Senate Controversies Continue

The Assembly of the systemwide Academic Senate will be meeting via Zoom this afternoon in a special meeting called by petition:

The main issue is a systemwide conversion from the three-quarter system to a two-semester system. A special meeting will occur tomorrow on that issue and on the timing of administrative pay adjustments:

Salary Adjustments for Administrators (2:10 - 2:30) [ACTION]

The Assembly is asked to vote on this proposed motion:

“The Academic Senate recommends that all University of California administrators at the Dean level and above receive salary range adjustments at the same time as the regular faculty.”

---

UC Systemwide Academic Calendar (2:30 - 3:30) [ACTION]

1. “Deliberate on the good faith of the consultation process and decision-making regarding the ‘common semester calendar’ when a higher administrator in one of the eight campuses on a quarter system has told multiple faculty members that it is a ‘fait accompli as it lowers cost.’”

The Assembly is asked to vote on this proposed motion:

2. “[A]llow each Division to vote and decide whether to adopt the ‘common semester calendar’ for their specific campus or remain on a quarter system.”
