SECTION 2. The Senate Executive Committee shall serve as the chief governing body for all matters before the Senate. It shall be the purpose of the Senate Executive Committee to guide the actions of the Senate so as to enhance all Faculty Senate activities. The Senate Executive Committee shall request representation from the SEC in meetings with the President, Provost, other administrators, or other committees concerning the charge of the senate (e.g., academic affairs) as needed.

SECTION 3. The Senate Executive Committee shall consist of:

  • Voting members, one senator from each college and the libraries, elected by the faculty in their respective units for two-year staggered terms.
  • The Senate president who serves as the chair of the Senate Executive Committee who serves as a non-voting member except in the case of a tie.
  • Additionally, the president-elect, the Senate librarian and the Senate secretary shall serve in an advisory role as non-voting members, unless they represent their colleges on the Senate Executive Committee.
  • In the event all Senate Executive Committee members have a single “home” campus, the Senate president, in consultation with appropriate senators, may appoint an additional non-voting elected senator from a counterpart campus to address apportionment. Additional faculty members may be invited to the SEC to consult on specific issues.
  • A non-voting staff member designated by the president of the University shall serve as a liaison with the Senate Executive Committee. Staff assistance and administrative support shall be provided through the Office of the Faculty Senate.

Additional information about the SEC can be found in the Bylaws.
