UAF GOVERNANCE COORDINATING COMMITTEE
PROCEDURES

INTRODUCTION

FACULTY, STAFF, AND STUDENT GOVERNANCE IS ESTABLISHED
BY UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA BOARD OF REGENTS' POLICY. EACH
GOVERNANCE ORGANIZATION OPERATES INDEPENDENTLY, BUT WITH
FORMAL INTERCHANGES OF INFORMATION MADE POSSIBLE BY
REPORTS AS PART OF REGULAR MEETINGS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ASUAF
AND STAFF COUNCIL PRESIDENTS ARE NON-VOTING MEMBERS OF THE
UAF FACULTY SENATE, AND REPORT ON THE WORK OF THEIR
INDIVIDUAL GOVERNANCE ORGANIZATIONS AT EACH MEETING OF THE
FACULTY SENATE. THE FACULTY SENATE PRESIDENT ALSO DELIVERS
A REPORT ON SENATE ACTIVITIES AT EACH MEETING OF THE STAFF
COUNCIL.

ISSUES CAN ARISE WITHIN GOVERNANCE THAT REQUIRE THE
ATTENTION OF MORE THAN JUST ONE GOVERNANCE BODY. IN SUCH A
CASE, THE ISSUE CAN EITHER BE BROUGHT DIRECTLY TO EACH BODY
BY AN APPROPRIATE INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP (E.G., ADMINISTRATION)
OR IT CAN BE BROUGHT TO THE UAF GOVERNANCE COORDINATING
COMMITTEE, WHICH IS THEN CHARGED WITH THE RESPONSIBILITY.

THE FUNDAMENTAL OBLIGATION OF THE COORDINATING
COMMITTEE, ONE ASSOCIATED WITH THE REASON FOR ITS CREATION,
IS TO ASSURE TIMELY CONSIDERATION OF AN ISSUE BY EACH
GOVERNANCE BODY AND FINAL ACTION ON THE ISSUE: IT ACTS AS
MONITOR OF PROGRESS AND GUARANTOR OF COMPLETION.

TO FURTHER AID THE COORDINATING COMMITTEE IN CARRYING
OUT ITS OBLIGATIONS, IT ALSO SUPPORTS THE EXISTENCE OF
CERTAIN STANDING COMMITTEES CONCERNED WITH CAMPUS-WIDE
ACTIVITIES (SUCH AS THE HEALTH ISSUES COMMITTEE) AND
RECEIVES REPORTS FROM OTHER COMMITTEES OUTSIDE ITS CONTROL
WHO ARE ALSO CONCERNED WITH CAMPUS-WIDE ISSUES (SUCH AS
THE POLICE ADVISORY BOARD).

The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #88 on
May 3, 1999:

MOTION PASSED AS AMENDED
==========================

The UAF Faculty Senate moves to approve the establishment of a new
degree, the Bachelor of Arts and Sciences (BAS).

EFFECTIVE: Upon Board of Regents' Approval

RATIONALE: The Board of Regents has directed campuses
to eliminate the Bachelor of Education in Elementary
Education. The Bachelor of Arts and Sciences is designed
to replace this degree, by providing a content alternative
for the preparation of teachers, which will lead up to the
5th year post-baccalaureate program for teacher
educators. National study groups consistently have
recommended that content preparation be emphasized in
the education of teachers, which the new degree program
does by preparing teachers for the breadth of knowledge
that they must possess in order to teach elementary
students.

FORMAT 3

NEW DEGREE PROGRAM REQUEST

I. COVER MEMORANDUM

A. Name of person preparing request: John Leipzig, Interim Dean
College of Liberal Arts

B. Brief Statement of the proposed program, its objectives and
career opportunities:
1. A new degree in Arts and Sciences (BAS) which is
interdisciplinary in nature constructed primarily to
provide breadth and depth of content in those areas
needed for students wishing to prepare themselves to
teach in elementary schools.
2. A general studies degree requiring a breadth of content
exploration in the arts and sciences available for
students at the extended sites as well as at the
Fairbanks campus.

