2.02 – Membership in College and School Faculties

  1. The Faculty of each college consists of the Chancellor, the Dean, and all members of the Faculty as defined in 1.01(1) who hold appointments in the college. In addition, the Faculty of each college may designate Faculty members as defined in 1.01(1) who hold appointments in other colleges as voting members of its college. (The Faculty of the Graduate School is defined in 2.02(3).)
  2. The Faculty of a school consists of the members of the Faculty of the college who are designated to hold appointments inside the school. In addition, the Faculty of each school may designate Faculty members as defined by 1.01(1) who hold appointments in other colleges or schools as voting members of its school.
  3. The Graduate School Faculty includes all voting members of the University Faculty as defined in 1.01(1)(a) who meet qualifications established by the Graduate Faculty Committee. The Graduate Faculty Committee shall obtain from each department a list with supporting evidence of its members who continue to meet these qualifications, by annual schedules established by the Graduate Faculty Committee. Nominations for additions or deletions from the list are submitted at the same time. Lists are submitted by Executive Committees which sponsor graduate work with copies to the Dean of the Graduate School, Dean of the appropriate college, and chairperson of the Graduate Faculty Committee. The Committee periodically reviews submitted lists of members of the Faculty of the Graduate School and recommends to the Graduate Faculty Committee approval the names of individuals who meet the qualifications for categories of Graduate School Faculty membership.
  4. Academic Staff Voting
    1. The Faculty of a college may designate members of its Academic Staff with training, experience and responsibility comparable to those in the Faculty ranks as voting members of its Faculty. If the college contains schools and/or departments, the Academic Staff must have been granted voting rights by the school or department prior to receiving voting rights in the college. If a school is departmentalized, the Academic Staff must have been granted voting rights in one of the departments of a school prior to receiving voting rights in the school.
    2. The foregoing does not deny voting rights to any person holding same prior to enactment of this legislation. Such definition does not imply University Faculty status as defined in 1.01(1).
