Conclusion:

We conclude that there is widespread dissatisfaction with
the present functioning of the Faculty, but this does not constitute
a lack of confidence in the ?aculty as the majOr educational policy-
formulating body of the University. On the contrary, there appears
to be a strong body of sentiment that the Faculty should assume a more
dynamic role in the determination of the University's future. In
part, the failure of the Faculty to function in accordance with
the desires of administrative andieaching personnel is attributable
to remediable defects in its organization andbperatiig procedures.
But it is also recognized that before a representative body of the
Fuculty can e fectively assume its delegated responsibilities, its
constituent members must have a clear knowledge of what these
responsibilities are and, above all, they must be willing to make
the sacrifices of time and energy which are required for the successful
discharge of these duties.

responsibilities of the University Faculty.

Part II c? this Repart states the Committee's Views on the

 

II

Recommended Role 0! the University Faculty

It is our belief that a thoroughly informed, responsible Faculty
is necessary in the wise guidance of the present and future programs
of the University. We believe that separation or dichotomy o: adminis-
tration and faculty is artificial and impossible of apnlication and
that the common objectives of faculty and administration should be
stressed in 00nceiving the role and organization of the University
Faculty, since most nersons holding major administrative responsibil-
ities are also members of the Faculty while all faculty members have
certain functiOns of an administrative nature. Thus the University
Fadulty is visualized as a body serving to support and enhance the
executive powers invested in the administrative officers of the

Uni ersity Our recommendations are, therefore, based on these
run amental tenets.

In order that the University may realize the mest efficient

and fullest utilization of its human resources, secure fim
fullest cooperation among teaching and research faCulty and
administrative officials, and develop a full sense of
responsibility among its staff, we believe that the following
aims should govern the function, organizatiOn and personnel
of the University Faculty: (a) We recommend that the
University Faculty be considered as the body through which
the educational poliCy of the institution is determined in the
breadest sense of the term. (b) We believe that this broad
and basic responsibility can be fulfilled most effectively if
the University Faculty is organized and functions as a forum
where important matters of policy are discussed and where

considerations relating to final poliCy decisions can be reported,

justified and approved.

If the University Faculty's basic role is to perform these
vital functions, the practical question may be asked: Can the
Faculty achieve its aims unless its efferts are concentrated On
educational policy matters of first importance? We believe it
cannot, thus we recommend that three things must be done to
deveIOp and specify those matters to which the University
Faculty will give primary attention.

(1) The major functions contained within the concept,
”Educational PoliCy," should be studied continuously and
carefully delineated in order that the TaCulty will ira Fact
fully discharge its authorized role. These functions snould
include all matters pertaining to long—range University
planning and development (such as develoPment of the future
physical facilities or planning the composition of the future
student body) together with all current m=tters having
University—wide significance or implications (such as those
involving academic standards and prestige of the University
or the utilization of general University resources).

(2) Areas of potential overlap in responsibility and
jurisdiction between the University Faculty and the faculties
of the various Colleges should be recognized and isolated in
order that the University Faculty may provide clear policy
guidance on all matters requiring its approval. These should
include all matters pertaining to the University as a whole
and all matters requiring review and coordination among the
various faculties and divisions of the University.

(3) A realistic modus 9perandi_should be developed for
discharging some of the recurring duties of the faculty
in application of existing policy and for maxing the Careful
studis preliminary to the reCOmmendation of policies and
actiOn to the University Faculty. Many of the recurring duties
in harmony with applicable faculty regulations and rules should

empowered to act on these matters in behalf of the
University Faculty but enjoined to report at stipulated
times on actions taken. tolring to the total Taculty
doubtful cases, and to make suggestions to the University
Taculty for such modifications of poliCy or regulations

as may seem wise to them. To perform its double functiOn

of policyomaking and of full discussion, the University
Faculty will need an increased number of standing committees,
supplemented by such special committees as may be needed

for matters of a noncontinuing or time—limited nature,

and all matters requiring official action on the part of

the University Faculty should be studied, refined and
clarified in advance by an appropriate standing or special
committee. The following are suggestive of the kinds of
standing committees which the Faculty may wish to establiflx
in order to create a realistic modus operandi for performance
of its enlarged role and function:

a ACademic Freedom Calendar
Admissions Curriculum Review and
Coordination

Building and “acilit hxnansion
O y n.
Laboratories

Libraries PubliCations and Public
, Relations
Personnel

Rules

Program Development
Student Affairs

To distribute the resources of the Vaculty among the
committees, a Committee On Committees would be necessary;
andto plan economical use of meeting time a Committee on
Agenda would be indicated. In appointing committees the
principle of balanced representation among the various
branches of the University should be adhered to and any
branch to be affected directly by action of the committee
should be represented on the committee.

In recommending that these three things be done to
develop and specify those matters to which the University
Taculty should give primary attention, we censciously stop
short of providing a full, detailed bill of particulars.

