General Assembly April 4, 2024 Meeting Anonymous (not verified) Fri, 04/05/2024 - 08:33

The BFA held it's regular monthly meeting on April 4, 2024 via Zoom. Chancellor DiStefano was on hand to address faculty for the final time as CU �鶹ӰԺ Chancellor. Areas on his mind as the academic year is wrapping up included a concern about academic freedom in light of recent events this year as well as upcoming elections. DiStefano encouraged faculty to be empathetic and to remain open to civic discussion around hard topics. He emphasized that democracy is fragile but that CU �鶹ӰԺ has a critical role to play in educating tomorrow's leaders. During questions from members, DiStefano also said an important concern was the public perception of higher education.

When asked about things over his tenure at CU that he’s most proud of, the chancellor noted that shared governance is unique to higher education and that he's appreciated the guidance from the BFA along with other campus bodies that he's worked with over the years. DiStefano told members that he has great pride in where �鶹ӰԺ stands in relation to AAU peers and gives credit to faculty in particular for their work over the last fifteen years in research, scholarship and creative work. Additionally, he noted that during his time as Provost, he was also proud of work done with the BFA to begin improving conditions for instructors. In particular he noted the efforts of Cathy Comstock and Rolf Norgaard on the Instructor Bill of Rights. DiStefano also noted that previously fundraising in his role was not a main focus, but that through his efforts he more than doubled the amounts and noted that fundraising would continue to play a key role in the future.

Lastly, the chancellor told members that he’s looking forward to returning to the faculty and noted that back in the day he had been an original member of the BFA (known as the Faculty Council at that time). DiStefano received many thanks from representatives for his work at CU in both the room and chat.

Dr. D’Andra Mull, Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs, who joined campus last fall, reviewed the student affairs organization and the role they all play in the student experience. The mission of Student Affairs (SA) mission is to “..create a comprehensively excellent student experience through the development of dynamic programs, services and support structures that prepare Buffs to thrive as lifelong learners in a globally engaged society.” To achieve this her office is focused on student development through engagement, belonging, academic support, and high-impact practices. Mull walked members through an organizational chart designed to give faculty a better understanding of who they can go to for specific issues and how to contact them. Associate Vice Chancellor, Dr. Joe Thomas also spoke with members about his role in connecting and aligning Student Affairs with faculty and academics. He partners with Undergraduate Education on the common curriculum and other high impact programs with Buffs Undergraduate Success (BUS) group. Both Mull and Thomas encouraged faculty to reach out to them directly with any questions.

BFA Chair Miller introduced a resolution on behalf of the Executive Committee BFA-R-1-030424 to recommend that Academic Affairs form a working group next fall to review issues, benefits, and alternatives to the anonymous open comment section currently on the FCQs. Per CU Administrative Policy Statement (APS) 1009 any changes to campus FCQs must include input by faculty and students appointed by shared governance bodies. Concerns regarding the open comment section include: a lack of support and follow-up when students anonymously report misconduct violations instead of utilizing campus reporting procedures, as well as well-established data showing a negative impact on women and under-represented faculty from student biases in anonymous comments. Conversely, many faculty, including the BFA Diversity and Academic Affairs committees support the use of anonymous comments for constructive student feedback for courses and instructors. The BFA Executive Committee supports a full review of the issue and asks that the working group making recommendations to the Provost on the following:

Would the removal of the open comment section be an overall benefit or cost to both faculty and students?
What additions or changes to the FCQs should be made to provide students with the proper resources and information on reporting inappropriate behavior and alerting them to campus support services?
Should the university create an inventory of recommended practices for faculty to collect student feedback on courses and teaching methods that is reviewed annually and notes potential bias issues, and if so, how should this inventory be created and publicized?

The motion is under consideration for thirty days and will be voted on at the May 2 meeting. Representatives are asked to share the resolution with constituents and send all feedback and questions to Shelly Miller at: bfa@colorado.edu.

Lastly, Assembly members heard more about the CU Book Access program for course materials introduced last year. CU Bookstore Director Jessica Carlsen along with Assistant Director Matt Avena, and the Redshelf VP of Product, Tim Shea gave faculty an overview of the program. Goals include ensuring that students have materials on the first day of class, reducing the cost to students - in particular in certain fields, and committing to a reduction in the environmental costs associated with printing thousands of books each semester. Carlsen noted that the high success of the program has already allowed CU to lower the subscription price for all students. Representatives noted issues for faculty included a need for publishers to provide greater useability and to make offerings more faculty focused. Examples included issues like page number confusion between digital and hard copies as well as problems with annotations. Several faculty also pointed to “digital fatigue” that their students were experiencing. Shea welcomed faculty feedback and questions as they continued to improve the system. Carlson stressed that faculty are strongly encouraged to choose whatever course materials are best for their classrooms and noted that the cost of printed over digital will not affect students opting into the program. However Carlsen did want faculty to be aware that most publishers have greatly reduced the availability of printed materials which also impacts the availability of pre-owned items. Avena also offered a potential solution for students to request official photocopies of pages for a few dollars in case they found it useful to have both the digital and hard versions. See the presentation slides and email questions to bfa@colorado.edu and they will be forwarded to Carlsen’s group.

