producers ideally would have access to individuals with the skill to help appropriately manage disease, nutrition and husbandry issues.

Additional roles of students trained in the veterinary field are identification and management of public health issues. These may include zoonotic diseases including rabies education and prevention, animal disease recognition and education, water and food quality testing, and meat and seafood inspection.

The Veterinary Science program (VTS) will offer a core certificate from which the student can articulate to a proposed A.S. degree in Veterinary Science and expand into different learning tracks. These tracks include a veterinary technician track and a veterinary medical illustration track. The veterinary technician track has been designed to fulfill the needs for AVMA accreditation.

Other employment and educational fields can be entered from this program. The program will provide a strong educational starting point for students interested in entering an undergraduate program, veterinary college or becoming a veterinary medical illustrator. An added application of this program is in tribal resource management. Here the individual trained in the veterinary sciences could provide assistance to 蜜桃影像n Native corporations, in regards to public and animal health.

This program will be a rural oriented program that may be adapted for urban delivery. The rural orientation will be reflected in the distance delivery methods of courses and the types of information included. For example, information about animal adaptations to cold climates and remote areas as well as the unique history of animal/human relations in rural 蜜桃影像 would be included. Regarding urban orientation of the program, information about small animals such as those seen in typical urban and suburban small animal general practices would be included. The core of the program in any area will be basic veterinary knowledge and skills. Students from this program should be able to transfer their knowledge to different environments.

Realizing that students entering this program are at many different levels, it is predicted that the course work to completion for the Veterinary Science certificate will take approximately 2 to 5 years. It is expected that highly motivated students will complete this within the 2 year time frame. Time to completion is obviously dependent on many factors a student may have, such as number of classes taken per term, job, work and family commitments. Classes will be delivered primarily by distance education, as well as face to face and intensive 2-4 day laboratories and practica at central locations.

Objectives of the VTS certificate program:

1. To prepare a group of educated 蜜桃影像ns that meet current life-skill and workforce needs in veterinary sciences, focusing on the rural worker.

2. To contribute to our vocational educated 蜜桃影像n workforce by providing a program that links work-based skills and hands-on learning to postsecondary education, particularly in rural 蜜桃影像 in keeping with the university mission.

3. To provide a career ladder beyond entry-level to an underemployed rural workforce.

4. To provide an education ladder beyond the certificate by providing a pathway leading to additional degrees and educational tracks.

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #144 on May 7, 2007:

MOTION:
=======

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate moves to amend Section 3 (ART V: Committees) of the 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate By-laws as follows:

[[ ]]- Deletions
CAPS- Additions

E. The standing and permanent committees of the Senate are:

PERMANENT

2. [[The Developmental Studies Committee will include one representative from each of the following units: Academic Advising Center, Bristol Bay Campus, Chukchi Campus, the College of Liberal Arts English Department, Interior-Aleutians Campus, Kuskokwim Campus, Northwest Campus, Student Support Services Program, and Tanana Valley Campus; two representatives from the College of Science, Engineering and Mathematics: one from the Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Geology, or Physics), and one from Math; and three representatives from the College of Rural 蜜桃影像: one from the Department of Developmental Education, one from Rural Student Services, and one from rural campus student services.]]

THE STUDENT ACADEMIC DEVELOPMENT AND ACHIEVEMENT COMMITTEE WILL INCLUDE ONE REPRESENTATIVE FROM EACH OF THE FOLLOWING UNITS OF THE COLLEGE OF RURAL AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: BRISTOL BAY CAMPUS, CHUKCHI CAMPUS, INTERIOR-ALEUTIANS CAMPUS, KUSKOKWIM CAMPUS, NORTHWEST CAMPUS, AND TANANA VALLEY CAMPUS. ONE OR MORE OF THESE SHOULD BE FROM RURAL CAMPUS STUDENT SERVICES. THE COMMITTEE WILL ALSO INCLUDE ONE REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENTAL EDUCATION; TWO REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE COLLEGE OF NATURAL SCIENCES AND MATHEMATICS: ONE FROM THE SCIENCES (BIOLOGY, CHEMISTRY, GEOLOGY, OR PHYSICS), AND ONE FROM MATH; ONE FROM THE COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS ENGLISH DEPARTMENT; AND ONE EACH FROM RURAL STUDENT SERVICES, THE ACADEMIC ADVISING CENTER, AND THE STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES PROGRAM.

