CAMPUS NOTICE

 

ACADEMIC SENATE: SAN DIEGO DIVISION

May 5, 2009


ACADEMIC SENATE MEMBERS

SUBJECT:    UC Presidential Authority

Dear Colleagues,

Last month I informed you that President Yudof was considering seeking new Presidential authority that would allow him to invoke unprecedented emergency budget powers if and when certain criteria are met. I want to thank all of you who responded with comments.

We have now received the proposed revisions to the Standing Order of The Regents 100.4 and the Draft Implementation Plan Guidelines that would grant President Yudof such authority. These documents are posted on the San Diego Senate website at:

A discussion is planned for the May 26 Representative Assembly meeting, and I encourage you to attend and participate. If you are unable to attend, please forward any comments that you have to Diane Hamann, Director, Academic Senate, San Diego Division, at dhamann@ucsd.edu.


Daniel J. Donoghue
Chair
Academic Senate
San Diego Division