In conclusion BFA Chair Shelly Miller reminded members of the following BFA items:

BFA ExCom Approves Attributes for Next UCB Chancellor Statement Anonymous (not verified) Tue, 01/16/2024 - 13:50

Over winter break, the BFA Executive Committee drafted and approved a statement noting attributes that committee members feel are critical and should guide the selection of the next campus Chancellor:

ATTRIBUTES THAT SHOULD GUIDE THE SELECTION

OF THE NEXT CU BOULDER CHANCELLOR

The Executive Committee of the �鶹ӰԺ Faculty Assembly (BFA) expects the next chancellor of CU �鶹ӰԺ to be appointed from among multiple named finalists chosen by the search committee, all of whom have been vetted through campus meetings with interested faculty, staff, students, and members of the public, whose feedback on the candidates should guide the ultimate appointment.

Drawing on broad discussions and experience over recent years regarding the future of the �鶹ӰԺ Campus, the BFA Executive Committee supports the selection of a Chancellor who:

Supports and has common bonds with the faculty, who, through their inquiry, teaching, and service, express core academic values and function as the engine driving the university. CU �鶹ӰԺ’s chancellor should be a career academic with a national or international reputation for their research or creative work. Such a chancellor will understand the faculty’s commitment to academic values and inspire them to greater scholarly and creative achievements.

Endorses and respects the outcomes of a robust system of shared faculty governance. CU �鶹ӰԺ’s chancellor shall be committed to:
- a robust system of shared faculty governance at all administration levels.
- proactively creating opportunities for and ensuring the consistent and substantive involvement of faculty in establishing academic policy and making decisions that affect CU �鶹ӰԺ and the university system.
- transparency and effective communication and collaboration with faculty and other stakeholders, both in and beyond the university community.
- being an effective communicator and an engaged listener. A chancellor should bring the diverse campus community members together through their ability to tap into and leverage the collective and diverse ideas, talents, and experiences that make up the �鶹ӰԺ campus.
Supports and acts on their commitment to inclusive excellence as a core value that undergirds all that we do. We seek a chancellor who is committed to supporting and expanding campus initiatives for faculty, staff, and students on diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Is an advocate for CU �鶹ӰԺ as a top ten center for excellence in climate crisis action. This includes a commitment to:
- accelerating the move towards renewable energy use for all campus operations in line with limiting global warming to 1.5°C.
- enhancing and improving CU �鶹ӰԺ’s reputation as a top-ten climate change research and education institution.
Values the principles of a comprehensive research university locally, nationally, and globally. The CU �鶹ӰԺ chancellor should take an active, public-facing role in:
- communicating both the value to our civil society of a broad-based education and the contributions that CU-�鶹ӰԺ makes to Colorado and the world.
- recognizing and promoting the importance of global engagement, including research collaborations, student and faculty teaching and research exchanges, and a thoughtful and deliberate CU presence on the international stage.

Approved by the Executive Committee on January 12, 2024

BFA March 2 General Assembly Meeting Anonymous (not verified) Thu, 03/02/2023 - 10:52

On Thursday, March 2, 2023 the BFA Assembly held it's monthly meeting at 4pm via Zoom. Members heard from campus partners on the following areas:

Health & Wellness Services - this unit has recently made some changes in structure as well as to offerings for campus faculty & staff. Interim Associate Vice Chancellor, Jess Doty reviwed some of these changes and spoke with representatives about the unique needs faculty face in their roles. Doty spoke about resources they are offering to support faculty wellness as well as resources for faculty for student referrals.
Faculty Salary Procedures Working Group - Report Review - Committee Co-chairs, Daria Kotys-Schwartz and Steve Vanderheiden presented their draft report that offers a set of guiding principles and related recommendations for faculty salary procedure optimizations.

- Thursday, March 16 from 2-3
  - Assembly presentation slides
  - Draft Report

BFA Chair Tiffany Beechy updated members on two business items that would be coming before representatives in the next month for review at April Assembly. The first was regarding plans for a Campus Curriculum Policy and associated campus Curriculum Committee to meet meet longstanding campus needs, the realities of the new campus budget model, Academic Futures, and the Common Curriculum. Beechy will be sending more details giving the backstory and details of the current policy draft next week. A motion to approve will be introduced at the April General Assembly, allowing for the customary month-long official comment and revision period, with the vote to approve to be held in May.

Additionally, Beechy announced that the Executive Committee was submitting a notice of motion on concealed carry based on the CUSG 97 LCR 08 Concealed Carry legislation from fall (which BFA members voted to endorse) but that will provide additional faculty perspective on the need for such a move in order to ensure the health and wellbeing for students, faculty, and staff on all campuses.

Public Access to Federally Funded Research - BFA, RIO, & LIBR session on OSTP Memo Anonymous (not verified) Thu, 01/19/2023 - 14:54

In August 2022, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy issued a memorandum calling on all federal agencies to make “articles resulting from all U.S. federally funded research freely available and publicly accessible by default in agency-designated repositories without any embargo or delay after publication.” Federal agencies must all have a set policy in place by 2025, however certain funding agencies will need to have new agency plans ready as early as February, 2023.

