MOTION
Motion to approve the minutes from the 7 November 2013 Faculty Senate
Meeting by
SECOND
OUTCOME Unanimous
The Chief informed the
Faculty Senate on the campaign to inform faculty, staff and Students on the
importance of signing up for the Code Purple information system.
This system communicates information to the campus citizens on a weather
alert or an emergency situation. The
police have been orienting students on the definitions of “Lockdown” (Preventing
an intruder from entering your area) and “Shelter in Place” (Avoid dangerous
conditions outside the building).
A drill will be held once a year so that faculty and students will know
what to do in either situation. No
date has been set yet and will be announced
This will only effect daytime schedules at this time.
The Lockdown Exercise will only last 3-5 minutes.
All clear would be sent to end the exercise.
How would I barricade a door?
Get to a safe place where you could block the doors.
Would the exercise be during class time?
Yes, so that students can be involved in the exercise.
Freshman signup has dropped off.
We do go to Orientation to explain what it’s about.
What about night classes? We
would consider that. Go to
www.weber.edu/codepurple to sign up.

DISCUSSION – NTM Program and Course Proposals.
Business and Economics were concerned that they
were not informed about these changes.
A discussion needs to take place concerning the programs and courses that
are changing that include Marketing in the name.
Making Finance 1010 a required course instead of
an elective. The class may not be offered
on a regular basis.
Program for Network Security Technology
Certificate
Concerns with Security in the name of this
certificate. Business has several
courses on Information Security. How to distinguish between them.
How would this all fall out to students about what could happen there.
Discussions between departments need to take place.
Was no overlap.
Pass the proposal pending that the departments with concerns meet and discuss the concerns. If parties are able to agree with the Program and Course proposals then Letters of Support will be submitted to the Faculty Senate and that information will approve rest NTM package. If the parties cannot come to an agreement, then the proposals will be sent back to the department for further review.

Becky Marchant, Chair
DISCUSSION
Review and update PPM’s in Section 6.
The PPM was reviewed and language was clarified to meet the way that
students are admitted into WSU.
There were also clarifications to remove the references so that this policy
doesn’t need to be revised continually.
For example the WSU Math & English Placement Standards Document.
How do we know what changes with Admissions Policy so that we know how to
advise our student’s.
Motion to end the discussion by Tom Matthews.

Discussion centered on the concerns the faculty
have on the Library remodel.
A video clip was shown on what compact shelving
looks like. It would create more
space for books. This can only be done on
the ground level. Due to the weight
of the shelving it cannot be utilized on the second or third floors.
It will be open to patrons of the library.
It is better if you know what book you want to retrieve.
Not so convenient for browsing books on the shelf.
Testing Center is a key issue due to the amount
of space a center would occupy. The
more stations the better efficiency. There
is a larger amount of paper and
pencil tests being done. Many feel
the library is not the right place for a testing center.
It would remove a large area of floor space that could be used for books.
If the testing center is not placed in the library, that part of the
funding would go elsewhere.
Key issues seem to be the space involved in
compact shelving and reducing the collection on the library shelves.
Purging the collection is not new to the library.
It has to be done in order to make room for new books.
Students were surveyed on the library remodel.
Students would like to be more involved in the discussions and give their
concerns.
Library collection has grown in the past 6 years.
eBooks have increased in use at the library.
Recommendation to have Library faculty meet with
their colleges to find out what concerns the faculty have and take this
information to Executive Committee.
The discussions need to be done in a timely fashion so that any recommendations
can be given to Administration.
Move that the Library Subject Specialists solicit
their respective college faculty and have discussions about the concerns from
faculty on the library remodel addressed om the petition and include Student
Senators to share the concerns the students have on the remodel. The
Library Subject Specialists will give recommendations of their findings to the
Executive Committee at a future meeting(date to be determined) by Laura
Anderson.
