Dear Members of the Faculty:

The Faculty Advisory Committee (FAC) requests nominations for membership on the Committee. The FAC advises faculty regarding University procedures, provides added recourse for the consideration of grievances, and furnishes a channel for direct and concerted communication between the faculty and the administrative officers of the University.

Any tenured member of the FAC electorate is eligible to serve on the Committee, except those appointed as an associate unit executive officer, a unit executive officer, or at a higher administrative position. The Committee consists of nine tenured faculty members; no more than two may hold paid appointments in the same college. Three members will be elected for the three-year term running August 16, 2014 - August 15, 2017. For more information on the duties of the committee, please see www.fac.illinois.edu.

This year candidates may be nominated from any college except LAS and FAA, which each have two members serving terms that will end in 2015 or 2016.
