\par \tab self-evaluation of activities performed during the three-year 
\par \tab period (academic years) prior to the year of evaluation or since 
\par \tab the last evaluation.  This narrative should include reflections

\par 
\par 
\par PURPOSE: 
\par 
\par The Outstan
ding Senator(s) of the year award is an award to be given by the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Faculty Senate for truly outstanding contribution of service for academic quality at the University.  The contribution to be recognized would be far beyond that normally made by an indiv
idual in the normal performance of his or her job.  
\par 
\par CRITERIA:  
\par 
\par The recipient should be a serving member of the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Faculty Senate or a serving member of a permanent or standing committee of the Faculty Senate who has made a major contribution to the fac
ulty's and student's welfare, to the faculty's ability to carry out its duties more effectively, to the general betterment of the University outside the teaching and research function, or has shown wise and courageous leadership (and responsibility) in be
half of the faculty and University.  This should be an award for service, not teaching or research, above and beyond that normally expected from an individual.  
\par 
\par NON-ELIGIBILITY:  
\par 
\par The President and President-Elect of the Faculty Senate are not eligible to receive this award in their positions during their years of service.  
\par 
\par PROCEDURES:  
\par 
\par Any eligible Faculty Senate member may nominate a candidate for the OSYA.  The letter of nomination should include a brief list of the Senator's accomplishments and a 
cover letter that makes the case for the nominee.  The nomination should be submitted to the Faculty Senate President by March 1.  
\par 
\par The Screening Committee will consist of five members.  One member will be appointed from the Provost Council by the Provost
.  The Faculty Senate will select four (4) members one of whom will be the President-Elect, and three others, none of whom is a nominee, in the March meeting of the Senate.  This committee will meet prior to the April meeting of the Senate to screen all a
pplicants and select one or two candidates that are recommended to the Senate President.  
\par 
\par In the April Faculty Senate meeting, the committee shall move the appropriate resolution(s).  After appropriate discussion, the full Senate shall vote by secret ball
ot on the motions.  A simple majority vote of those attending will be necessary for the Senate to confirm an OSYA.  The votes will be counted by the President and Secretary of the Senate, and the award is announced by the President of the Senate.  
\par 
\par The aw
ard is to be presented by the President of the Senate and the form of the award shall be a framed, hand-lettered certificate that contains the resolution passed by the Senate and the signatures of the Faculty Senate President and President-Elect, and a ca
sh award.

\par 
\par Dear Dr. Box,
\par 
\par I would like to thank both you and Dr. Leguard for taking the time to share with me your concerns, and the concerns of other faculty members, regarding the bookstore\rquote s textbook ad
option policies.  I appreciate the opportunity to speak with you about this matter, and also your offer to pass along to other faculty members this summary of our discussion. 
\par 
\par The most important message I would like to convey is an assurance to you and al
l of the other faculty members that it is not bookstore policy to substitute a textbook of our choosing for the textbook that the instructor has selected.   We realize that the textbook is a valuable learning tool, and that we have neither the knowledge t
o
 select that tool for the instructor, or the right to disrupt the planned learning process by making an unauthorized textbook substitution.  Unfortunately, it appears that several textbook orders for the fall semester were filled with books that were diff
e
rent either in edition or format from the books that were ordered, without prior knowledge of the instructor.  This is inexcusable and should never happen.  Because of this lapse in communication on our part, the bookstore has developed the following proc
edure to deal with requested textbooks that are no longer available:
\par 
\par {\listtext\pard\plain\f7 \hich\af7\dbch\af0\loch\f7 1-\tab}}\pard \fi-360\li720\ri360\widctlpar\jclisttab\tx720\ls1\adjustright {
If a textbook is not available as ordered, no matter what the reason (old edition, out of stock, now bundled with something else, etc\u8230\'c9.) the textbook department will attempt to contact th
e instructor immediately by phone to discuss the textbook options available.
\par {\listtext\pard\plain\f7 \hich\af7\dbch\af0\loch\f7 2-\tab}If the instructor can\rquote t be reached by phone, the textbook department will e-mail both the instructor, and the department administrative assistant. (If an instructor is off contrac
t, or otherwise unavailable via the contact points listed in the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ directory, it would be helpful to us if an alternate method of contact is listed on the textbook adoption form.)  
\par {\listtext\pard\plain\f7 \hich\af7\dbch\af0\loch\f7 3-\tab}If the textbook department doesn\rquote t hear back from the instructor or the 
administrative assistant by the time the order needs to be placed for timely arrival, the textbook coordinator will use his best judgment and order the edition the publisher deems a substitute for the edition the instructor has selected, but is no longer 
a
vailable. We will not substitute titles (only new editions for old editions, bundle packed for textbook only, etc.) and we will only substitute editions if we are advised the edition ordered is no longer available.  The textbook department will then send 
a notification/explanation letter to the department.

