MEMBERS OF THE REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY MEMBERS OF THE ACADEMIC SENATE, SAN DIEGO DIVISION
October 12, 2021 Representative Assembly Meeting
Dear Colleagues:
The first meeting of the 2021-2022 academic year is scheduled for Tuesday, October 12th 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 Samantha Maheu at smaheu@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.
On the Senate’s homepage under Assembly/Council Meetings, on the lower right side of the 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, former Divisional Chair Steven Constable will provide a Senate overview, and University Librarian Erik Mitchell and Committee on Library Chair Mark Hanna will provide an update on UC Open Access Agreements. In addition, the Educational Policy Committee will provide updates on the Policy for Calculation of the GPA in the Major, the Policy on Distance Education Courses, and a new Policy on Syllabi for Courses, and the Committee on Extended Studies and Public Service will present a proposal to revise Divisional Senate Bylaw 260.
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 noon on Friday, October 8th. 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.
Sincerely,
Tara Javidi Chair Academic Senate, San Diego Division
University of California San Diego, 9500 Gilman Drive, La Jolla, CA, 92093