II. IDENTIFICATION OF THE PROGRAM

A. Description of the Program
1. Program Title: Bachelor of Arts and Sciences (BAS)
2. N/A
3. Admissions requirements and prerequisites. Standard
entrance requirement for UAF. Entrance into the Post-
Baccalaureate Teacher Education Program would follow
School of Education policies and would be separate from
admission to the BAS.
4. Course Descriptions: Except for the new interdisciplinary
senior seminar courses, all courses currently are
approved courses at UAF. The courses selected for
inclusion were intended to meet 乐虎直播 Content
Standards and NCATE Content Standards (included) as
well as being vetted by both the Task Force and the CLA
Academic Council as being those courses which would
provide a diversified degree program in the arts and
sciences.
5. Requirements for the degree: Attached. Three year cycle
of course offerings follows the current offering cycles
for the departmental offerings. All courses will be
offered on an annual basis. Some extended campus
offerings may be offered on an every other year basis.

B. Program Goals
1. Brief identification of objectives and subsequent means
for their evaluation: Given the BOR mandate to develop
content based teacher preparation programs, this degree
will be the recommended preparation avenue for
elementary teachers. Ultimately the acceptance rate of
teachers trained on this program as well as their
performance on the recently mandated teacher
competence tests will indicate the strength of the
program.
2. Relationship of program objectives to "Purposes of the
University": As a Land-Sea-Space Grant university,
UAF has the responsibility for the training of teachers.
This degree will provide a stronger content preparation
for elementary teachers as well as provide a general
studies degree option for students wanting a broader
interdisciplinary approach to higher education.
3. Occupational/other competencies to be achieved:
Content preparation in the arts and sciences for those
wishing to teach in the elementary schools or to receive
a broad based interdisciplinary degree.
4. Relationship of courses to the program objectives:
Courses were selected because they met the 乐虎直播 and
NCATE Content Standards while providing a
comprehensive overall general studies degree.

III. PERSONNEL DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN THE PROGRAM

A. List of Faculty involved in the Program including brief
statement of duties and qualifications: Faculty from CLA,
CSEM, CNRDM, School of Education and the College of Rural
乐虎直播 will cooperate in the offering of the courses. A list
would include most of the teaching faculty in the university
since all will be involved in the content preparation of future
teachers.

B. Administrative and coordinating personnel: The program will
be housed administratively in the College of Liberal Arts. The
Deans of the cooperating colleges in conjunction with the
Director of the School of Education will provide the necessary
personnel to administrate the program. A director of the
program will coordinate all aspects of the degree.

C. Classified Personnel: Since most courses will be
administrated by the departments the support for those
courses will rest in the departments. Support for the degree
will be attached to the director of the BAS program position in
terms of having some dedicated classified support provided by
the collaborating colleges and the School of Education.

IV. ENROLLMENT INFORMATION

A. Projected enrollment/present enrollment: Approximately 350
students are currently enrolled in elementary education
programs. This number of students is anticipated to continue.

B. How determined/who surveyed/how surveyed: Data provided by
the School of Education based on trend data for demand for the
B.Ed.

C. Minimum enrollments to maintain program in years 1-5. Not
applicable since this will be the primary preparation route for
elementary teachers replacing the B.Ed.

D. Maximum enrollment which program can accommodate: Again
not applicable since the degree is made up of a multitude of
disciplinary offerings.

V. NEED FOR PROGRAM

A. Required for other programs: Will take the place of the B.Ed in
Elementary Education.

B. Employment market needs: The 乐虎直播 Teacher Placement
Service provides a yearly comprehensive report on "Statewide
Educator Supply and Demand". This document contends that
there will be an increasing demand for teachers in the state
with a large gap between jobs available and those filled by
UAF graduates. Included is the 1998 report.

