CONSENT INFORMATION

UARTP DOCUMENT-INCORPORATES CHANGES TO M.O.U.

Background: The new M.O.U. contains language requiring that certain parts of the University ARTP document be amended to reflect the new contract language. As described in Professor William Dillon's (Presiding Member, University ARTP Committee) August 8, 2007 memo to the Faculty Senate's Executive Committee, this amendment incorporates the changes to the M.O.U. into the University ARTP document.

The Faculty Senate recommends amending the University ARTP document as shown in Attachment A.

*Caution: Attachment A is lengthy. Review before printing!
