October 15, 1990:


MOTION PASSED AS AMENDED (15 ayes, 12 against)
===========================

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate moves to establish a 14-week instructional 
period for the Fairbanks campus with provision for an additional 
examination period during each semester.


	EFFECTIVE: 	Fall 1991

	RATIONALE:	The rational for the 14 week semester was 
		based on the discussions relative to the original motion, 
		and reestablishes the status quo of three years ago.  
		Feedback from the Chancellor and from students 
		indicated the need for a separate examination period, 
		which was not provided for in the original motion 
		approved by the Senate and modified by the Chancellor.



Signed:  John Leipzig, President, 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate    Date:  10/16/90

Approved:  Patrick J. O'Rourke, Chancellor    	Date:  11/16/90

 N.B.  The examination period is in addition to the 14 weeks of instruction.

Approved:  Patrick J. O'Rourke, Chancellor    	Date:  11/16/90

 N.B.  To the extent that this is possible it will be done.  In finally 
balancing the calendar, there is a degree of trade off that is needed 
between the beginning and end of a semester.  (PJO'R)

		to examine the issues of how much time is needed to 
		deliver courses.

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #21 on 
October 15, 1990:


MOTION PASSED AS AMENDED (unanimous approval)
===========================

defining the role and duties of the department head, and to establish 
the procedures for the election of department heads at the 
University of 有料盒子视频 Fairbanks:


The following is a description of the role and duties of the 
department head, and procedures for the election of department 
heads at the University of 有料盒子视频 Fairbanks.  The size and 
composition of departments and programs are defined by each 
individual college and school.


I	ROLE OF THE DEPARTMENT HEAD

		[[1.]] 15.  (D.  PJO'R)

E.	Term of Elected Department Head

	A department head shall serve for a term of two years, 
	beginning July 1, following his/her election.  The department 
	head may continue in the position indefinitely by a simple

	RATIFICATION OF THE DEAN.  (D.  PJO'R)

F.	Non Ratification of Election, Grievance, Vacancies, Recall

	1.	In the event a dean does not ratify the department's 
		election of a department head, the dean shall discuss the 
		reasons in writing with the department and hold another 
		election no later than May 1.  In the event an impasse 
		develops, final authority to appoint an acting department 
		head for one year shall rest with the Vice Chancellor for 
		Academic Affairs.

	2.	If an action of the department head is appealed by a 
		simple majority of the eligible voting members of the 
		department and the issue cannot be resolved within the 
		department, the matter shall be referred to the dean for 
		arbitration.  If necessary, the dean will refer the matter 
		to the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. (See 
		Section F.5. for recall procedure.)

	3.	If the department head's position becomes vacant due to 
		RESIGNATION, unexpected prolonged leave, illness, death,

		THE DEAN, the new department head will take office 
		immediately and serve the unexpired term.  (F.  PJO'R)

[[G.	Compensation

	Department heads' compensation will be based upon a number 
	of factors which include length of the department head's 
	faculty appointment, size of the department, and the 
	complexity of its program.  In recognition of the amount of 
	time required to perform in the service component, release 
	time at a minimum of one course per semester, as well as a 
	minimum of one month's additional salary, shall be provided as 
	compensation for all department heads.  In cases of larger 
	departments or extraordinary workload, additional 
	compensation may be necessary.]]  (H.  PJO'R)



	EFFECTIVE: 	Upon Chancellor's Approval

	RATIONALE:	The University has evolved considerably since 
		the last policy and procedures for department heads was 
		promulgated in 1971.  That evolution has evidenced a 
		need for certain amplification and clarification of the 
		original document.  In addition, a change in perspective 
		of the document, more in consonance with the concept of 
		faculty governance, was needed. 



Signed:  John Leipzig, President, 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate    Date:  10/16/90

Approved with Modifications indicated:  Patrick J. O'Rourke, Chancellor    
	Date:  11/15/90


A.	Indicates responsibility for course scheduling.
B. 	Establishes dep't heads responsibility and authority for 
	obtaining these reports.  This has been an issue with some 
	faculty in the past.  
C. 	Workload must also be in accordance with University policy.
D. 	Clarifies that there is ratification required by the dean.
E.	Most frequent cause of vacancy is resignation.
F.	Again clarifies the ratification process and allows dean to 
	initiate removal, if necessary.
G. 	Allows 2 additional weeks for department and dean to work 
	out differences, should they occur.
H.	Deleted this section for the following reasons:
	1.	Compensation policies are set by the Board of Regents on 
		a statewide basis.  Thus, such a policy requiring dollars 
		rather than release time would have an impact on UAA & 
		UAS as well.  Such a policy should be advanced through 
		the General Assembly.
	2.	There is a monetary impact caused by this section which 
		有料盒子视频 could not meet.  I estimate approximately $387.0 
		would be required for implementation.
	3.	Two course releases per year plus one month's salary is 
		excessive for some small departments.
	4.	Requirements for paying additional salary limits future 
		flexibility for departmental configurations due to 
		financial considerations.

