Correction: Faculty Senate Meeting Location


Welcome  to the Fall 2009 semester. I hope you had a relaxing and enjoyable summer. This year promises to be an exciting year for all of us as we look forward to working with a new President of the College and in continuing the fine work completed by the previous Senate leaders and membership. This year’s Executive Committee is composed of a mix of veteran committee chairs along with a few first time chairs, all who are ready to provide leadership and guidance to the Senate.

I encourage you to become involved in the Faculty Senate either as a senator, a member of an ad-hoc committee, or by providing feedback to your department representative. The strength of the Senate comes from the valuable work provided by a membership that actively participates in those areas of mutual concern to both the faculty and administration. This year we will have a few ad-hoc committees for which I will shortly be putting out a call for volunteers. One ad-hoc committee will be related to Assessment and Program Review and another will review the Professional Development awards process.  The first Faculty Senate meeting for the year will take place on Thursday, September 24 from 3:30 to 5:00 in Room 5-300. All are welcome to attend.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you have about the Senate. Have a successful (and healthy!) year. May our students be as excited about learning as we are about teaching and student success.
