December 1, 2020 Representative Assembly Meeting

Dear Colleagues:  

The second meeting of the 2020-21 academic year is scheduled for Tuesday, December 1st from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.  The meeting will be held via Zoom.  Representative Assembly members will receive the Zoom link directly.  If you are a Senate member who is not an Assembly Representative and you would like to attend the meeting, please RSVP to Ashley Welch at awelch@ucsd.edu to obtain the login instructions.  All Senate members are welcome to attend.  

The Notice of Meeting (agenda) and all pertinent documents are available on the following webpages.
(1)             On the Senate’s homepage under Assembly/Council Meetings, on the lower right side of the page.
(2)             On the Representative Assembly-Schedule page. 

Although the meeting will start at 3:30, we are asking meeting participants to begin logging in at 3:15 to allow time for each participant to be admitted into the meeting.  We also ask that your Zoom name match your real name, so that you may be identified.  The meeting materials include this and other important Zoom information for this meeting.  

Chancellor Khosla and Executive Vice Chancellor Simmons will address the Assembly at this meeting and the following proposals will be made.
  • Proposal to Establish PhD Specialization in Immunology, Division of Biological Sciences and Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program.
  • Proposal to Amend San Diego Divisional Senate Regulation 703, Requirements for the Master of Finance Degree.
  • Proposal to Establish MS in Data Science, Halicioğlu Data Science Institute.
  • Proposal to Establish Master of Data Science (online), Halicioğlu Data Science Institute.
  • Proposal to Amend Senate Manual Appendix II, UCSD Policy on Integrity of Scholarship.
  • Proposal to Amend Senate Manual Appendix 5.3, Bylaws of Thurgood Marshall College.
  • Proposal to establish a Department of Neurological Surgery.
  • SIO Faculty - A Motion on the UCOP Curtailment Proposal Submitted for Discussion/Vote
As large Zoom meetings do not lend themselves to free-flowing discussion, I ask that you please review the meeting materials in advance of the meeting and send questions to academicsenateoffice@ucsd.edu with the agenda topic number in the subject line of the email, by Monday morning, November 30th.  Your questions will be shared with the presenters so that they may be prepared to discuss them in advance.  Discussion will necessarily be limited.  

Primary Representatives and Alternate Representatives should coordinate their attendance and voting for this meeting.  Both may attend; however, Alternate Representatives may only vote in the absence of the Primary Representative.  Please coordinate who will attend and cast votes, in advance of the meeting.  

Stay healthy,

Steven Constable
