Faculty Senate
The purpose of the Faculty Senate is to share in the governance of the University by recommending and reviewing policies and working to make policies effective. The Senate retains significant responsibility for curricular review, the proposal of new courses and programs, and curriculum revision. The Senate functions primarily through its councils; the full Senate, with departmental representation, meets every two weeks during the academic semesters.
 
Please contact the Senate Executive Committee
with your questions and comments, or to suggest a meeting agenda item,
by emailing the Chair or any members of the Executive Committee.
