Reminder: UPI Meeting on Thursday

With a number of questions remaining regarding the DAC and general unhappiness with Administrative efforts at cutting faculty out of decision making at almost all levels on campus-- DAC, curriculum, organization, and most recently in the flagrant disregard of faculty involvement in hiring of tenure-track faculty, not to mention many concerns from colleagues in Unit B, I'm reminding everyone that UPI President has called another meeting this week.

Pass this message on to others.

UPI Meeting
Thursday Oct. 4
12.30-1.50 pm
SCI 100

I don't know how to start a thread exactly, here, but, I do have a question. Why is there no voter's registration being held on campus? I have many freshmen who claim they would register, but I fear they won't get themselves downtown. According to news reports, registration is down, particularly among college-age voters who were a big factor in the election four years ago. It's too late to use an app or to mail it in, now. So? Is it too late to get it on campus?

Thanks to Haki Madhabuti

"1. He/she must be a scholar of national note, with significant peer review publications and books in his or her field. There must be no doubt as to his/her standing in the community of scholars. This would also include a history of the candidate’s participation in the appropriate professional organizations.

2. He/she must have served with distinction as the administrative head of a major unit within an institution of higher learning or at the important position of Provost and/or Dean. Of course, prior service at the presidential level is preferred.

3. He/she must have a documented history of raising significant monies from the private and public sectors. At most major and research one universities it is not unusual to expect the president to come with a plan to raise in excess of half a billion dollars or more in the first few years.

4. The prospective president must have a consensus buy-in from the faculty, students, administration and staff, therefore, arriving with a unity mandate to lead by joining a University community that has bought into his or her vision for the future."