VI. OTHER

The Board of Regents directive to eliminate B.Ed. programs
necessitates that the colleges determine content alternatives for
the preparation of teachers, which will lead up to the 5th year post-
baccalaureate program for teacher educators. Especially important
is the development of an elementary program that appropriately
prepares teachers for the breadth of knowledge that they must
provide to elementary students. Visiting in the life space of an
elementary teacher provides guidance for the development of the
present degree.

VII. RESOURCE IMPACT

A. Budget: Currently the Provost Office and the College of Rural
乐虎直播 are assessing the costs of this program. But with that
said and irrespective of the design, if we are to prepare
teachers at UAF the university ultimately has to bear the cost
of doing so. To get us started CLA has committed to identify a
person to take on the directorship of the BAS and to work with
the Advising Center and the other colleges to ensure that
sufficient resources are available to support the programs
startup.

B. Facilities/space needs: Delightfully, I can report that no
additional space will be required for the program.

C. Credit hour production: Since the bulk of the courses are
disciplinary driven the credit hours will stay with the
disciplines offering the courses.

D. Faculty: Disciplinary faculty cover courses. A cross-
disciplinary team will advise the director or the BAS on
Academic, Advising and other issues.

E. Library Media materials: The structure of the degree being
interdisciplinary means that specialized library media are
unnecessary.

VIII. RELATION OF PROGRAM TO OTHER PROGRAMS IN THE SYSTEM

A. Effects of enrollments elsewhere in the system: We intend to
coordinate the offerings with the BLA at UAS. This
coordination will allow us to maximize delivery and minimize
cost. UAA doesn't have the extensive off campus delivery
demand but we will be looking at this degree as well.

B. Does it duplicate/approximate programs anywhere in the
system? If so, what is the justification for the duplication:
Not really but if anything the BLA at UAS is the closest
approximation. We will be working together to ensure rural
access to degrees to prepare teachers. With this said still the
BAS is a more depth intensive curriculum with a greater
concentration in science and mathematics than the BLA.

C. How does the program relate to research and service
activities? Service to teachers in the state is an advantage of
this program. The program will provide opportunities for
students interested in elementary teaching to become involved
in the classrooms early in the degree process which certainly
enhances our service mission. In terms of scholarship this
degree would provide the opportunity for researchers to
ascertain the impact of heightened content preparation in
terms of teacher success on competency exams and students
progress.

IX. IMPLEMENTATION/TERMINATION

A. Date of Implementation: Optimistically Fall of 1999 with
catalog copy the following year.

B. Plans for recruiting students: Will be the primary recruiting
tool for students wishing to be elementary teachers. Will
coordinate with the Executive Director of Admissions and
Enrollment Management regarding student recruitment.

C. Termination date, if any: This will follow the standard review
process for all degrees.

D. Plans for phasing out program if it proves unsuccessful: If
required, the Provost will appoint a task force to phase out the
program.

E. Assessment of the Program: An outcomes assessment plan
will include a review of student performance on the PRAXIS
exams. Admission into the post-baccalureate licensure
program will be a further indication of successful preparation
of students in the program. Additional assessment will be
patterned after the requirements for the NCATE self-study and
will lead toward accreditation of the program.

F. Admission to the B.Ed. program will not be suspended until the
B.A.S. is deliverable in rural 乐虎直播.

X: REGENTS GUIDELINES

The proposed BAS will provide one of the strongest content bases
for the preparation of elementary teachers currently available in the
states. This degree meets or exceeds the 乐虎直播 Content Standards
as well as the NCATE content standards. With the Regents directive
of eliminating B.Ed. programs in favor of content driven preparation
programs this is a strong response to that initiative. Two faculty
committees and four deans at UAF have been involved in this process
to date and the goal is to provide a credible interdisciplinary degree
that meets the needs for elementary school teacher preparation.
This degree meets intent and quality requirements for a general
studies degree which will provide an excellent content preparations
base for future teachers.

*Departmental requirements for minors may exceed the minimums
indicated. Specific requirements are listed in the Degrees and
Programs section.

