MEMORANDUM To: Professor Jan Tovey Chair of the Faculty From: Steve Ballard Chancellor Date: October 22, 2008 Subject: Faculty Senate Resolutions 08-37 and 08-38 I recommend that Resolution 08-37 be referred to the UNC Tomorrow Task Force for further consideration/study. The findings of the UNC Tomorrow Commission and the response of ECU to the guidelines of the Commission were filed before action on this resolution was taken. This resolution deals with issues that are under consideration by the Strategic Enrollment Management Task Force. The issues that are brought forward in the Faculty Senate resolution are part of the dialogue that is ongoing and will continue with the SEM Task Force. While Resolution 08-38 (Department of Psychology Unit Code of Operations) was returned previously for failure of VIII. B. Unit Administrator Evaluations to comply with university policy, it has been determined that the revised resolution contains a number of statements that fail to comply with Appendix D of the Faculty Manual. Therefore, I will reject Resolution 08-38 and ask that it be reviewed by the Faculty Senate Unit Code Screening Committee for adherence to Appendix D and for attention to minor editorial changes. Ms. Linda Ingalls in the Provost’s Office is available for consultation on these particular issues. Email copies: Mr. Robert J. Greczyn Jr., Chair, ECU Board of Trustees Faculty Senate Officers Dr. Marilyn Sheerer, Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic and Student Life Dr. Phyllis Horns, Interim Vice Chancellor for Health Sciences Dr. Deirdre Mageean, Vice Chancellor for Research and Graduate Studies
