Requesting volunteers for presidential and other university committees
Dear Colleagues,
Thank you to those who volunteered for Faculty Senate committees recently. We are also looking for faculty members and professional staff members to serve on presidential and other university committees. Because these committees are an essential element of the university's shared governance initiative, I strongly encourage you to consider serving on one or more of them in the upcoming academic years.
The names of each committee, along with the number of members needed, are listed below. For presidential and other university committees and councils, Faculty Senate is asked to recommend appointments, with the final selection being made by those who oversee the committees. The length of term for each committee can vary from one to three years. Should you need further information about one or more of these committees, please contact the current chair of the committee. Their names are listed in the Committee Handbook.
If you have an interest in serving on one or more of the following committees, please complete a committee interest form. This helps tremendously as we make committee appointments and recommendations.
I appreciate hearing from you by no later than Monday, May 15. Thank you for considering this important component of shared governance. I look forward to working with you during the coming academic year.
Cordially,
Don Von Bergen