Interdisciplinary senior seminars for the B.A.S. degree: A brief
description

Three new courses were created (LAS 410, 420, 430) to provide a
integrative experience across content areas tied to teaching
practice. B.A.S. students will be required to take the Scientific
Research (LAS 410) course and either the Social Science Inquiry and
Research (LAS 420) or the Humanities: Creative Activities and
Research (LAS 430) course.

LAS 410 covers the formulation and testing of scientific hypotheses
using field observation and experimentation. Students will be
required to complete two projects one of which would involve
working within a local K-12 school.

LAS 420 and LAS 430 examine critical events which have shaped the
modern world from the perspectives of different disciplines and
differently situated actors. Both courses examine the processes in
the social sciences or humanities that help us make sense of our
world and how different people hold differing worldviews. LAS 420
and LAS 430 have project assignments that would have students
working on K-8 teaching assignments. Both courses will involve
School of Education Faculty working with College of Liberal Arts
faculty.

All three LAS courses have been developed to be written intensive
and 1/2 oral intensive. These three courses should clarify for the
outside observer that the intent of the degree is to prepare K-8
teachers.

The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #88 on
May 3, 1999:

MOTION PASSED
==============

The UAF Faculty Senate moves to approve the following procedure
regarding laguage credit for the Core Curriculum:

CREDIT FOR TESTING: UAF will accept as language credit for the
CORE curriculum the successful completion of accredited testing in
languages not offered by UAF. ONLY tests that are equivalent to the
first two semesters of specifically LANGUAGE STUDY (5+5 or 3+3+3
in ASL) will count toward CORE. Other language tests and transfer
credit will continue to be accepted for humanities credit.

EFFECTIVE: Upon Chancellor's Approval

RATIONALE: Currently, UAF lacks a formal procedure for
handling work in languages not offered as UAF, as it
pertains to the core curriculum option in the
"Perspectives on the Human Condition." This motion
provides a procedure.

The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #88 on
May 3, 1999:

MOTION PASSED AS AMENDED
==========================

The UAF Faculty Senate moves to approve the following minimum
requirements for Master's Degrees.

Master's Degree Requirements

The 乐虎直播 offers two catagories of
master's degrees: 1) research-oriented (thesis or project) and 2)
practice-oriented (non-thesis) master's degrees. Research-oriented
programs prepare graduate students for scholarly or research
activity directed mainly toward the acquisition of new knowledge,
while that of practice-oriented graduate programs prepare graduate
students for professional practice directed mainly toward
application or transmission of existing knowledge. All degree
requirements must be completed within a seven-year time period.
The minimum requirements for a master' s degree at the University
of 乐虎直播 Fairbanks are as follows (individual departments may have
additional requirements):

Requirements

1. Formulate a unified degree program, in cooperation with your
graduate advisory committee. Degree programs must be composed of
courses in the discipline or clearly related to and/or supportive of
that discipline. All courses to be applied toward the degree must be
approved by the advisory committee and follow the requirements set
forth by the department that sponsors the degree.

2. Specific requirements for the master's degree are:

a. Submit a Graduate Study Plan (GSP), Appointment of
Committee form, and annual Report of Committee form
to the Graduate School. It is suggested that the GSP and
Appointment of Committee forms be submitted by the
end of the first year of study.

b. Be registered for at least 6 credits per year (fall,
spring, summer) or have an approved leave of absence
on file.

c. Pass a written and/or oral comprehensive examination
which may be combined with a project or thesis defense,
OR in some programs (e.g. the MBA program) a capstone
course OR SYNTHESIZING PAPER, that includes
demonstration of the ability to synthesize information
in the field at a level appropriate for a master's degree,
may be substituted for a comprehensive examination.

d. Submit an Advancement to Candidacy form to the
Graduate School. Once submitted, this form supplants
the GSP and serves to formally establish specific degree
requirements.

e. If a thesis or project is required, pass an oral defense
of the thesis/project.

f. Submit an application for graduation and be registered
for at least 3 graduate credits in the semester in which
the degree is to be awarded.

g. Complete all degree requirements within the seven year
time limit allowed.