As a resource, approximately one month prior to the start of the semester, the bookstore will send a report to each department listing all of the books on order for that department.  Books ordered for individual classes can also be viewed on the bookstore

\par Curricular Affairs Committee Meeting Report
\par 
\par The Curricular Affairs committee held audioconferenced meetings on 24 Sept & 8 Oct 2002 from 1130am to 1 p.m.  
\par 
\par Members present included Mike Hannigan, Wanda Martin, David Barnes, Eduard Zilberkant, Carol Barn
hardt, James Gladden, Gary Holton, William Schneider, Gayle Gregory, Ron Slominski, and Ron Illingworth.  Guests included Susan Blalock representing Dean Morrow.
\par 
\par All meetings will be audioconferenced as well as face to face as some members of the committe
e are from outside Fairbanks.  At our first meeting, we welcomed Ron Slominski, the new registrar and are looking forward to his participation with this committee.
\par 
\par The committee addressed the following issues:
\par 1.  The committee reviewed the listing of issues which will be before us this semester.
\par 
\par 2.  The committee discussed a course addition to the AA degree to reflect the addition of this Math course (Math 161) to the baccalaureate core.  Since the AA attempts to provide a stepping stone to baccalaureate
 degree and is usually considered a "transfer" degree into baccalaureate programs, it was determined that this course should be added to the AA degree.  The motion to change this degree was submitted to the Faculty Senate for the 28 October meeting.
\par 
\par 3.  T
he committee discussed a proposal from the Foreign Language Department to change the "bonus credit" option as currently reflected in the catalog under Local Advanced Placement Credit so that it would be applicable to 400-level courses.  After discussion, 
the proposal was returned to the Foreign Language Department with some suggestions.
\par 
\par 4. After a review, the committee approved the acceptance of transfer credit by license/certificate for a student with Journeyman status in the Plumbing trades.
\par 
\par 5. The committee introduced and held preliminary discussion on several new issues which will be continued to our 22 October 2002 meeting.
\par \tab a.  Summer Sessions student credit enrollment policy
\par \tab b.  Regular academic year student credit enrollment policy

\par \tab In September the Committee raised concern over the arra

a
rticipants and questions by unidentified persons, and restricted audience size.  On 19 September, a meeting of concerned individuals, including Bret Simmons, Joan Leguard, Robert Hannon, Rich Siefert, Godwin Chukwu, Chancellor Lind, and the PR officer for
 the university, was held to discuss the issues. Some small concessions were made following the discussion.  FA  concludes that no further action is now recommended.

 exceptional work experience in the relevant field, or other outstanding qualifications, departments may wish to waive the GRE requirement for acceptance into a graduate program. The committee suggested that affected departments develop criteria for grant
ing a waiver. 
\par

\par 
\par Report to the Faculty Senate, 21 October 2002
\par Core Review Committee
\par 
\par Presented by Douglas Schamel, Chair
\par 
\par The Core Review Committee last met on 16 October.  
\par 
\par * We considered and voted on several petitions.  One petition requested waiver
 of lab credits, based upon 6 (count 'em, 6!) science courses completed without labs.  We denied that petition, and encouraged the student to enroll only in the lab portion of appropriate Core science courses.  We are investigating the availability of the
se courses. 
\par 
\par * We voted to remove non-compliant "O" and "W" courses from the Core.  These are courses that have not provided permission to include the appropriate prerequisites in the 2003-2004 ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ catalog.  
\par 
\par * We discussed a note from the Provost, which requests us to work with the Faculty Development Office to provide workshops on teaching "O" courses.  This is a direct result of poor performance by "O" courses in the 2001-02 assessment of the Core.
\par 
\par * We postponed discussion of adding a "technology" component to the Core.
\par 
\par * We postponed discussion of allowing Core courses to be used for major requirements.  Initial investigation indicates this should work fine for the B.S. degree, but perhaps not for the B.A.  
\par 
\par * Our next meeting will be 30 October, from 9:15 - 10:15.  The postponed items will be the main issues on the agenda.

