April 8, 2013

Present: Cook, Fair, Lipton, Petty, Scheufele

Absent: Bernard-Donals

1. Motion by Petty, second by Lipton, to approve the minutes of the 1 April 2013 meeting, as amended.  Unanimous.

2. The committee discussed the draft UC response to the proposed policy on international travel.  It was agreed to send the report to Dan Gold and Laurie Cox, and to the provost.  Gold and Cox will be invited to a future meeting to discuss the problems with the proposed policy.

3. It was agreed that it would be a good idea to develop a governance workshop for chairs of FPP chapter 6 and other faculty committees to orient them to their work as committee chairs.  The 90 minute workshop would be held during the week before the beginning of the fall semester. It was also suggested that the UC develop a document that would serve as the basis for the workshop.

4. The meeting adjourned at 3:10 p.m.

Minutes submitted by David Musolf, secretary of the faculty emeritus.
