Faculty Council & Committee Eligibility
In order to be eligible for appointment to Faculty Council Representative At Large and/or Faculty Council committee member, you must be a member of the Faculty Senate.
Each campus Faculty Assembly is responsible for electing and appointing two to three Faculty Senate members to be Faculty Council representatives at large and/or standing committee members.
Terms of Faculty Council representatives at large and committee members are three years, with renewal possible for an additional three-year term. At least one year without membership must follow each pair of three-year terms. Ideally, terms are staggered so that members' terms don't end at the same time.
