2010 Faculty Elections - Candidates' Statements

Posted on by

Nominees for 2010 faculty elections are invited to use this space to post statements concerning their nominations for faculty committees or other elected positions. This is purely voluntary and is intended primarily as a means for newer faculty to introduce themselves to the wider faculty prior to the election (although any faculty nominee should feel free to post a statement). This space is not intended as a Q & A forum.

On the first line, please post your name, department, and the committee or position for which you are running. Follow that with your brief statement.

Cheers!

Credit Model Discussion

Posted on by

The Credit Model Task Force released two reports examining the credit model issue. Because the March Faculty Meeting was canceled due to weather concerns, we will be discussing the reports at the April meeting and voting at the May meeting. In the meantime, this blog has been created to serve as an impromptu forum for asking and answering questions and concerns about the credit model proposals. Use the Reply area below to join the discussion. We have included the original reports, as well as those concerns and questions that have already been distributed via email below:
