Attachment 1, Page 2 : ENABLING RESOLUTION: Upon acceptance of the Unit Code Screening Committee by the Faculty Senate, the Committee on Committees is charged to submit a slate of nominees with staggered terms (3 terms for one year, 2 terms for two years, and 2 terms for three years) within a reasonable time to the Faculty Senate. If the Committee is appointed during the 86-87 Academic Year, the one-year terms will expire in July, 1988, the two-year terms will expire in July, 1989, the three-year terms will expire in July, 1990. The change in the charge of the Faculty Governance Committee will be instituted only upon approval and election of the Unit Code Screening Committee. REASONS: The proposal for a new Unit Code Screening Committee and the changes to the Charge of the Faculty Governance Committee are proposed in response to a request from the Faculty Governance Committee. The Chair of that Committee indicated that with so many revisions pending, such as those to Appendixes C, D, and L of the Faculty Manual and individual units both submitting new codes and wanting to make changes in existing ones, the work load of the Committee is such that there is no time to devote to other governance matters. ast Carolina University OFFICE of THE VICE CHANCELLOR reenville, North Carolina 27834-4353 204 WHICHARD 919-757-6541 = October 22, 1986 MEMORANDUM HO Joe Calder FROM: Elmer Meyer, Jr. o(~—— Vice Chancellor for Student Life ——— SUBJECT: Parking for Events in Wright Auditorium As I mentioned to you at the staff meeting today, the Faculty Senate was told three things would happen with parking on nights when events in Wright are scheduled: No cone would be placed at the entrance to the private parking lot. Faculty with "P“ stickers may park in other areas on these nights and not be ticketed, or if they were in advertently ticketed the fine would be waived. a Faculty teaching classes would be permitted to park in the cone areas upon identifying themselves. One other suggestion came up last night: Since the large parking lot on the other side of Tenth Street has many empty spaces, officers and others should direct people to park in that lot. I understand that you and Rudy Alexander will further refine this procedure before the next event in Wright takes place. Thanks for your help.