The STUDENT ACADEMIC DEVELOPMENT AND ACHIEVEMENT [[Developmental Studies]] Committee shall consider policies concerning STUDENT DEVELOPMENT AND RETENTION [[developmental education: programs, courses, instructional development, evaluation, and assessment]]. This committee will function as a curriculum council review committee for all developmental EDUCATION [[studies]] courses AND OTHER COURSES FACILITATING STUDENT PROGRESS. Discipline based developmental EDUCATION courses AND COURSES FACILITATING STUDENT PROGRESS will be reviewed by the appropriate college curriculum council before submission to this committee for review and coordination.

EFFECTIVE: Immediately

RATIONALE: The Developmental Studies committee has long had oversight of developmental courses and programs. The efforts of this committee led to the formation of the Department of Developmental Education in 2003. Now, with the department on a sound footing, the committee sees a need to redefine itself and realign its mission toward “Student Success,” a rubric for current compelling activities throughout the 蜜桃影像 campuses. The proposed mission change complements responsibilities already undertaken by this committee; much of the current impetus toward “Student Success” (i.e.: mandatory placement, intensive advising, supplemental instruction, mastery learning, and first-year programs) grew out of discussions and motions initiated in the current committee.

Additionally, this motion recognizes a need for a Faculty Senate committee to provide faculty oversight and input on “Student Success” initiatives that are currently administration-driven. While maintaining the committee’s role in curriculum review for developmental courses, a revised mission for the current Developmental Studies Committee will fill a gap in the current Faculty Senate committee structure and further signal strong investment in the principles of student academic development and achievement. Furthermore, it will add new practicable perspectives on “student success” issues, will monitor and oversee “student success” courses and programs, and will clearly designate a committee with a broad expertise on student academic progress, retention, and developmental education curricula and trends.

Other aspects of teaching and instruction extend to undergraduate and graduate academic advising and counseling, training graduate students and serving on their graduate committees, particularly as their major advisor, curriculum development, and academic recruiting and retention activities.

1. Effectiveness in Teaching

Evidence of excellence in teaching may be demonstrated through, but not limited to, evidence of the various characteristics that define effective teachers. Effective teachers WILL DEMONSTRATE SOME, BUT NOT NECESSARILY ALL, OF THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS IN AN INDIVIDUAL YEAR:

a.   are highly organized, plan carefully, use class time efficiently, have clear objectives, have high expectations for students;

b.   express positive regard for students, develop good rapport with students, show interest/enthusiasm for the subject;

c.   emphasize and encourage student participation, ask questions, frequently monitor student participation for student learning and teacher effectiveness, are sensitive to student diversity;

d.   emphasize regular feedback to students and reward student learning success;

e.   demonstrate content mastery, discuss current information and divergent points of view, relate topics to other disciplines, deliver material at the appropriate level;

f.    regularly develop new courses, workshops and seminars and use a variety of methods of instructional delivery and instructional design;

g.   may receive prizes and awards for excellence in teaching;

H. DISSEMINATE NEW IDEAS TO THE STUDENTS RESULTING FROM RESEARCH AND OTHER MANAGEMENT   ACTIVITIES, SUCH AS CONSULTING AND SERVICE ON REVIEW PANELS;

2.   Components of Evaluation

Effectiveness in teaching will be evaluated through information on formal and informal teaching, course and curriculum material, recruiting and advising, training/guiding graduate students, etc., provided by:

a.   systematic student ratings, i.e. student opinion of instruction summary forms.

