Chair Gilbert
called the meeting to order at
II.
URGENT BUSINESS
It was m/s/p [Boyum/Junn] to amend the agenda for
the Senate Electoral Meeting to include under Urgent Business ASD 03-69 Draft
Electronic Email Policy. Senator Boyum
explained the Senate discussed this policy at the Senate Marathon meeting
earlier and was very close to a vote, but technically this is a new Senate and
new agenda, so it requires an amendment to the agenda and requires some
reflection on the part, particularly the new Senators whether they are prepared
to move forward on this.
It was m/s/p [Guerin/Bedell] to amend the
agenda to include receipt of the PRBC Annual Report.

Senator
Tavakolian called attention to the fact that the Senate had violated their own
rule. A candidate must receive 50
percent of the votes cast. Senators
re-voted for the three members-at- large seats.
During the
balloting, Senator Sutphen presented a brief year-end PRBC report and noted the
committee had moved toward a more “full disclosure” budget model similar to that
used at CSU,
Senator
Pasternack presented the Faculty Flow Report.
He explained the focus of the committee was to look at what was
important in terms of recruiting success, retention, and retirement
planning. The committee also addressed
two additional issues: 1) trying to
estimate future hiring needs over next 8-10 years; and 2) developing a
financial model for how much could be saved in terms of retirement and whether
those monies could then be used for recruiting or salary savings. System success rate has ranged around 75
percent over the last few years; however, individual success rate by campus has
varied and success rate in disciplines also varied.
Senator
Pasternack concluded his report and was thanked by the Senate. Senate returned to document ASD 03-60 Draft Electronic
Email for further discussion.
It was m/s and accepted as a friendly amendment
[Guerin/Nanjundappa] lines 36-38 on page 3, to move the paragraph to page 4
under g to read “Under these conditions,
account holders agree to provide copies of electronic mail generated from an
account regardless of whether the electronic mail is stored on a computer owned
or leased by the university.”
It was m/s/p [Wolverton/Buck] a substitute
amendment line 37 on page 3, to change an account to read “a university account.”
It was m/s and accepted as a friendly amendment
[Buck/Reisman] on page 4, under g. to delete the word agree and insert “should be aware that by law they may be
required.”
It was m/s/p [Rutemiller/Bedell] to call the
question.
Motion passed unanimously to approve document ASD 03-69 as
amended.
The
meeting adjourned at
