Faculty Council Minutes: December 4, 2003

Inlow Hall, Moot Court Room (IH 100): 3:30 – 5:30 pm

Attendance Record and Original Agenda follow Adjournment as Attachments

 

 

Agenda Item I: Call to Order: Bart Ng (IUPUI Faculty Vice-President, 4-8185, bng@math.iupui.edu ).

Ng called the meeting to order at 3:31pm. 

 

Agenda Item II: Adoption of the Order of Business for the Day.

The agenda was adopted as the order of business for the day.

 

Agenda Item III: [ACTION ITEM] Election of 2004-06 At-Large Representative for the Promotion and Tenure Committee: Dolores Hoyt (Nominating Committee Chair, 4-0474, dhoyt@iupui.edu).

Nominating Committee Chair, Dolores Hoyt, and her committee distributed ballots for the election of 2004-06 At-Large Representative to the Promotion and Tenure Committee.  Following collection of the ballots and tallying by three members of the Nominating Committee, Carole Gall was announced as the new representative.  Her term commenced immediately upon election.  Vermette moved to destroy the ballots.  Baldwin seconded.  Ng called the question and the motion was approved unanimously.

 

Agenda Item IV: [ACTION ITEM] FC 10/2/03 Minutes & FC 11/6/03 – Up for Approval.

With corrections made re: the status of ongoing Dean searches, the minutes for 10/2/03 and 11/6/03 were approved unanimously following a motion by Wagner and second by Kloesel.

 

Agenda Item V: [ACTION ITEM] Value of ‘N’ for Faculty Council Elections (the variable used to determine the number of unit & at-large representatives to be elected to the FC for 2004-06; calculated at the end of every odd-numbered year).

Ng led the discussion on the determination of ‘N,’ providing the Council with a spreadsheet of various calculations and scenarios.  The Council determined the value of ‘N’ to be 51 for 2003-05; this value of N does not decrease any unit’s level of representation and also accounts for the addition of a new representative position from the School of Informatics.  Following a motion by Yokomoto and a second by Watt, the question was called and ‘N=51’ was approved unanimously.

 

Agenda Item VI: Chancellor's Report: Charles Bantz (IUPUI Chancellor & IU Vice-President).

Plater reported on the Chancellor’s behalf and discussed the results of the Fall 2003 Faculty Census (generated by the Office of Faculty Records), per a hand-out distributed.

 

He then announced that the implementation team for the recommendations made by the Campus Non-Violence Task Force had been convened (Sara Hook, Ellen Poffenberger, Joe Scodro and Karen Whitney) and begun their work.

 

The implementation of possible educational programming and new restrictions on smoking in entryways is being discussed by the task force on Campus Smoking Policies and Initiatives.

 

Agenda Item VII: President's Report: Mary Fisher (IUPUI Faculty President & UFC Co-Secretary, 4-8027, mlfisher@iupui.edu).

Fisher reminded the Council of University President Adam Herbert’s visit to the January 13th meeting.  A reception will follow the meeting.  All faculty are encouraged to attend as there will be the opportunity to ask questions.  Fisher also reminded the faculty of the new practice of meeting on the first Tuesday of each month (beginning in February; the January meeting will be held on the second Tuesday).

 

Fisher thanked all faculty who were able to attend the Inauguration of Charles Bantz earlier in the day.  She enjoyed speaking on behalf of the faculty and remarked that the ceremony was an important moment for the entire IUPUI community.

 

She then detailed a recent move by the University Faculty Council who have drafted a statement regarding the importance of pragmatism in the review of Internal Review Boards across the university system, following recent unfortunate events at IPFW.  The statement, urging that IRBs be reviewed individually rather than blanketed with new restrictions or consolidation, has been sent to President Herbert.

Fisher then reminded the Council of the work awaiting the group in Spring 2004.  Although Fall agenda dealt with more administrative matters, the second semester will bring committee projects and numerous elections.

Agenda Item VIII: [ANNOUNCEMENT] New protocol for orienting new deans to faculty governance. Fisher announced that she and Ng will begin meeting with new Deans on an one-on-one basis to introduce them to the tenants of faculty governance and discuss school involvement.

Agenda Item IX: Question / Answer Period.

No discussion.

 

Agenda Item X: Unfinished Business?

No discussion.

 

Agenda Item XI: New Business?

No discussion.

 

Agenda Item XII: Adjournment.

The motion was made (Wagner) and seconded (Schneider) to adjourn. Ng adjourned the meeting at 4:36pm.