Credit Requirements

a. To earn a master's degree, you must satisfactorily
complete a minimum of 30 semester credits.

b. At least [[24]] 21 semester credits, including those
earned for thesis and research/project, must be at the
600-level. The rest may be made up of 300-400 level
credits.

c. No 100-, 200- or 500-level credits may be applied
toward master's degree requirements.

d. A maximum of 12 semester credits of thesis (699)
and/or research (698) may be applied toward degree
requirements. You may enroll in more than 12 thesis
and/or research credits, but only l2 may be applied
toward your degree. When a thesis is required, it must
carry 6 or more credits. In nonthesis programs, a
maximum of 6 credits may be devoted to research.

EFFECTIVE: Fall 1999

RATIONALE: The master's degree requirements, passed
during UAF faculty senate meeting #71 eliminated all
non-thesis master's degrees except those that fall under
the professional category. Eliminating these non-thesis
degrees has serious ramifications for students pursuing
master's degrees in several programs. The intent of the
original motion was to set minimum standards and
reduce the disparity in requirements for different
categories of master's degrees. In the end the motion
served to complicate the master's degree requirements
and left at least 23 master's degrees out of compliance
with the new requirements. Bringing these degrees into
compliance would likely result in a drop in graduate
applications since these new requirements are more
stringent than those of many universities across the
nation. This new motion makes minor alterations to the
master's degree requirements as they existed prior to
meeting #71 and insures that non-thesis master's
degrees which are a vital part of the UAF graduate
curriculum will continue to be offered in a manner
competititve with similar programs at other
universities.

The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #88 on
May 3, 1999:

MOTION PASSED
==============

The UAF Faculty Senate moves to recommend that the Board of
Regents change its policy 05.10.01, section I (Tuition and Student
Fees) to enable foreign students to be exempt from the non-resident
surcharge after their first year.

EFFECTIVE: Immediately

RATIONALE: Previously, foreign students at UAF were
treated like out-of-state students: they paid resident
tuition after their first year. The rules changed,
however, and now they pay non-resident tuition for all
their years at UAF. This reduces foreign students'
incentives to attend our University, at a time when we
seek to internationalize our student body. Most foreign
students are serious about their academic work,
contribute diversity to the campus community, and link
our programs/activities to those abroad. Further, the
cost of eliminating non-resident tuition for foreign
students is likely to be recouped through a substantial
increase in the number of such students at UAF.

The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #88 on
May 3, 1999:

MOTION PASSED
==============

The UAF Faculty Senate moves to amend the UAF Faculty
Appointment and Evaluation Policies and Regulations for the
Evaluation of Faculty: Initial Appointment, Annual Review,
Reappointment, Promotion, Tenure, and Sabbatical Leave as attached.

EFFECTIVE: Immediately
Upon Chancellor's Approval

RATIONALE: The Senate's motion will revise and simplify
the two documents of the Faculty Appointment and
Evauation Policies and the Regulations for the Evaluation
of Faculty. The two items are now covered by the
collective bargaining agreement between the University
of 乐虎直播 and the applicable bargaining union.

For full documents see:

Draft UAF Faculty Appointment and Evaluation Policies (4/20/99)

[[ ]] = Deletion
CAPS = Addition

The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #88 on
May 3, 1999:

MOTION PASSED AS AMENDED
==========================

The UAF Faculty Senate moves to recommend to the Provost that the
following administrators be reviewed on a four year cycle:

