Meeting notes form the January 14, 2011 meeting were approved.
Core Faculty Needs
A previous list of vacant/open faculty positions has been combined with a list of new core positions. Recommended changes to the list were discussed and updated. Below is a combined list of core faculty positions, including temporary, listed alphabetically by department.

Chairs will prioritize the list of positions at the next meeting. In the future if a position becomes vacant, it will then be considered and prioritized accordingly.
To replace a temporary position, the process of re-advertizing must take place. The person in the temporary position can apply; however, it does not mean he/she will be appointed to the permanent position. It is important that mentor committees be assigned to temporary faculty positions.
The length of temporary positions is a concern for departments. It had been explained that temporary positions can only last for two years. Clarification to the process will be obtained from the VPAA.
Long-term Schedule
The English and math departments courses are on a synchronized long-term schedule. Changes will be made to the online long-term schedule.
Centers would like departments to update their schedules as soon as possible. It helps them advise students and schedule courses.
General education courses need to be noted if they are being offered online, live, or interactive. The long-term schedule is on a revolving four year program. Departments should be looking at times and dates classes are offered. If a course is no longer a program requirement or if a department can no longer commit to offering a specific course, then it should be removed from the long-term schedule.
Department Chair Evaluation
The revised evaluation standards that department chairs passed last spring has not been approved by presidents council. The website has already been updated with the changes; however, it cannot be used until the changes are approved. The VPAA has agreed to recommend the approval of the revised evaluation to presidents council.
Bonnie Hofland and Lynette Macfarlan met with the VPAA to discuss concerns with the process. Concerns were: 1. How should a situation be handled when a required duty is not performed with quality?, 2. What recourse does administration have when a requirement is done with poor quality?, and 3. Would faculty consider incorporating a narrative in the evaluation as a communication tool?
The narrative section would have a place for faculty reflection and also a section for administrators to list both accommodations and recommendations. The narrative section would not be factored into the five-point scale. The narrative written by the administrator would be based on evidence and not be subjective.
Administrators need an avenue to communicate when a faculty is not performing to the expected standards. The current system is formative and not summative, thats the way it was created. Administration needs the help of faculty to make this process work and be successful.
Chairs discussed the topic at great length. Topics of the discussion were:
Administrators are unable to observe faculty in their teaching environment.
How do administrators determine if a faculty member is performing duties satisfactorily?
There is no recourse in the current system to remove tenured faculty when they are not performing.
The current system was designed to be formative, non-punitive tool for faculty. It was designed as a mentoring process.
鶹ӰԺ is a flat system, everyone is equal. The college needs to determine if the system needs changed and perhaps go to a positional structure.
What kind of detail does administration need, that they are not receiving, to evaluate faculty?
How do you define quality?
What is not being measured that should be?
Should department chairs supervise faculty in their areas?
Not all faculty feel comfortable addressing peers when an issue arises with performance.
Chairs determined that administration needs to meet with the evaluation committee to discuss their concerns. Issues should be discussed with the committee and then presented to chairs with the outcomes.
Recommendations for Budget Task Force
The confidentiality agreement that is required to be signed by members of the budget task force committee is an unacceptable communication tool. The communication model is ineffective with the budget crisis that we are facing at this time. The form was initially created to protect members from discussing personnel issues. Some of the information was disclosed at faculty senate last year; however, it was an uneven dissemination and distribution of information. 鶹ӰԺ in the only institution in the system that requires members to sign a confidentiality agreement.
A motion passed, with one abstention, to recommend the confidentiality agreements be rescinded, immediately. The item will be presented at the next faculty senate meeting.
Next meeting is Friday, March 11 at 9:30 a.m.
