DEPARTMENTAL GOVERNANCE:
PROCEDURE TO SET UP A UNIVERSITY ARBITRATION COMMITTEE
The procedure to set up a university arbitration committee shall be as detailed in Appendix 9-92 (see below).
APPENDIX 9-92
Should disputes result from implementation of proposals adopted by the senate, an appeal process is needed.
In the event of any dispute, the concerned department/school will request the senate to form the university arbitration committee for department/school and administration dispute.
A committee of 3 members will be formed to resolve disputes between the department/school and the administration. The 3 members are selected as follows:
The senator will chair the committee. The committee will arbitrate the dispute.
The Following Conditions Apply to Proposals 5-92 through 9-92:
1. Departments/schools will be asked to follow these procedures in 1992-93. If all parts of the procedures are not followed, the unit committee should inform the
senate president, in writing the reasons for the changes and the aspect of the procedure that should be retained during revision. This information will be used by
the senate for revising the procedures.
2. Editorial or procedural changes next year and in the future may be made by the senate, but any changes that affect faculty governance will require faculty
referendum.
3. A simple majority of eligible faculty is needed to approve changes.