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #21 on 
October 15, 1990:


MOTION PASSED (unanimous approval)
===============


The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate moves to approve the following guidelines 
for oral communication intensive courses:


1.	GENERAL GUIDELINES:
	
	a	A minimum of 15% of the final course grade should be based 
on effectiveness of oral communication.  This minimum is proposed 
so that a student's failure to attend to the oral communication 
aspects of his or her work in an "O" designated course will have an 
important effect on his or her final grade for the course, while at 
the same time not overshadowing the importance of subject matter 
mastery.

	b.	Attention to oral communication in "O" designated courses 
must be developmental, in that students need the opportunity (i) to 
receive intermediate instructor assistance in developing 
presentational competency, (ii) to utilize their communication 
competency across the span of the semester, not just in a final 
project, and (iii) to receive instructor feedback on the success of 
their efforts at each stage.  

	c.	Exceptions to these guidelines may be made by the [[CLA]] 
CORE Curriculum COMMITTEE [[Council]] because of unique 
circumstances in individual departments.


2.	SPECIFIC GUIDELINES FOR "O" DESIGNATED COURSES EMPHASIZING 
ORAL COMMUNICATION IN PUBLIC CONTEXTS:
	
	a.	Each student must be involved in the individual preparation 
and delivery of at least 3 course related presentations of at least 5 
minutes duration each, to an audience of at least 12 persons. **

	b.	At least one presentation must involve questions from the 
audience and responses by the presenter.

	c.	All presentations must have a clear introduction-body-
conclusion organization, appropriate to the discipline.

	d.	All presentations should receive evaluation by the 
instructor on oral communication competency (including 
responsiveness to audience questions), as well as on subject 
mastery.

	e.	Students must receive, as part of the course structure, 
information/instruction on effective speaking, on organization of 
material for effective presentation, and on development and use of 
media and visual aids.

3.	SPECIFIC GUIDELINES FOR "O" DESIGNATED COURSES EMPHASIZING 
ORAL COMMUNICATION IN GROUP CONTEXTS:

	a.	Each student must be involved in at least one ongoing group 
project or team of 5 to 8 members, with the group spanning 4 to 7 
weeks duration.  Group projects must be a coordinated, integrated 
effort by the group members, not simply 5 to 8 individual projects 
put together.

	b.	Each student must present both an intermediate and a final 
presentation on an aspect of the group's work during the span of the 
project or team.

	c.	Both presentations must be at least 5 minutes in length, 
must be given to an audience (e.g., the rest of the class), must be 
integrated with the presentation of the other group members, and 
must include additional time for a question and answer period.

	d.	Each presentation should receive evaluation by the 
instructor on oral communication competency, as well as on subject 
mastery.  In addition, the instructor should evaluate the degree of 
coherence in the overall presentation of the entire group.  Students 
should receive both an individual and group grade for the 
presentation.

	e.	Students must receive, as part of the course structure, 
information/instruction on how groups function most effectively, on 
organization of material for effective presentation, and on 
development and use of media and visual aids.


4.	SPECIFIC GUIDELINES FOR "O" DESIGNATED COURSES EMPHASIZING 
ORAL COMMUNICATION IN TECHNICAL PRESENTATION CONTEXTS:

	a.	Each student must be involved in the preparation and 
delivery either of 2 or more course related presentations of at least 
20 minutes duration each or of 3 or more presentations of at least 
10 minutes duration each. It is highly desirable and strongly 
encouraged for the benefit of the student that one of the 
presentations be to an audience of 12 or more. The remaining 
presentations need to be to an audience of 5 or more. It is also 
desirable that the presentation to the larger group be given in a 
large auditorium and involve the use of a public address system.

	b.	All presentations must involve question and answer 
interaction with at least one assigned respondent, with questions by 
other audience members encouraged.

	c.	In a course with 3 presentations, it is highly desirable that 
one of the three presentations be video-taped, either in or outside of 
class. Such video taped presentations need to involve at least the 
presenter and the respondent, and must be viewed by these 
individuals with the instructor present to provide feedback on oral 
communication effectiveness in the presentation and response.

	d.	For individual presentations that relate to a common theme 
or project, it is highly desirable that the presentations be organized 
in a panel format, with a student moderator.

	e.	All presentations must have a clear introduction-body-
conclusion organization, appropriate to the discipline.

	f.	At least one presentation must involve the development and 
use of appropriate visual aids, and it is desirable that all 
presentations do so.

	g.	All presentations should receive evaluation by the 
instructor on oral communication competency (including 
responsiveness to audience questions), as well as on subject 
mastery.

	h.	Students must receive, as part of the course structure, 
information/instruction on effective speaking, effective responding, 
organization of material for effective presentation, and on 
development and use of media and visual aids. If thematic panels are 
used, students should also receive instruction on panel/symposium 
and moderator techniques.