We doubt the wisdom of a single special committee attempting
to foresee the detailed answers to all of the vital questions
concerning Faculty role and relationships which will surely
arise if the Faculty undertakes to perform the broad
function we conceive for it. In our View, the Faculty needs
meet at this stage a portrayal of the framework within which
its broad functional aims should be pursued. If the Faculty

agrees as to thefremewirkit can work out the details
based on the experi nee gained in performing its new role.

Insofar“" specific responsibilities of the University
Faculty should be enumerated, we conceive that these would

include all of the areas listed in Aritcle III of the University

Governing Regulations (April 1955 edition), on page 9

thereof,1 and, in addition, those responsibilities eSSential

to the performance of the enlarged role of the Faculty, as
illustrated by the suggested list of standing cemmittees above.

1. "It (the University Faculty) is authorized
to make regulations to promote the eduCational interests
of the University as a whole with respect to (a) studies,
including schedules of classes, numbering and classificatiOn
of courses, credit for foreign languages and extension
work, probation, repeated failures, student load, transfer
between curricula of different colleges, unsatisfactory
scholarship and attendance, examinations, credits, marks,
and student standing; (b) admission and classification of
students and requirements fior graduation; (c) approval
of curricula and courses; (d) the University libraries;
(e) commencament and other convocations; (f) student
discipline, including penalties for nonattendance; (g)
student social and extracurricular activities; (h) the
awarding of honors; and (1) other matters, whether or not

enumerated herein, concerning the educatiOnal pregram of
the institutiOn as a whole."
III

Composition of the University Faculty

In view of the recommendations made in Part II of this
Beport that the role of the University Taculty should be
enlarged to determine important matters of educational policy
and to provide a forum for full discussiOn of issues, the
present 00mposition as established in the Governing Regulations
has been studied carefully.

The present membership is composed of two grou s:
(1) ex officio members and (2) elected members. The elected
members are chosen according to a fixed representation
distributed among the enumerated colleges and divisions in
the Governing Regulations. This distribution may be
restudied and adjusted every six years. The present
authorized ex officio membership is as follows:

*For example, 55% of the University Faculty is elected by

the College of Arts and Sciences, which respresents 51% of
the full—time teaching staff of the University.

After considering various methods of selection and criteria
for membership, we believe a system of selection by oo~ition
and by election is the most equitable and feasible. We also .
recognize the fairness of equal representation for each full— $1
time staff member of assistant professor rank in the groups
enumerated above. In lieu of the present fixed distributiOn
among these groups, however, we recommend that the distributiOn I
be determined annually by the Elections Committee on the basis ‘
of one representative for every five full—time faCulty members l
in each grout with the rank of assistant professor and above.
An additional representative should be allowed for any
fractional result, e.g., a group which includes 4 qualified J
persons whould be allowed 1 representative; 6 would be allowed ‘1
2; 11 would be allowed 3, §j_ggj§£g.

hinutes of the University Faculty, nay ll, 1959

To the existing groups we recommend that there be
added the University Library, the College of Medicine,
the College of Nursing and the College of Dentistry,
To give each of the off—campus Centers one elected
member of the UniVersity Faculty we recommend that the
professional staff at each Center, regardless of the
number in such staff, elect a representative who shall
be a full-time faculty member of assistant professor
rank or higher. Since the staff of each Center will
be represented in this manner, they will not be
included in the above listed groups as the basiszwr
the 5-to—l ratio. We believe that the present group
of ex officio members is vital to the functions of
the Faculty and recommend no changes in it except to
add the position of Vice-President for the Medical
Center.

The r COmhanhed method for determining the
distribution of elected members will result in no
fixed absolute size for the University Faculty. The
size of the elected grOup will vary annually and will
increase with the size of the fullntime teaching and
research staff of assistant professor rank or higher.
In this manner a growing University will have a means
of maintaining a truly representatiVe University
Faculty. For the year 1955-59 the recommended method
would have provided for approximately 86 elected members
instead of the present 78.

Dean Matthews stated that this report acoomplished the
charge given the Committee; that frOm the beginning the COmmittee
had anticipated that this would not be a report that would be
received, approved, and filed away; that the COmmittee had two
suggestiOns in connection with the implementation of the report:

1. That it be given to the cemmittee now working on the
revision of the Governing Regulations so that if any of the
recommendations need to be incorporated into the regulations,
the report would serve as the Universi y Faculty's statement
of its composition and role.

2. That this report be constantly referred to by the
Faculty in working out its new role, and in particular that
the suggestion be given to the Committee on Committees that
as they go about their regular 00mmittee work of recommending
various COmmittees to the University Faculty, they too use
this report as the statement of the University Faculty with
respect to its role and compasition.

President Dickey expressed his appreciation of the fine
work of the COmmittee and stated that the report would be
transmitted immediately to the Committee on Revision of the
Governing Regulations.
