Dear Colleague,
The Bylaws of the Senate, Part A 6., state: The Senate shall call an
annual meeting of the faculty of the campus to hear reports from and to
question the Senate Executive Committee and the administration.
This year, the Annual Faculty Meeting be on Monday, September 11,
beginning at 2:10 PM (yes, 2:10 PM) on the 3rd Floor of the Levis Faculty
Center, 919 W. Illinois St., Urbana. You can pre-register at
www.senate.uiuc.edu until September 8; onsite registration will also be
available.
At the meeting this year, President Joseph White and Chancellor Richard
Herman will deliver remarks, after which there will be an open discussion
session during which your questions and comments will be welcome. The
speakers will give you their sense of where we stand, what we are up
against, and what is to be done; and they will be interested in hearing
from you, both on the matters they mention and on others.
The Annual Meeting of the Faculty serves as a forum for issues affecting
all of us, such as shared governance, the University and campus strategic
plans, rehiring of retirees, and the global campus initiative, to which
both faculty and administrators contribute. We hope that you will join us
at the meeting this year. After its conclusion, there will be a reception
on the 3rd Floor of the Levis Center, sponsored by the Chancellor, at
which discussion can continue informally.
We look forward to seeing you at this meeting.
Cordially,
Vernon Burton, Chair
Senate Executive Committee
Nicholas Burbules, Vice-Chair
Senate Executive Committee
