NIA: Sohail Chaudhry, Lowell Gustafson, Bijan Mobasseri Advertised Agenda: 1. Approval of Minutes 2. Faculty Awards Proposal - Rick Ekstein 3. Adjunct Faculty Report 4. APC Report 5. CoF Report 6. New Business 1. Status of Staff Representation Proposal: Bob Styer reported that the Senate Rules and Review Committee was continuing discussion of staff representation and would be sending some amendments to the Senate at its next meeting. 2. Q Chung presented the COF report. 1. Re: Ad hoc committee on Events Policy Joseph Schick and Seth Whidden (members of the ad hoc committee on the events policy) updated on the progress. The committee met twice and a proposal is being prepared. There will be much difference between the current draft and the version being proposed by the ad hoc committee. The ad hoc committee will submit the proposal to the Faculty Congress, and the chair of Faculty Congress will communicate it to COF and APC. 2. Fall 2007 Facultas Award The Fall 2007 Facultas Award winner was determined out of 35 nominees. Public announcement will appear in the Facultas newsletter. 3. Full-time Faculty Handbook Revision In addition to inviting faculty input from faculty by e-mail, Wiki will be set up for more direct interactions among faculty. (Thanks, Boots!) COF members are in the process of determining division of labor between COF and APC in reviewing the topics in the handbook. COF is reviewing the current handbook also to determine any omissions. Please note that all faculty are encouraged to review the Faculty Handbook for potential changes. Quoting the email instructions, Dear Colleagues, Dr. Lillian (Boots) Cassel, professor of Computing Science and Vice Chair of the Faculty Congress, has created a wiki for the Faculty handbook revision process at  HYPERLINK "http://what.csc.villanova.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/FacultyHandbook" http://what.csc.villanova.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/FacultyHandbook The user name is faculty and the password is handbook Obviously, these are not very secure.  The point is just to keep out the spammers.  Anything will do for that purpose. As you know, the Faculty Handbook serves largely as our contract. Thank you for your participation in the role faculty is playing in the revision of the handbook. Lowell Gustafson Chair, Faculty Congress 3. The APC reported on the new proposed degree policy. Substantial debate followed, with the primary issue being if a student double-majoring in both a science and in a humanities major should get two separate degrees. Eventually, the body approved the following motion (Bob Styer moved, Ed Kresch seconded): Whereas the proposed policy on degrees awarded is engendering vociferous and wide-ranging responses, the Faculty Congress recommends that the academic deans, the Senate and the Student Government Association hold discussions on the policy by all affected faculty and students before its going to the Board.  