\par Present:  Judy Atkinson, John Bruder, Rich Carr, Kat Gustafson, Cindy Hardy, Marjie Illingworth, Ron Illingworth, Wanda Martin, Joe Mason, Debbie Moses, Greg Owens, Jane Weber.
\par 
\par The Developmental Studies Committee met and discussed the following:
\par 
\par Planning Process:
\par 
\par The focus of this committee for the next several months will be to generate a plan for a Developme
ntal Studies program ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ-wide.  We have set up a meeting schedule with the goal of a face-to-face meeting in early spring to review what we've done and finalize the plan.   This will be accomplished through a series of subcommittee meetings, each of which
 will address a group of recommendations from the Developmental Studies assessment conducted last spring.
\par 
\par The subcommittees will divide up as follows:
\par 
\par Group A: Recommendations 1, 2, 3, 4, 7
\par 
\par Group B: Recommendations 6, 12, 13, 14
\par 
\par Group C: Recommendations 9, 10, 11
\par 
\par The committee as a whole has already addressed Recommendation 5 and will be addressing Recommendation 8, both through discipline subgroups and at the next meeting.
\par 
\par Recommendation 8:
\par 
\par This recommendation addresses the articulation between DEVE/M and subsequent academic classes.  The committee has divided into three subgroups (English, Math, Study Skills), which will bring recommendations back to the committee at the next meeting.
\par 
\par Budget:  Jane Weber and Cindy Hardy have worked up a budget and have given it to Bernice Joseph to present to Provost Reichardt.
\par 
\par Next Meeting:  The sub-groups on Recommendation 8 will be meeting before the next full committee meeting.
\par 
\par The next full committee meeting will be October 31, 2-3:30 p.m.

\par 
\par The FAOC met on Wednesday, October 16 at 2:15 PM. 
\par 
\par Members present were:  Chen, Duffy, Gold, Himelbloom, Juday, Kawagley, Khataniar, Layer, Parker-Webster, Riley, Stortz.  
\par 
\par There were three main agenda items discussed.
\par 
\par 1.  We discussed the motion clarifying the language regarding selection of a chair of administrator review committees.  This amendment was approved and forwarded to the Senate.
\par 
\par 2.  We request of all FAOC committee members that they inform Governance about their involvement on appeals committees.  In this way, we can begin to document committee activity, which has not been done to date.
\par 
\par 3.  We discussed the Administrator review process.  Although it seems 
that review of "Group A" administrators is progressing on a schedule (the Provost is being reviewed this year), it is less clear regarding "Group B" Directors.  The Senate motion states that "administrators be reviewed on a four year cycle" and that Group
 
B administrators "should be periodically reviewed by their immediate supervisory administrator according to a process established at the discretion of the supervisory administrator".  In most cases, the supervisory administrator is either the Provost or t
he Executive Dean of the College of Rural ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ.  Paul Layer and Julie Riley will be contacting these supervisors to inquire about a schedule and process for evaluation of the Group B administrators that they supervise.

The general consensus of the committee was that individual departments should have the right to establish their own criteria.  This would be 
true even if these departments are grouped with other departments to compose a unit peer review committee.  Chapter IV, section B5 states: \ldblquote 
The unit peer-review committee shall be composed of at least five (5) tenured faculty at the same or higher rank as the unit member being reviewed, with at least three (3) at the rank of full professor.\rdblquote

The draft does not really include the situation where unit criteria are not in place but are now being developed, in which case the default ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ criteria were used in the past.  This situation may have to be specified.

