Random Musings from the Chair

Electronic Elections

The current plan is to eliminate the paper ballot for the Fall Senate election. Becky Glass took the lead over the summer in suggesting that we ought to be able to run the elections on the web, and Maryann Stopha and CIT have been working on getting the system up and in place. Barring last-minute glitches, I plan on having voting done on the web, which should save a couple of trees and save a few person-hours that are usually spent counting the ballots. (We won't mention the person-hours that are being spent designing and implementing the election system).

Thanks

I would like to thank the Nominations Committee for their work in putting together the slate for the fall elections. Randy Bailey had been the chair of the Nominations Committee, and with his death the work of the chair fell into the laps of Pat Murphy and Jim Allen, and they did a masterful job of making sure that the committee met its tight timetable. I would also like to thank the outgoing members of the Committee. Cyndy Klima stepped in at the last moment to take Randy's place on the Committee, while Anne-Marie Reynolds and Wendy Pogozelski, found time to continue on Nominations in spite of all the other committee work that they have. Of course, now that nominations are in, I can find more things for them to do on Executive...

Policy concerning distribution of course syllabi.

I anticipate the Policy Committee bringing to the floor a motion to require the distribution of course syllabi in paper form to each class at the beginning of the semester (c.f. Bulletin, p. 65). At press time, I do not have the language of the motion. Come to the Senate meeting and find out!