And at least TWO of:

b.   narrative self-evaluation, WHICH PROVIDES A CLEAR STATEMENT OF TEACHING OBJECTIVES AND A SELF ASSESSMENT OF HOW THOSE OBJECTIVES ARE MET. EXAMPLES MAY INCLUDE STUDENT PROGRESS, REPRESENTED BY IMPROVEMENTS IN EARLY AND LATE SEMESTER PROJECTS, OR OTHER MECHANISMS THAT CAN DOCUMENT IMPROVEMENT, AND AN INVENTORY OF SKILLS LEARNED SELECTED FROM INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS’ WORK.

e. A CLASS PRE TEST AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SEMESTER OF NO MORE THAN TEN QUESTIONS FOLLOWED BY A POST TEST OF SIMILAR FORMAT AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER TO ASSESS STUDENT LEARNING.

f.   DOCUMENTATION OF SCORES FROM ANY NATIONALLY NORMED COURSE-SPECIFIC EXAM.

C. Criteria for Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity Inquiry and originality are central functions of a land grant/sea grant/space grant university and all faculty with a research component in their assignment must remain active as scholars. Consequently, faculty are expected to conduct research or engage in other scholarly or creative pursuits that are appropriate to the mission of their unit, and equally important, results of their work must be disseminated through media appropriate to their discipline. Furthermore, it is important to emphasize the distinction between routine production and creative excellence as evaluated by an individual's peers at the University of 蜜桃影像 and elsewhere.

1.   Achievement in Research, Scholarly and Creative Activity

Whatever the contribution, research, scholarly or creative activities must have one or more of the following characteristics:

a.         They must occur in a public forum.

b.         They must be evaluated by appropriate peers.

c.         They must be evaluated by peers external to this institution so as to allow an objective judgment.

d.         They must be judged to make a contribution.

2.   Components of Research, Scholarly and Creative Activity

Evidence of excellence in research, scholarly, and creative activity may be demonstrated through, but not limited to:

a.   Books, reviews, monographs, bulletins, articles, proceedings and other scholarly works published by reputable journals, scholarly presses, and publishing houses that accept works only after rigorous review and approval by peers in the discipline.

b.   Competitive grants and contracts to finance the development of ideas, these grants and contracts being subject to rigorous peer review and approval.

c.   Presentation of research papers before learned societies that accept papers only after rigorous review and approval by peers.

d.   Exhibitions of art work at galleries, selection for these exhibitions being based on rigorous review and approval by juries, recognized artists, or critics.

e.   Performances in recitals or productions, selection for these performances being based on stringent auditions and approval by appropriate judges.

f.    Scholarly reviews of publications, art works and performance of the candidate.

g.   Citations of research in scholarly publications.

h.   Published abstracts of research papers.

i.    Reprints or quotations of publications, reproductions of art works, and descriptions of interpretations in the performing arts, these materials appearing in reputable works of the discipline.

j.    Prizes and awards for excellence of scholarship.

k.   Awards of special fellowships for research or artistic activities or selection of tours of duty at special institutes for advanced study.

l.    Development of processes or instruments useful in solving problems, such as computer programs and systems for the processing of data, genetic plant and animal material, and where appropriate obtaining patents and/or copyrights for said development.

SPECIFIC SOM CRITERIA FOR RESEARCH PERFORMANCE:

FOR PROMOTION TO ASSOCIATE OR FULL PROFESSOR, IT MAY BE SUFFICIENT FOR A FACULTY MEMBER TO DEMONSTRATE RESEARCH PRODUCTIVITY SINCE THE TIME OF LAST PROMOTION OF AT LEAST SIX JOURNAL ARTICLES THAT ARE EITHER SINGLE OR DOUBLE BLIND REFEREED, OR PUBLISHED IN AN EDITORIALLY REVIEWED JOURNAL OF RECOGNIZED QUALITY. ALTERNATELY, A FACULTY MEMBER MAY PUBLISH FIVE SUCH JOURNAL ARTICLES AND TWO PAPERS PUBLISHED IN LESSER FORMAT, SUCH AS PAPERS AND PROCEEDINGS. HOWEVER, A FACULTY MEMBER MAY NOT RECEIVE CREDIT MORE THAN ONCE FOR A PAPER THAT IS ESSENTIALLY THE SAME CONTENT. THOSE THAT PERFORM SIGNIFICANT PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY AND ATTAINMENT OF PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION AS A CONDITION OF ACCREDITATION MAY CONSIDER A DETAILED PROFESSIONAL/INDUSTRY WORK REPORT OR DOCUMENTATION OF SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF A PROFESSIONAL EXAMINATION, SUCH AS C.P.A., C.F.A., OR SIMILAR ACCREDITATION.

