April+3+Meeting

// (Select “edit,” list your issues or comment on any others listed, then select “save.” If you want to see how the document has evolved, select “history.”) // Beth (Graduate Studies and Professional Development) Joy (Secondary Ed and Transition to Teaching Programs) The secondary faculty approved admissions changes at our March meeting that we will want to share. Since I will not be at the April 3rd meeting, these changes can wait until the next meeting or someone else (Sharon Jamison) can share them. The changes do not go into effect for the incoming block I students. I can give Pat a report on the numbers for T2T applicants, if people are interested. Anne (Elementary Ed) Jackie (Technology Committee and Long-Range Planning) The Technology Committee would like to share brief highlights from our sub-committees: online courses and structures/hardware. For the May meeting, the Committee would like to have time to share our final report. There will be survey for faculty to take if time at the April meeting. The Long range planning committee is regrouping. I will not have anything to share this meeting but will for May. Jadora (Merit Review—Non tenure-track faculty) Charlie (Merit Review—Tenure-track faculty) Jose (Policy Council Diversity Committee) Paula (Policy Council Education Committee) Chalmer (Policy Council ) I tested this out before and lost everything I wrote! Let me try again. We need to bring closure to the resolution we created and that which was voted on at the IFC meeting last year. We've postponed the intended voting for several reasons but mainly because there was a need by many to spell out more specifically how we wanted to proceed, if at all. Now that we've had the report from McRobbie and the ensuing report for SOE, what does faculty want to do now? Even if we decide not to go any further, or that we want to postpone until certain circumstances are in place, we need to do this since we've already started the process and need to not let this situation remain "hanging." Rob (Policy Council Graduate Committee) Samantha (Policy Council IUPUI Grievance Committee) Elee (Policy Council International Committee)--NONE Erik (Policy Council Lectures and Seminars Committee)--NONE Chris (Promotion and Tenure Committee) I don't have anything on P&T for this meeting. Dwight (Policy Council Recruitment, Admissions and Financial Aid Committee) Josh (Policy Council Research and Development Committee) Linda (IUPUI Teacher Education Committee) Robin (Policy Council Diversity Committee)--Faculty Governance and AAUP. We might think about inviting someone in to chat Keith (IUPUI Faculty Affairs and Budgetary Committee)