4. John Groch presented the Adjunct Faculty Committee Report. Adjunct Faculty Committee Report The Adjunct Faculty Committee is very appreciative of the Congress’ persistent support of the AFC’s efforts to establish an Adjunct Faculty Award. The AFC is very pleased that two awards will be given, each in the amount of $1,000, and that these awards will be presented at graduation. Members of the AFC who worked with Congress members and Rick Eckstein are particularly grateful that their efforts were successful in establishing a long-awaited tradition of recognition of teaching excellence by adjuncts. We intend to name the awards soon. The AFC is also grateful to Lowell Gustafson for his participation in the Adjunct Faculty social last month. His guest appearance is symbolic of our combined commitment to excellence in teaching and service at TikTokГЩШЫАц. The discussion highlighted the pay differentials for experience and guidelines for the Adjunct Teaching Award. Various benefits for adjuncts continue to be pursued, including clarifying the conditions under which adjunct dependents can live on campus, buying into medical benefits, use of athletic facilities, and participation in retirement plans. 5. Bernard Prusak presented a report on the full-time, non-tenure track faculty (FTNTTF). He began by outlining what he and Jim McGann, the two FTNTTF representatives, have so far done and learned. With the help of the VPAA’s office, they have identified 107 FTNTTF: 60 in Arts (56 percent); 17 in Sciences (16 percent); 12 in Nursing (11 percent); 9 in Business (8.5 percent); and 9 in Engineering (8.5 percent). As of this meeting, 43 FTNTTF had responded to a survey sent out 9/17, for a 40 percent response rate. This survey, whose questions Bernard distributed at the meeting, is aimed at developing a profile of the FTNTTF at the University. With the help of UNIT, there is now a discussion board for FTNTTF with two initial questions: the first asking what issues and concerns these faculty have; the second asking for suggestions or proposals to address these issues and concerns. Bernard identified a number of issues and concerns that have so far been raised (on the discussion board, through correspondence, and at a 10/25 meeting of FTNTTF): salary; retirement benefits; voting rights in departments; security and promotion; and sabbatical. Bernard also briefly discussed what he and Jim plan to do next. At the end of October, they asked Jim Trainer of OPTIR for help in learning more about FTNTTF at the University. In particular, they asked him whether the numbers of FTNTTF have grown over the last several decades at TikTokГЩШЫАц, as they have nationally. (Bernard distributed at the meeting a graph showing “Trends in Faculty Status, 1975-2005” compiled by the AAUP.) Jim Trainer agreed to compile this data; once they have it, Bernard and Jim McGann will call another meeting of FTNTTF and then make another, fuller report to the Congress. 6. Boots Cassel asked for volunteers to serve on the Salary, Benefits, and Terms of Employment Committee of the Congress. 7. The Senate Budget Committee reported that the numbers overall seem promising for faculty raises. Overall, the tentative budget has both good and bad news for faculty. 8. Ed Kresch reported that the ad-hoc Chair Selection Protocol task force is almost finished negotiating a new policy with the VPAA and deans. 9. The meeting adjourned at 5:10pm.     ‘ Ж ъ ђ џ ')Зчђѓ ЖЗIJЃГДЫ Bcdьќ +ш ; B J Š ‘ ы б"в"д"е"з"и"к"л"п"ќєќяќєќєќєќъќъќтќзтбтќХќХќОКОКГКГКГКГКГКГКГќтќтќтќтќ hhвoRhвoR h5shвoRhnœCJOJQJaJ hnœ0JjhnœUjhnœU hnœo( hnœ6hnœB*phhnœ4JKЂ Ѓ н о ё  3 N ] l | } ~ e f Ž З И ^ _ { | џ (§§§§§§§ћћћћћћ§§§§§ѕѕяѕѕѕяѕѕ„ ^„ „а^„аб"о"ўў()И5|ЖLM§ў@AЂЃДЬЭЮ >?€љыыыщщљљљљљљљљљљљљљщщщщљљщщ & F Ц8„^„„а^„аЂЃШЩЈЉ  бвЊЋ•–ы ь i!j!""Љ"Њ"б"г"д"§§ј§ј§§§ѓѓыѓыѓыѓѓ§§§§§§§§§§ & FgdвoRgdвoR & Fд"ж"з"й"к"м"н"о"п"§§§§§§§§01h/R Аа/ Ар=!А"А# $ %ААаАа аѕDаЩъyљКЮŒ‚ЊKЉ рЩъyљКЮŒ‚ЊKЉ „http://what.csc.villanova.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/FacultyHandbook†œ@@ёџ@ NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH DA@ђџЁD Default Paragraph FontViѓџГV  Table Normal :V і4ж4ж laі (kєџС(No List 4@ђ4 Header  ЦрР!4 @4 Footer  ЦрР!@Z@@ Plain TextCJOJQJaJVўЂ!V Plain Text Char CJOJQJ_HaJmH sH tH 4U@Ђ14 Hyperlink >*phџп 0џџџџJKЂЃноё3N]l|}~efŽЗИ^_{|џ()И5|ЖL M § ў @ A Ђ Ѓ Д Ь Э Ю  > ? €  Ђ Ѓ ШЩЈЉ  бвЊЋ•–ыьijЉЊбдзкнр˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜ 0€€˜ 0€€˜ 0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜ 0€€˜0€€˜ 0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜ 0€€˜0€€˜ 0€€˜0€€˜ 0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€ш00=ш00=ш00=ш00=ш00l=ыръа004 @00m 00с п"(д"п"о"Ж I пXџŒ№8№@ёџџџџџ€€€ї№’№№0№( № №№B №S №ПЫџ ?№“˜"9?zˆ—žЉЏАИвл*1`cЯжltŠ’ъђH M \b‹‘›ЁчэТШ{бз#)'-v|7;ŠЎД$ббггдджзйкмнр€„‘˜†  t ƒ т№+Э=ыьббггдджзйкмнр3333333)4nnЁ|Ю  ар"l BЬ,1џџџџџџџџџA~š€я60џџџџџџџџџ]чq.хвЅџџџџџџџџџh„8„˜ўЦ8^„8`„˜ўOJQJo(‡hˆHЗ№h„„˜ўЦ^„`„˜ўOJQJ^Jo(‡hˆHoh„и „˜ўЦи ^„и `„˜ўOJQJo(‡hˆHЇ№h„Ј „˜ўЦЈ ^„Ј `„˜ўOJQJo(‡hˆHЗ№h„x„˜ўЦx^„x`„˜ўOJQJ^Jo(‡hˆHoh„H„˜ўЦH^„H`„˜ўOJQJo(‡hˆHЇ№h„„˜ўЦ^„`„˜ўOJQJo(‡hˆHЗ№h„ш„˜ўЦш^„ш`„˜ўOJQJ^Jo(‡hˆHoh„И„˜ўЦИ^„И`„˜ўOJQJo(‡hˆHЇ№„а„˜ўЦа^„а`„˜ўo()€ „ „˜ўЦ ^„ `„˜ў‡hˆH.‚ „p„LџЦp^„p`„Lџ‡hˆH.€ „@ „˜ўЦ@ ^„@ `„˜ў‡hˆH.€ „„˜ўЦ^„`„˜ў‡hˆH.‚ „р„LџЦр^„р`„Lџ‡hˆH.€ „А„˜ўЦА^„А`„˜ў‡hˆH.€ „€„˜ўЦ€^„€`„˜ў‡hˆH.‚ „P„LџЦP^„P`„Lџ‡hˆH.„а„˜ўЦа^„а`„˜ўo(.€ „ „˜ўЦ ^„ `„˜ў‡hˆH.‚ „p„LџЦp^„p`„Lџ‡hˆH.€ „@ „˜ўЦ@ ^„@ `„˜ў‡hˆH.€ „„˜ўЦ^„`„˜ў‡hˆH.‚ „р„LџЦр^„р`„Lџ‡hˆH.€ „А„˜ўЦА^„А`„˜ў‡hˆH.€ „€„˜ўЦ€^„€`„˜ў‡hˆH.‚ „P„LџЦP^„P`„Lџ‡hˆH.]чq"l A~šџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџ                           хвoRnœЗрa—џ@€ыы(n$ыып @џџUnknownџџџџџџџџџџџџG‡z €џTimes New Roman5€Symbol3& ‡z €џArial7& ‡ ŸVerdana95  я K @ŸConsolas?5 ‡z €џCourier New;€Wingdings"1ˆ№аhяЋС&яЋС&іCСFб 0б 0!№ ДД4dФФ2ƒq№мHX №џ?фџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџвoR2џџEMinutes of the Faculty Congress meeting, September 13, 4pm, Radnor/StwpccsSupport   ўџр…ŸђљOhЋ‘+'Гй0Ф˜ №ќ $8 HT t € Œ ˜ЄЌДМфHMinutes of the Faculty Congress meeting, September 13, 4pm, Radnor/Stwpccs Normal.dotSupport2Microsoft Office Word@FУ#@фу—8RШ@КыФn\Ш@КыФn\ШбўџеЭеœ.“—+,љЎDеЭеœ.“—+,љЎ|8 hpˆ˜  ЈАИР Ш фNCS Customer0 Ф' FMinutes of the Faculty Congress meeting, September 13, 4pm, Radnor/St Title 8@ _PID_HLINKSфAМABhttp://what.csc.villanova.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/FacultyHandbookЯ ўџџџ ўџџџ"#$%&'()*+,-./012ўџџџ456789:ўџџџ<=>?@ABўџџџ§џџџEўџџџўџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџRoot Entryџџџџџџџџ РFРмпn\ШG€Data џџџџџџџџџџџџ1Tableџџџџ!i"WordDocumentџџџџ20SummaryInformation(џџџџџџџџџџџџ3DocumentSummaryInformation8џџџџџџџџ;CompObjџџџџџџџџџџџџqџџџџџџџџџџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџўџ џџџџ РFMicrosoft Office Word Document MSWordDocWord.Document.8є9Вq
