FS 03-50/Ex. uNIVERSITY artp doCUMENT, AMEND SECTION 2.0

Background:  On February 27, 2003, the Faculty Senate approved passage of FS 03-04, amending the University ARTP document.  As a result of President Donald Gerth's disapproval of FS 03-04, the Senate's Executive Committee asked the University ARTP Committee to respond to President Gerth's concerns and draft more appropriate language, which follows:

The Faculty Senate recommends amending the University ARTP document by adding a new Section 2.00 and renumbering as 2.01 the current section:

Section 2.00    Application

Unless otherwise expressly excepted, faculty unit employees and administrators shall be governed by the University ARTP Policy and the primary and secondary unit policies document consistent with it that governs the level of evaluation at which they are acting.

See October 16, 2003 Faculty Senate Agenda Attachment D for background information (President Gerth's disapproval memo; the September 16, 2003 memo from William A. Dillon, Presiding Member of the University ARTP Committee, responding to President Gerth's concerns; and the November 11, 2002 memo from William A. Dillon, Presiding Member of the University ARTP Committee, explaining the original language).  (You must have version 5.0 to successfully access this file.  Go to: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/alternate.html to download the latest version.)
