LAS College Committee Reports Tenure, Promotion, and Appeals Committee (Thomas Delillo) 11 cases (7 tenure, 1 promotion, and 3 promotion incentive reviews) in LAS were considered by the Committee. 29 cases were considered at the University level. The committee emphasized that: 1) the candidate must make their case for promotion and tenure, 2) font size for dossiers must be legible (not too small), 3) files must be clearly organized. Faculty Support and Fellowship (Jay Price) No report. Report sent subsequently. LAS College Council (Deborah Ballard-Reisch) The Committee is responsive to the needs of the faculty, and committee elections are overseen by LAS College Council. Next semester, the Committee will examine student conduct and safety issues as well as consistency of LAS Promotion and Tenure policies with University policies. Progress was reported from several sub-committees. Sub-committee reports were as follows: -The Ad Hoc Sub-Committee reviewed Promotion and Tenure policies in LAS for consistency across Departments and coherence with the LAS policy. Additionally, this committee examined current space needs and future space needs. A pilot survey will be implemented soon before being sent to LAS departments and faculty. -The Academic Planning Sub-Committee examined credit hours for majors. -The Budget Sub-Committee examined the idea of proposing an LAS College Tech Fee (decision awaiting) and promotion/benefits for teaching faculty and research associate professors (report to be completed next semester). d. College Curriculum Committee (Natalie Grant) No report from Chair, but it was noted that the Committee processed over 100 separate changes this year (as per Candice Weathers). Report sent subsequently. Remarks (Interim Dean Ron Matson) Moment of silence for our deceased colleagues: Orren Dale, Allen Elkrat, John Hartman, Steve Hathaway, Gary Tewps, Wayne Dunning. Strategic Plan. The draft to the Steering Committee is due in about 2 weeks, and this will be posted for comments. Deans will complete their draft by 1 September. The final document will be 5 pages. Each Departments final document will be appended to this document. Fairmont College Advisory Committee (FCAC). Committee meets late April and late September. Fifteen student projects were selected for development (some will be completed in fall 2014), and students were awarded $600. Technology and Transfer. The first workshop was on patents; another workshop will be held next year. Ideas for the workshop will be derived from the Strategic Plan. Credit for Prior Learning (CPL). A workshop will be held on May 30th to examine national models/standards for implementation of college credit for prior experience. Contact Cheryl Miller if interested in participating in the workshop. This initiative comes from KBOR. LAS Budget. The College is currently over budget by $500,000, and planning is on hold. Based on student enrollment projections for next semester, the budget seems to indicate increased revenue for LAS. No new money will come from the state. Salary raises will be based on 2.5% increase (scheduled for allocation to Departments on May 2). Deans will hold 0.5% for contingencies. Letters to faculty/staff regarding raises should be in concert with the end of the fiscal year (about 30 June). Questions / As may arise Wilson Baldridge: What is the process for necessary modifications of Tenure and Promotion guidelines? Response: A recommendation from the LAS College Council would go to all faculty. The Promotion and Tenure Committee would also provide a recommendation. Jeff Hershfield: What is driving the CPL? Response: KBOR and University Regents. This will become more apparent at the workshop on May 30. It seems that CPL may be a means of increasing the number of graduates without spending more funds on facilities and instruction.