CU �鶹ӰԺ Libraries has created Guidance for Public Access to Federally Funded Research webpage and resources to support faculty and researchers while this process is in flux. Additionally, the �鶹ӰԺ Faculty Assembly is joining up with Libraries and the Research & Innovation Office (RIO) to offer three Listening & Feedback Sessions so that faculty can find out more about how this may impact research grants in their fields and what support is available on campus. Additionally, these sessions are designed to allow faculty provide feedback on what the Libraries, RIO, and other campus units can do to further support researchers. All sessions will be held via Zoom and are open to all CU �鶹ӰԺ faculty and researchers.

APS 1025 Grading Policy Changes - College & School Faculty Poll

APS 1025 Grading Policy Changes - College & School Faculty Poll Anonymous (not verified) Tue, 04/12/2022 - 12:12

On February 22, 2022, Ravinder Singh, chair of the CU System Faculty Council Educational Policy and University Standards Committee (EPUS), sent a memo to the deans of schools/colleges on all four CU campuses. The memo asked the deans to conduct a vote of the faculty members of their respective schools and colleges to approve a revision to the current University of Colorado Grading Policy (UGP). The proposed changes are to APS 1025 and involve the changes to section II on Grade Symbols as listed below:

Grade Symbols
The instructor is responsible for whatever grade symbol (A, B, C, D, F, I, IP, P, P+, S, or U) is to be assigned. Special symbols, such as NC, W, and ***, and indications of registration or grade status are not assigned by the instructor but are automatically converted by the grade application system, explained under Special Symbols.

Grade - Credit points per credit hour

A - superior/excellent - 4
B - good/better than average - 3
C - competant/average - 2
D - below average - 1
F - failing - 0
I - incomplete - regarded as F if not completed within a maximum of one year
IP - in progress - thesis or multi-semester course at the graduate level only
*P+/P/F - pass plus/pass/fail - applicable for letter-graded courses where the student elects P+/P/F option. Faculty members assign letter grades which are converted as follows:
- P+=C- or greater
- P=D-, D, D+
- F=F
S/U - satisfactory/unsatisfactory - Applicable for non-letter graded courses only (e.g., experiential, field-based courses). Credit is awarded for S. Neither S nor U is included in gpa. Faculty members assign an S or U as follows:
- S=course requirements are satisfied, or expectations met
- U=course requirements are not satisfied, or expectations not met.

In addition, for consistency and clarity, “pass/fail” has been replaced by “P+/P/F” throughout the
document, and the revision includes minor, necessary edits: change wishes to opt, change a course to
an eligible course, and reorder items under the Procedure section (item 4 is now item 1) (see the link
above for details).

The addition of the "P+" was made during the pandemic and the "S/U" component was approved by the �鶹ӰԺ Faculty Assembly at the February 3, 2022 meeting, along with revisions to the campus grade replacement policy. CU �鶹ӰԺ colleges and schools are in the process of conducting those polls.

Per Regent Law and Policy, the faculty of each campus school and college are to be polled in order to implement the proposed revisions to the University of Colorado Uniform Grading Policy.

Per Regent Policy 5.A.1.B:

(B) Tenured and tenure-track faculty with appropriate participation by instructional, research, and clinical faculty, have the principal responsibility for decisions concerning pedagogy, curriculum, research, scholarly or creative work, academic ethics, and recommendations on the selection and evaluation of faculty. The development of general academic policies shall be a collaborative effort between the faculty and administration.

(1) The faculty shall have the principal role in originating academic policy and standards related to: the initiation and direction of all courses, curricula, and degree offerings; admissions criteria, grading and standards for continuation; regulation of student academic conduct; and determination of candidates for honors and degrees.

Additionally, Regent Law Article 4.A.1 states that :

Article 5.A of the Laws of the Regents specifies the shared governance principles of participation. A school or college faculty shall collaborate with the dean in the shared governance of the school or college. Subject to specific Board of Regents requirements, voting membership of a school or college faculty shall be determined by its faculty.

On March 28, 2022 the BFA Executive Committee endorsed the below statement by the CU Faculty Council regarding the recent invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation:

Dear Colleagues,
The University of Colorado Faculty Council condemns the Russian Federation’s unprovoked and inhumane invasion of Ukraine, a sovereign nation. At the core of our deep concern and outrage at this act of aggression is our commitment to the values and principles shared by independent nations, such as Ukraine, and the University, which include the ability to engage in open debate, the pursuit of truth and understanding, and a commitment to human dignity, compassion, and self-determination.
Not only are we profoundly concerned about the welfare and safety of the entire Ukraine population, who remain in desperate need of humanitarian aid, but we are also concerned about our academic and scholarly colleagues who are unable to escape. We join our colleagues all over the world, including those in and from Russia, who are speaking out against this criminal invasion, and we endorse all actions taken by the University of Colorado to support members of the CU community who are being impacted by this tragic situation.

Sincerely,

The University of Colorado Faculty Council Executive Committee
