Spring 2022 Meeting of the Campus Faculty: 'Our Vision of the Next Chancellor'
The Spring 2022 meeting of the Campus Faculty will be held virtually from 3-5 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 17, via Zoom. The topic of the meeting will be "Our Vision of the Next Chancellor" and will comprise a faculty-wide discussion about what we want out of the next chancellor of the U of A. The goal of the meeting is to codify ideas that we may present to the Chancellor's Search Committee, chaired by Dean Kim Needy of the College of Engineering.
The Campus Faculty is an organization comprising all professors who have at least half-time faculty appointments and are either tenured, on a tenure track or are instructors or lecturers in their third (or greater) consecutive year of appointment at the U of A. Campus Faculty meets regularly once each semester. Officers include Chair Stephen Caldwell, Vice Chair Christopher Goering, Secretary Linda Jones and Parliamentarian Robert Brady.
