"The Faculty Senate Constitution (IX. Meetings of the Faculty Senate, Paragraph #1) should be amended to move the date for setting the Faculty Senate meeting dates out of the Faculty Senate Constitution and into the By-laws. The by-law will state that the Senate will approve the meeting dates for the Faculty Senate meetings of the next year no later than the fourth meeting of the fall semester." We would like for the Faculty Governance Committee to present this as a resolution to the Faculty Senate for the Senate's approval. Since this is an amendment to the Constitution, it will require two readings to the Senate, and if approved by the Senate, will require approval of the general faculty at the Fall 1990 Convocation. Thank you for presenting this issue to the Faculty Governance Committee. Should you have questions regarding this matter, please call me at ext. 4454. THIS RECOMMENDATION WAS PASSED BY THE FACULTY GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE ON NOVEMBER 8, 1989. East Carolina University is a constituent institution of The University of North Carolina An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer ATTACHMENT 3 RESOLUTION TO THE UNC FACULTY ASSEMBLY ON INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETIC REFORM Whereas recent revelations of goal confusion in intercollegiate athletics in higher education in North Carolina underscore continuing and persistent intentions of outside groups and individuals to subordinate academic integrity to enhance intercollegiate performance, and Whereas these intentions are aided and abetted by certain institutional weaknesses and systemic failures that reduce accountability to the academic community entrusted with the charge to sponsor and sustain the threatened academic integrity, and Whereas President C.D. Spangler has recommended to the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina certain institutional adjustments and concurrently sought greater faculty activity and responsibility in matters pertaining to the oversight of student-athletics, Be it resolved that the Faculty Senate of East Carolina University in order to prevent the recurrence of present and past distortions of academic integrity resulting from intercollegiate athletic intrusions, subscribe to and recommend the following institutional reforms in higher education in North Carolina: A. That the Board of Governors seek at once legislative permission to include the faculty-elected chairperson of the faculty senate or faculty council of each constituent institution of the University as an ex-officio member of each institution's board of trustees. Such an appointment would correspond to the existing ex-officio membership of the president of each constituent institution's Student Government Association and allow direct access to faculty academic concerns. B. That each academic intercollegiate athletic committee, in addition to meeting the National Collegiate Athletic Association's requirements, contain full-time permanently tenured faculty members elected by the institution's faculty senate or council to a term of no more than three years. At least two academic years should pass before re-election. The chairperson of the committee shall be drawn from these faculty-elected representatives. The committee shall report each semester to the appropriate faculty senate or council. Such procedures would reduce the conflict of interests generated in athletic departments and aid in the prevention of the co-option of committee members by priorities other than those attendant to the preservation and advancement of academic integrity. C. That all academic advising be housed in the division of academic affairs and that its director and the director of student-athlete advising be permanently tenured faculty members drawn from the faculties of one of the institution's undergraduate degree granting programs. Intercollegiate athletic coaches should be allowed to teach courses only with the approval of the appropriate discipline's faculty. Any teaching and administrative responsibilities for intercollegiate coaches should be determined by the faculty of the relevant disciplines. D. That all extracurricular athletic fund raising and so-called booster club funds be given oversight by the primary institutional development officer and that each constituent institution's athletic operating budget move to a self-sustaining condition based on revenues. The amounts and applications of such funds raised by such groups or individuals shall be a part of the annual report by the intercollegiate athletic committee to the institutional faculty senate or council. These extracurricular and booster funds should not be used in compensating athletic officials. Furthermore, the Board of Governors shall take steps including seeking legislative authorization to effect direct financial compensation from public funds for athletic coaches and to provide that additional income generated by the athletic coaches fall under existing regulations relating to off-campus employment of full time state employees. E. That faculty senates or councils of institutions involved in intercollegiate athletics develop a system to prevent the abuse of the grade of incomplete.