Abel Bult-Ito brought up the point that for continuing faculty who in the motion have the option to use the \ldblquote old\rdblquote  criteria or the new appr
oved criteria during a period not to exceed 7 years, might be amended so that the new approved unit criteria become active for everyone after going through a major review procedure, including tenure and promotion, tenure, or promotion, but excluding the 4

A suggestion was made to forward one issue to the Faculty Affairs Committee related to whose vote counts in unit peer reviews.  Currently some units require the peer review committee members to be present in person to have their vote count, 
while other units require the peer review committee member to express their vote whether present at the peer review committee meeting in person or not.

\par MINUTES
\par Ad Hoc Committee on Unit Criteria
\par October 11, 2002
\par 
\par 
\par Members Present:
\par 
\par Abel Bult-Ito (FDAIC); Gary Holton  (Curricular Affairs), chair; 
\par Dan Odess (Faculty Affairs); Julie Riley (Faculty Appeals)
\par 
\par Gary Holton was selected as committee chair.
\par 
\par No proposed unit criteria are currently before the committee for review, thus the committee met primarily to discuss policy issue regarding unit criteria. Several issues of concern had been identified prior to the meeting. These were discussed in turn.

\par 
\par Scope of unit criteria.
\par Under current policy the definition of "discipline-specific unit Criteria" (often abbreviated to 'unit criteria'). Existing unit criteria may apply to departments which are smaller than p
eer-review units (e.g., ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Native Language Center makes up only one part of the Language and Culture peer-review unit within CLA). In other cases existing criteria apply to now non-existent colleges (e.g., Natural Sciences) or schools (e.g., Engineeri
n
g).  It is not clear how criteria for reorganized departments, colleges and schools should apply. The committee will discuss this further. However, the committee agrees that in spite of the ill-defined term it should be possible for criteria to be develop
ed at any level (department, college, school) and would thus like to clarify the term "discipline-specific unit criteria".
\par 
\par Applicability of unit criteria when modified or adopted during a period of review. 
\par When criteria are modified during a faculty membe
r's review period (tenure, promotion, post-tenure), the faculty member should be able to choose which of the criteria in effect at any time during the review period apply. However, the length of time which a faculty member may use criteria which have been
 superceded should be limited. It was suggested that a review should fall under the new criteria as soon as a faculty member has undergone tenure or post-tenure review. It was decided that this issue needs to be addressed via a policy change.
\par 
\par Review of approved unit criteria.
\par Current policy requires that existing unit criteria be reviewed by the faculty of the unit at least every five years.  Policy needs to be changed to give faculty senate explicit oversight of the review process.  Revisions to criteria r
esulting from this 5-year review should go through the regular faculty senate approval process.  Units wishing to retain unit criteria without modification could do so by submitting a statement to this effect.  However, the committee is concerned that eve
n minor changes to unit criteria should require a full review process, due to their potential impact on faculty.
\par 
\par Development and adoption of unit criteria.
\par Current policy requires that a majority of the faculty in the discipline approve unit criteria, howe
ver, this policy is vague and unenforceable. The committee will address this by ensuring all faculty affected by a proposed unit criteria receive an invitation to attend the ad-hoc committee meetings when those criteria are discussed. It was also suggeste
d that, where unit criteria are proposed for large colleges, the criteria should be approved by a majority of the faculty in each department affected by the criteria. This latter issue should be addressed via a proposed policy change.
\par 
\par Requirement for unit criteria.
\par Current policy requires those units choosing not to adopt discipline-specific criteria to file a statement with the provost--only three units have done so. We would like some input from the provost as to how to encourage submission of criteria or
 statements in lieu of criteria. Perhaps deadlines could be set on a college by college basis, so that the committee is not deluged with new unit criteria all at once. The committee recommends that the response be at the department level, so that every de
partment has the opportunity to either develop unit criteria or choose to use existing criteria.
\par 
\par In order to clarify unit review criteria policy, the committee drafted a motion amending the Bluebook Chapter III, sect. E.  Committee members will discuss thi
s motion with the committees they represent with the goal of forwarding a revised motion to the full senate at the December meeting.
