The Faculty Senate will discuss communications sent to them from philosophy professor and Faculty Senate member Grant Sterling and Blair Lord, vice president for academic affairs, at their next meeting.

The meeting will take place 2 p.m. Tuesday in room 4440 of the Booth Library.

Faculty Senate member Grant Sterling submitted a resolution to the Faculty Senate regarding questions and concerns with vitalization project data.

The resolution asked that the Faculty Senate call on Eastern President David Glassman to extend all Workgroup deadlines by at least one month, remove the intercollegiate athletics spreadsheets; profit and loss, and Academic Program Summary Data PDF’s under the academic departments.

The resolution also asked to clearly instruct the Workgroups to ignore the reports and make no decisions based on the data they provided.

The last request on the resolution is to recalculate the data in light of concerns raised by the Senate, and upload them to the vitalization project webpage only after consultation with the Faculty Senate Executive Committee or the Budget Transparency Committee.

The communication from Lord concerns the Academic Year ’19 calendar.

Also set for discussion at the meeting is a request from Marita Gronnvoll, chair of the Council on Academic Affairs and communication studies professor concerning the staffing of the CAA.
