The final Faculty Senate meeting of this academic year is Thursday, May 2, from 4:10 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Faculty Commons Building at 1101 19th Ave. S.
Voting members (elected senators and deans) should attend in person to assure a physical quorum for several items that require a vote.
The meeting will include remarks from Chancellor Daniel Diermeier and Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs C. Cybele Raver, and Faculty Senate Chair Andrea Capizzi will report on the Faculty Well-Being Survey. Resolutions from the academic policies and services committee, the faculty manual committee, the strategic planning and academic freedom committee and the Faculty Senate will be presented. A report will be presented from the Liberal Arts Across Vanderbilt Academic Schools committee, and leadership elections will be held.
Since this is the final meeting of the school year, there will be a reception afterward. All faculty are invited.
