Statement
of Faculty Senate Action:
FWDC 10: Proposal
to Revise the Professional Development Leave Policy
(Revision
of SD4506S; Faculty Handbook 4.1.4)
Effective Date: Immediately
Add: to Faculty Handbook Section 4.1.4 Professional Development Leave
under 4.1.4.3:
NOTE: Members of the Faculty Senate who are
selected for Professional Development Leave shall resign from the Faculty
Senate.
Rationale:
The
2006-07 Faculty Senate asked FWDC to clarify eligibility for service on the
Faculty Senate while on Professional Development Leave. It is essential that Senators attend meetings
and that colleagues have normal access to them.
It is also unrealistic to expect faculty to fulfill Senate
responsibilities while on Professional Development Leave.
