Dear Colleagues:
The final Representative Assembly meeting of the 2023-24 academic year is scheduled for Tuesday, June 11 from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. This meeting was scheduled to address pending Senate business submitted by standing committees and faculties. 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 the Academic Senate Office at academicsenateoffice@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. http://senate.ucsd.edu
- On the Representative Assembly-Schedule page.

Although the meeting will start at 3:30, we ask 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.
Senior Associate Dean of Graduate Education and Postdoctoral Affairs Judy Kim and Professor of Political Science Thad Kousser will present the Senate Administration Workgroup Report on the Future of Graduate Education. In addition, the following proposals will be presented:
- Department of Medicine proposal to establish an MAS in Precision Medicine Therapeutics in Oncology
- Department of Urban Studies and Planning proposals to establish a PhD in Urban Studies and Planning and Master of Urban Studies and Regional Planning
- Proposal to amend San Diego Divisional Regulation 525, Undergraduate Instructional Apprentice
- Proposal to amend San Diego Divisional Regulation 502, Grade Appeals
- Proposal to amend San Diego Divisional Bylaw 241, Senate Awards
- Proposal to amend San Diego Divisional Regulation 605, Academic Requirements of Revelle College
- Proposal to amend San Diego Divisional Appendix 5.7, Bylaws of the Faculty of the School of Medicine
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 Monday, June 10. Your questions will be shared with the presenters so that they may be prepared to discuss them in advance.
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,