Executive Dean, College of Rural 乐虎直播
[[Director, School of Agriculture & Land Resource Management
Director, UAF Museum
Director, Institute of Marine Science
Director, Bristol Bay Campus
Director, Chukchi Campus
Director, Interior-Aleutians Campus
Director, Tanana Valley Campus
Director, Geophysical Institute]]
Dean, School of Fisheries & Ocean Sciences
[[Director of Library]]
Dean of Graduate School
[[Director, School of Mineral Engineering]]
Dean, College of Natural Resource Development & Management
[[Director, School of Management
Director, School of Education]]
Dean, College of Liberal Arts
Dean, College of Science, Engineering, & Math
[[Director, Institute of Arctic Biology
Director, Institute of Northern Engineering
Director, Kuskokwim Campus
Director, Northwest Campus
Director, 乐虎直播 Cooperative Extension
Director, Center for Distance Education
Director, Arctic Region Supercomputer Center
Director, International Arctic Research Center]]

(If interim administrators are still in place after four years they
should be considered for evaluation.)

(Any other administrators will be reviewed on an ad hoc basis when
requested by 25 percent of the faculty in their unit.)

EFFECTIVE: Immediately

RATIONALE: The Appeals and Oversight Committee was
tasked during fall semester 1998 with reviewing the
policy for the evaluation of administrators. The primary
qualification for selection for periodic review by the
Provost's Office was administrators holding academic
rank whose positions directly impact the academic
programs and whose performance directly affects the
ability of faculty to carry out their academic duties.

The committee met at its ninth and last meeting of the
Spring semester and reviewed previous policy (Dec. 17,
1990, Mtg. #23, May 7, 1990, Mtg. #19 and Feb. 8,1996,
Mtg. #61) concerning evaluation of administrators. The
committee recommended resubmission of the list of
administrative positions for periodic review based on
the rationale determined by previous Senate motions.

The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #88 on
May 3, 1999:

MOTION PASSED
==============

The UAF Faculty Senate moves to recommend a plan for the
evaluation of the Office of Chancellor, University of 乐虎直播
Fairbanks.

EFFECTIVE: Immediately

RATIONALE: The purpose of any assessment is to enhance
the quality and contribution of the University. The
Faculty Appeals & Oversight Committee sought
information from other colleges regarding their
experience with senior officer evaluation. The
Chancellor Assessment Plan is based on information
derived from a publication by The Association of
Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges,
Washington, D.C.; Presidential Assessment--A Guide to
the Periodic Review of the Performance of Chief
Executives, by John Nason, 1984.

CHANCELLOR ASSESSMENT

PURPOSE

The purpose of the evaluation is to enable the Board to assess the
performance of the Chancellor.

To develop strategies to enhance strengths and correct weaknesses.

To define by the Chancellor and perceive by the President and Board
of Regents the scope and role of the Office and the Chancellor's
performance in it.

CHANCELLOR EVALUATION: OBJECTIVES

Identify specific areas of institutional management that need
improvement.

Develop evaluation procedures and foster the kind of interaction that
would direct university resources toward educational change and
service.

Encourage a mutually supportive relationship between the various
governing boards and the Chancellor.

Clarify the balance between internal and external views of the
decision making process.

Provide the Chancellor with an assessment of the way in which s/he
is perceived to be fulfilling the institution's expectations by
faculty, staff, students, alumni and the public.

Support other aspects of University performance review by focusing
attention upon management and by using evaluation as a vehicle to
analyze institutional assumptions and priorities.

EVALUATION COMPONENTS

A conscious intent to evaluate through foresight and planning.

Appoint an individual or committee to take charge of the evaluation
review. The committee should consist of faculty, staff, students and
alumni.

Any review of the Chancellor's performance should take into account
the unique characteristics of the University and its governance
structure.

Prior to an evaluation, criteria must be explicit, understood and
agreed to by all concerned.

Consider beginning with a self-evaluation. This may be the most
important component of the whole process.

The Chancellor should have an opportunity to review and respond to
the committee's report.

The committee must be sensitive to the Chancellor's legitimate
concerns and yet insist on having the final word.

After the review committee has considered the results of the
evaluation, it should be made public by the Chancellor's supervisor.

Time is an important factor in conducting evaluations. An
evaluation frequency of five years is recommended, with the
evaluation process completed within a four month time period.
