Academic Deans Council Minutes : October 20, 2010

Abstract

The Annual Research Luncheon was set for November 03, 2010. Policies under the purview of the Student and Academic Affairs division that were scheduled for the next set of Board of Trustees meetings were distributed by email. Summer 2011 would have the same footprint as summer 2010. A proposal to change the "F to W" policy would go to the Academic Standards Committee. Neal McNally and Gene Grilli presented the financial picture for FY11 and a preview to FY 12. Negotiations were to begin during the academic year for the faculty and ACE unions. Departments have been asked to align the current year's annual plans with the four cornerstones of the new strategic plan. Dr. Khawaja asked about the website design for CLASS. Deans were asked to submit names of potential Commencement speakers to Dr. Khawaja and the Academic Events Committee.
