Faculty Assembly Delegates
Representation in the Faculty Assembly is apportioned among the
constituent institutions of the University of North Carolina according
to the number of
full-time equivalent faculty positions allocated to each institution. Thus,
Appalachian is apportioned four delegates to the Assembly. By action
of the
Faculty Senate of Appalachian, the Chair of the Senate serves as head of Appalachian's
delegation to
the Assembly, with the Vice Chair of the Senate
serving as his/her alternate. The remaining three delegates and two alternates
are elected by the faculty when a seat is vacant or a term expires during the
spring term prior to March 31. The Chair of the Faculty Senate serves
a one (1) year term coterminously with her or his position as Chair, with the
three
(3) elected delegates serving three (3) year terms. Terms of the three-year
delegates are staggered.
Role of Faculty Assembly Delegates
Although it is assumed Appalachian's Faculty Assembly
delegates will vote their conscience, it is also assumed that they will convey
to the Faculty
Assembly, and to the President of the University of North Carolina, resolutions
approved by the Faculty Senate and/or general faculty and specifically
addressed to the Assembly. This role includes the written rationale provided
by the Senate and/or general faculty in support of a resolution. Any
Assembly delegate is free to disagree with such a resolution and the rationale
behind it once the resolution has been presented. The Chair of the Faculty
Senate (or alternate), being a delegate to the Assembly, reports to the Senate
actions taken by the Assembly on such resolutions.
Replacement of Faculty Assembly Delegates
In the event that an elected delegate to
the Faculty Assembly must vacate office for the balance of a term, that delegate's
alternate will automatically become the permanent delegate and serve out the
balance of the term of the replaced delegate.
In the event that an elected alternate delegate
to the Faculty Assembly must vacate his or her office by either becoming a permanent
replacement for an elected delegate or by resignation, the Chair of the Faculty
Senate nominates a replacement for the now vacant alternate and, upon approval
of the Senate, appoints the replacement to serve until the next regular election
of Assembly delegates.
In the event that an elected delegate is
unable to fulfill the responsibilities of office for a temporary period, that
delegate is replaced by an alternate for the duration of the absence. The
Chair of the Senate fills the vacancy of the alternate by nominating a replacement
who, upon approval of the Senate, serves until such time that the elected alternate
delegate is able to resume office.
