Board of Directors, one member elected by the Library unit, one member elected by the counseling faculty unit, and tenured faculty members elected by and from their tenured and probationary colleagues in each college. Each college shall elect one member of the University ARTP Committee for each 100 probationary and tenured faculty or fraction thereof assigned to that college as of the current year. No more than one faculty member may be elected from the same primary unit.

The President's designee shall serve as a non-voting ex-officio member of the University ARTP Committee.
Note: Whenever a call for nominations to a seat or seats on an ARTP
committee or a grievance panel or pool produces no more than a single candidate
for each seat, the election following the close of nominations shall be by a
ballot that gives each voter the choice of accepting or rejecting the single
candidate for each seat.
B. Any change in the composition of the University ARTP Committee shall be subject to recommendation by a vote of the entire faculty and the approval of the President.
C. It is imperative that the members of the University ARTP Committee be persons with such concern for the quality of the University and with the function of the University in its local, regional, and national setting, that they will be able to set aside the interest they will have in some particular part of the University, so that these special interests will not intrude upon the deliberations of the University ARTP Committee.
Background can be
found in the memo of transmittal from William Dillon, Presiding Member,
University ARTP Committee at Attachment A.
