Dr. Stephen Diachun, Secretary of the University Senate Council, Vii

The Chairman then called on Mr. John Nelson, Chairman of the ad_hoc Tripartite
Committee, who gave the following brief summary of the Report:

The ad_hoc Tripartite Committee was constituted, if you will remember,
last spring to review the role of the University Senate particularly,

3059

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the whole area of University governance from a tripartite
standpoint. The members of this Committee consisted of three faculty
members, three administration members, and three students. The three
students are Mr. Steve Bright, Miss Rona Roberts, and myself; the
three administration members are Doctors Cochran, Ockerman, and Royster;
and the three faculty members are Doctors Engelberg, Fisher, and Diachun.
The majority consisted of the eight members, with the exception of Dr.
Diachun, and filed the majority report that you have before you. Dr.
Diachun filed the minority report which you will find on the back of
the same page. Other than to say that the Committee worked a long time

and recognized that this report certainly is not perfect as it stands, [
but thinks that it ought to offer substantive bits for you to discuss, 6??!
I have nothing further to say except to respond to your questions. /

In the extensive discussion of the proposal that followed three preferences 2
emerged: one, that the majority report (circulated to the faculty under .
date of November 5, 1970) be accepted; two, that the minority report as
presented by Dr. Stephen Diachun (contained in that same circularization

to the faculty under date of November 5, 1970) be accepted; and three,

that one of two options in that minority report be accepted —— Option 1,

that the University Senate remain essentially as it is presently constituted,
or Option 2, that the Senate become a smaller Faculty Senate, without
students and without administrators, and that, in addition, an advisory ‘
University Council be established with faculty, students and administration f
represented in equal numbers. w

An informal straw vote was taken and the Senators overwhelmingly supported .
the minority report as presented by Dr. Diachun in the Report, and further €Efl5
the Senators favored Option 2 of that minority report. W

Dr. Plucknett stated that he would take this sense of the Senate's
preference back to the Senate Council for its consideration and that the _
, Senate Council would either return the proposal, with the Council's (
I L;‘ recommendations, to the ad h9£_committee or bring a report back to the
V w floor of the Senate for action.

 

The Chairman called on Dr. Diachun who recommended that the report
of the Senate Advisory Committee on Student Affairs relative to student
b“ participation in academic affairs be received and placed before the Senate
g ’ for discussion only. This recommendation was seconded.

The Chairman then called on Dr. C. Frank Buck, chairman 0fthat Committee,
who made the following remarks:

I

I

I

What we are asking here as a committee, with the backing of the flk

Student Advisory Committee and also the Student Government, is to ffl
have a student advisory council for every college. This council
will be responsible to the academic dean; also to the Dean of Under—
graduate Studies in case of undergraduates; or to the Graduate I
Dean in case of the graduate students; Or to the Vice President
for Academic Affairs in the case of professional colleges. We
know that some colleges already have these student activity councils.
There are places written in here so that if a college already has
a council and it meets the approval of the groups I have stated,
3 'f. this is satisfactory. The college does not have to change it. 1

The second thing I would like to call to your attention are \
the Appendices A and B which are suggestions only on how to form ’
and what to work on because someone will say they don't know how
to form a council and don't know what to work on after the council
is formed. (A

The third thing I would like to say is that this student council
will have a voting member. I suppOSe you are aware that students are
going to participate whether they have a channel of participation or not.
You are not going to stop student participation. This is merely giving

      

 Minutes of the University Senate, November 23, 1970

them a channel so they E§n_participate. This is already happening
in the Army and in the Navy and people thought it would never happen.
It is happening in colleges and universities and this is now saying
that students have a right to have a participation in some of the
academic affairs of a university. So, Mr. Chairman, I turn it back
to you and the members of our committee are open, I think, to discuss
it.

As background for the discussion Dr. Plucknett reminded the Senate of

the statement in the new Governing Regulations which states ". . . Rules
of procedure in educational units of the University shall provide for
participation of students in the development of educational policies."

Dr. Weaver reminded the Senators of one other pertinent rule in the
Governing Regulations, that which states exactly what faculty the colleges
and departments shall consist of; and that any action taken by the Senate
would have to be a recommendation to the colleges and departments.

 

Out of the discussion which followed sets of opinions which emerged were
that the proposal is modest and flexible, and that it states what the
students want, of which the faculty is already aware, hence the Senate
should not be afraid to accept it; and that it would not accomplish what
the students want to accomplish.

Motion was made and approved at 5:00 p.m. to adjourn.
