SenEx OKs faculty discipline plan
By Leslie Hirschbach
Staff writer
The University Senate Executive Committee came one step closer yesterday to ironing out the wrinkles in faculty disciplinary procedures.
SenEx approved changes in disciplinary procedures that Sidney Shapiro, chairman of the committee, said he hoped would make the University consistent on the rare occasions when faculty must be punished.
Faculty now can be charged with two types of misconduct, each with its own set of disciplinary procedures, Shapiro said.
part, he said.
One of the most important changes, he said, was
"The problem is that you can't tell the two
wrong" he said.
the appointment of Faculty Executive Committee to decide which set of procedures would be used
Shapiro said SenEx could have established one set of procedures for all types of misconduct but the University then would have to treat minor misconduct and serious misconduct in the same manner.
When faculty are charged with minor misconduct, or academic misconduct, Shapiro said, the problem usually can be solved without a hearing.
That, he said, would burden disciplinary committees with minor issues.
More serious charges of proscribed conduct, such as sexual harrassment, often involve a more lengthy investigation.
SenEx also placed the FacEx Committee in
charge of appointing a fact-finding committee to investigate some cases of misconduct.
That committee, Shapiro said, will be helpful because it will be able to decide whether there was good cause for the charges and possibly eliminate the need for a tricognitely lengthy hearing.
Shapiro said the changes now would be sent to University Council for final approval.
SenEx also decided to keep the results of a disciplinary hearing secret from all but the person who filed the complaint, the faculty member and the committee in charge of the hearing.
If the changes are approved, Shapiro said, all of the disciplinary rules will be moved into the Senate Rules and Regulations. Some of those rules now are found in the Faculty Code of Conduct.
Leaders ponder shorter Senate terms
In order to help the change, one Senate session would either have to remain in office for an extended session of 18 months or a shortened session of six months, he said.
Epstein said he would not be in favor of the present Senate pursuing an extended term.

Student Senate elections should be moved from November to April, David Epstein, student body president, said sidestavard.
"This job isn't as much fun as I thought it would be," he said.
Epstein said it was obvious to him after he took office that the Senate terms should run from April to April.
Epstein said the change would coordinate Senate elections with the elections of other organizations, such as the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation and University Senate Executive Committee.
It was difficult to work with other organizations because Senate terms didn't coincide, he said.
before the Senate in September to lengthen the previous Senate's term, but it had been viewed as a political move by the incumbent coalition and was not passed.
"September was too late to make the proposal. People were already starting to campaign for the next election," he said.
Epstein said a bill was brought
Eupstein said he might try to pass legislation to shorten the next term to six months.
