Agenda Item VI: [ACTION ITEM] Value of ‘N’* for Faculty Council Elections: Bart Ng.

Ng Ng led the discussion on the determination of the value of N*, providing the Council with a spreadsheet of various calculations and scenarios.  The Council determined the [2006-08] value of ‘N’ to be 51; this value of N does not decrease any unit’s level of representation

 

*N is the variable used to determine the number of unit & representatives-at-large to be elected to the FC for 2006-08; it is  calculated at the end of every odd-numbered year.

 

Vice President Rosalie Vermette called the question on the motion to define the [2006-08] value of N as 51.  The motion carried, unanimously.

           

 

Agenda Item VII: [ACTION ITEM] From Academic Affairs – Updated Principles of Undergraduate Learning (“PULs”): Betty Jones (Chair – Academic Affairs Committee, 4.2248, betjones@iupui.edu).

Jones gave a second reading of the revised Principles of Undergraduate Learning (“PULs”), originally adopted by the IFC in 1998. Last year the issue of reviewing the PULs was presented to the Academic Affairs Committee.  In this draft of the PULs, the committee has attempted to address semantic and formatting inconsistencies, as well as issues relating to implementation and assessment.

 

After some discussion of the introduction to the document, Professor Bill Schneider moved that the procedural segment of the document and the principles themselves be separated for discussion and action.  Vermette called the question.  The motion carried (with some dissent).  The principles will be up for IFC action on January 10th.

 

The IFC leadership thanked Jones and her committee for their hard work.  IFC members should forward additional feedback on this issue to the Academic Affairs Committee via the IFC Office. 

 

 

Agenda Item VIII: Updates from Campus Facility Services: Emily Wren (Assistant Vice Chancellor for Facilities, ewren@iupui.edu).

Wren gave a presentation on Campus Facilities Services, energy management strategies, projected energy savings for the campus, and upcoming recycling initiatives.