** Research in Speech Communication, as well as in Social 
Psychology, shows that in interaction with groups smaller than 10-
11 persons, communicators are able to keep track of others as 
individual persons and to adjust their communication efforts 
accordingly, much as they do when interacting with only one or two 
others. In groups of 10-11 or more individuals, this ability rapidly 
diminishes, so that 12 persons is a recognized minimum audience for 
developing the competencies needed in public communication 
contexts, as opposed to those required in small group communication 
contexts.


	EFFECTIVE: 	Upon Chancellor's Approval

	RATIONALE:	This motion will place into policy the course 
		guidelines necessary to meet the oral intensive 
		requirements for the core.

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #21 on 
October 15, 1990:


MOTION PASSED (unanimous approval)
===============

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate moves to refer to the Faculty Affairs 
committee the proposed policy and regulation on intellectual 
properties.  The committee will include in their deliberations the 
following concerns expressed by Graduate Council.

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate moves to recommend approval of the 
proposed policy and regulation on intellectual properties with the 
following comments:

1.	Section B.2. says the University President may appoint an 
	Intellectual Property Officer, but Section B.3. says the 
	Intellectual Property Committee will be composed of the 
	Intellectual Property Officer and five faculty members.  This 
	inconsistency should be clarified.

2.	Section C.l. says that exemptions to assign inventions and 
	patents to the university may be authorized but it is not clear 
	who will authorize the exemptions. This should be clarified.

3.	In Section C.3., it is recommended that the chart showing the 
	share distribution of net royalty proceeds be moved up in the 
	paragraph, to just after the sentence which ends with ". . . as 
	shown below."

4.	Concern was expressed about the share of royalty income 
	allocated to the inventor; an increase in the inventor's share 
	would provide further incentive.

5.	Concern was stated about the title "Intellectual Property 
	Officer'' being an odd expression.

6.	The Graduate Council recommends that the policy be adopted, 
	with the proviso that it be funded within current fiscal and 
	administrative resources and personnel.


	EFFECTIVE: 	Immediately

	RATIONALE:	This motion allows for the Senate to 
		disseminate this proposal more widely throughout the 
		faculty.

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #21 on 
October 15,1990:


RESOLUTION PASSED (unanimous approval)
===================

The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate moves to endorse the recommendations of 
the Ad Hoc Committee on Quality Review of Programs.

Committee Members:

F.M. Husby, SALRM, Chair
John Daly, SCCE
John Olson, CNS
John Whitehead, CLA
Nag Rao, CRA


This committee agrees with the concept of a formal external 
evaluation of program quality in the University of 有料盒子视频 System but 
feels that the present form of the document needs some additional 
statements to broaden the scope of review and to address some 
concerns of the faculty.

As presented, the document needs both clarification and direction 
before implementation and action. Prior to further input by the 
faculty, the document should be written as a policy statement to 
represent the whole University of 有料盒子视频 system. Minor details 
should be omitted from the policy statement (i.e., item D., sentence 
2 "given a list of questions" approved by the Board of Regents) but 
implemented later by members of the specific campus or unit 
administration and faculty senate.

The policy statement should include:

	1.	The need for the initial evaluation to be of the statewide 
		system (including statewide administrative structure) to 
		review structure, program duplication and the need for 
		program development.

	2.	A review that covers the three campuses as one system 
		and then each campus and its individual program 
		structure.

	3. 	Retain options for individual campuses, units and faculty

	4. 	Specify the groups or individuals that will be responsible 
		for the final decision to accept or reject the evaluation.

In addition to the above, concern was expressed as to the frequency 
and cost of reviews. The university budget should include an 
increment for the cost of bringing in outside accrediting boards 
from other than the unit under evaluation. The frequency of reviews 
would also increase the cost to the university system. The Board of 
Regents and administration should be aware of all potential long 
term costs to the system prior to accepting or rejecting an 
evaluation that would create major budget demands.