ALL FACULTY MEMBERS MUST DEMONSTRATE AN INDEPENDENT AND COHERENT RESEARCH AGENDA. EVIDENCE OF THIS CAN INCLUDE SOLE AUTHORED PAPERS OR A CONVINCING RECORD OF INITIATION OF INDEPENDENT RESEARCH. TO DEMONSTRATE A CONSISTENT FLOW OF RESEARCH, A FACULTY MEMBER WHO HAS COMPLETED WORK BEFORE ARRIVING AT THIS UNIVERSITY CAN COUNT NO MORE THAN THREE PAPERS TOWARD PROMOTION IF THOSE PAPERS WERE PUBLISHED WITHIN SIX YEARS OF THE DATE THE CANDIDATE PETITIONS FOR PROMOTION.

D. Criteria for Public and University ServicePublic service is intrinsic to the land grant/sea grant/space grant tradition, and is a fundamental part of the university’s obligation to the people of its state. In this tradition, faculty providing their professional expertise for the benefit of the university’s external constituency, free of charge, is identified as “public service.” The tradition of the university itself provides that its faculty assumes a collegial obligation for the internal functioning of the institution; such service is identified as “university service.”

1.   Public Service

Public service is the application of teaching, research, and other scholarly and creative activity to constituencies outside the University of 蜜桃影像 Fairbanks. It includes all activities which extend the faculty member’s professional, academic, or leadership competence to these constituencies. It can be instructional, collaborative, or consultative in nature and is related to the faculty member’s discipline or other publicly recognized expertise. Public service may be systematic activity that involves planning with clientele and delivery of information on a continuing, programmatic basis. It may also be informal, individual, professional contributions to the community or to one’s discipline, or other activities in furtherance of the goals and mission of the university and its units. Such service may occur on a periodic or limited-term basis. Examples include, but are not limited to:

a.   Providing information services to adults or youth.

b.   Service on or to government or public committees.

c.   Service on accrediting bodies.

d.   Active participation in professional organizations.

f. Consulting.

g.   Prizes and awards for excellence in public service.

h. Leadership of or presentations at workshops, conferences, or public meetings.

i.   Training and facilitating.

j.    Radio and TV programs, newspaper articles and columns, publications, newsletters, films, computer applications, teleconferences and other educational media.

k.   Judging and similar educational assistance at science fairs, state fairs, and speech, drama, literary, and similar competitions.

2.   University Service

University service includes those activities involving faculty members in the governance, administration, and other internal affairs of the university, its colleges, schools, and institutes. It includes non-instructional work with students and their organizations. Examples of such activity include, but are not limited to:

a.   Service on university, college, school, institute, or departmental committees or governing bodies.

b.   Consultative work in support of university functions, such as expert assistance for specific projects.

c.   Service as department chair or term-limited and part-time assignment as assistant/associate dean in a college/school.

d.   Participation in accreditation reviews.

e.   Service on collective bargaining unit committees or elected office.

f.    Service in support of student organizations and activities.

g.   Academic support services such as library and museum programs.

h.   Assisting other faculty or units with curriculum planning and delivery of instruction, such as serving as guest lecturer.

i.    Mentoring of faculty.

j.    Prizes and awards for excellence in university service.

K. PARTICIPATION IN STUDENT RECRUITING.

3. Professional Service

a. Editing or refereeing articles or proposals for professional journals or organizations.

b. Active participation in professional organizations.

c. Active participation in discipline-oriented service organizations.

d. Committee chair or officer of professional organizations.

e. Organizer, session organizer, or moderator for professional meetings.

f. Service on a national or international review panel or committee.

