Annual report of the Faculty Handbook Committee:
We took up, but did not act on a proposal from the Council of Chairs regarding
structures to deal with faculty members judged disruptive in performing their
DPC duties.
We submitted to Senate numerous proposals for cleaning up language in the
Handbook, and these were passed by Senate in October.
We submitted on behalf of the Graduate School its new proposed guidelines
for graduate faculty that would become a part of the faculty constitution.
The Senate did not approve them at its October meeting.
We have been given the charge to draft language for constitutional reform
that is presently being considered by the Senate.
We should add a section to the Handbook that defines the duties and committee
responsibilities of the Senate chairperson, since those are not now identified.
