Dear Chancellor Howell:

The six listed resolutions which were passed by the Faculty Senate December
11, 1984, are presented for your consideration.

84-38 * That the Faculty Senate of East Carolina University endorse the
intention of the Faculty Assembly to participate actively in the
selection of the new president of the UNC system and to see such
endorsement forwarded to Phil Carson (Chair of the Board of
Governors) .

That the Faculty Senate instruct the Chair to appoint two senators to
the Academic Liaison Committee on On-Line Registration with the
senators reporting to the Senate.

Report from the Calendar Committee on concerns regarding on-line
registration:

That the Senate endorses the policy of allowing students to change
majors at any time the receiving department is willing to accept the
student.

It is unreasonable, if not impossible, for unit secretaries to add
on-line computer registration to their already overburdened workload.
The subcommittee recommends that General College students' schedules
be keyed in outside the unit and that units with a large number of
majors and/or unusual scheduling and technical problems be assigned
temporary employees.

The Senate recommends that the faculty who will be directly involved
in the on-line registration process and department chairs be
represented on the On-Line Registration Planning Group initiating
procedures regarding implementation of on-line registration.

The Senate recommends that the Registrar, Computing Center
representatives, and other appropriate members of the On-Line
Registration Planning Group visit departments to study the logistics
of the proposed on-line registration procedure.

Report of the Credits Committee:

East Carolina University Bulletin/Undergraduate Catalogue, 1984-86,
page 55, "Dropping and Adding Courses":

During the first 40% of the regularly scheduled class meetings,
including the meeting for the final examination, a student may at his
or her option drop a course without penalty. For regular semester-
length courses, the drop period is limited to a first thirty class
days of the semester. For five-week block courses or regular summer
session courses, the drop period is limited to the first

ten days of the class for the semester or summer session. The same
40% drop period rule applies to block courses of other lengths as
well. Students are advised to consult official university bulletin
boards to determine the appropriate drop period for such block
courses.

The following change would replace the first full sentence of the
second paragraph. The remainder of the paragraph would be retained.

Page 56, third paragraph, first line and a half changed to: After
the first 40% of the regularly scheduled class meetings of a course,
as defined in the preceding paragraph and as specified by the
Registrar a student