4.   Evaluation of Service

Each individual faculty member’s proportionate responsibility in service shall be reflected in annual workload agreements. In formulating criteria, standards and indices for evaluation, promotion, and tenure, individual units should include examples of service activities and measures for evaluation appropriate for that unit. Excellence in public and university service may be demonstrated through, e.g., appropriate letters of commendation, recommendation, and/or appreciation, certificates and awards and other public means of recognition for services rendered.

SPECIFIC MANAGING CRITERIA FOR SERVICE

A. ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR; POSITIVE CONTRIBUTIONS TO SCHOOL AND OR UNIVERSITY MATTERS, EFFECTIVE PROFESIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PUBLIC, AND/OR EFFECTIVE SERVICES TO THE PROFESSION ARE EXPECTED.

B. PROFESSOR: EVIDENCE OF LEADERSHIP IN THE SERVICE AREA IS EXPECTED. SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCHOOL AND/OR UNIVERSITY PROGRAMS SUCH AS COMMITTEE LEADERSHIP OF 蜜桃影像 FACULTY SENATE SERVICE, A UNION COMMITTEE, AND ASSOCIATED COMMITTEES ARE EXPECTED. EFFECTIVE APPLICATION OF SERVICE INCLUDES PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE PROVIDED TO PROFESSIONAL OR PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS BUSINESS SOCIETY LEADERSHIP, REVIEWING PROPOSALS, REFEREEING MANUSCRIPTS, AND EDITING FOR PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS OR PUBLICATIONS.

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #144 on May 7, 2007:

MOTION:
=======

The 蜜桃影像 Faculty Senate moves to approve a B.A. in Yup’ik Language and Culture (Yupiit Nakmiin Qaneryaraat Piciryaraat-llu).

EFFECTIVE: Fall 2007 and/or Upon Board of Regents' Approval.

RATIONALE: See course proposals #1-3 and full program proposal #131 from the Fall 2006 review cycle on file in the Governance Office, 312 Signers' Hall.

Requires 9 credits in language sequence, 15 credits of major course work, and 6 credits of electives. Offered through the Kuskokwim Campus.

****

BRIEF STATEMENT OF PROPOSED PROGRAM
Yup'ik Language and Culture(Yupiit Nakmiin Qaneryaraat Piciryaraat-llu)

A four-year Baccalaureate program in Yup’ik Language and Culture (Yupiit Nakmiin Qaneryaraat Piciryaraat-llu) will be made available to students who complete 120 credits in Yup’ik Language and related course work through the Kuskokwim Campus of the College of Community and Rural Development (KUC). The program is designed to accommodate students from three different backgrounds, including traditional on-campus students attending KUC, non-traditional students who have completed the 30-credit certificate or 60-credit A.A.S. in Yup’ik Language Proficiency, and non-traditional students who have completed the 30-credit certificate or 60-credit A.A.S. in Native Language Education: Yup’ik Option.

The proposed degree program will be offered through the Kuskokwim Campus only and will include traditional on campus classes as well as summer intensive and distance delivery options. Traditional on campus students will be offered the option of enrolling directly in the proposed B.A. program or one of two “feeder” programs: Certificate/AAS in Yup’ik Language Proficiency or Certificate/AAS in Native Language Education. Significant numbers of non-traditional students are already pursuing these “feeder” programs.

At the lower division level, the proposed B.A. program overlaps significantly with both “feeder” programs. This overlap is intentional and will encourage feeder program graduates (10 of whom are expected to graduate in December 2006) to pursue their baccalaureate degrees.

Most students pursuing the Certificate/AAS in either Yup’ik Language Proficiency or Native Language Education: Yup’ik Option are currently employed as teacher’s aides within local school districts within the Kuskokwim Campus service area. Most of these students will be non-traditional students in the sense that they are older and often with family and job responsibilities.

These students will be unable to attend courses full-time on campus. Courses targeted explicitly at these students will be offered in summer and via distance delivery. This academically sound program will increase both the quality and quantity of Yup’ik language programming available through the schools and villages from which the students are drawn by providing them with advanced knowledge of Yup’ik language, literature, linguistics, and cultural traditions. This knowledge will in-turn enhance the teaching and learning within their own classrooms.
