I. <\/strong>Purpose<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Â鶹ÊÓƵ (MTSU or University) committees create a framework for shared governance by advising administrators, executing appeals processes, and fulfilling mandates to the University. Committees are composed of faculty, administrators, staff, and students who invest in the well-being of the University through this service. These committees provide expertise and advice to the University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This policy governs the work of the various committees. Additional details are noted in the individual committee description. Committee activity is defined by the guidelines in this policy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

II. <\/strong>Establishment of Committee Structure<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following provisions establish the committee structure and appointment to committees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Establishment. Only the President will have the authority to establish, continue, or abolish University committees. Vice Presidents, the Faculty Senate, or the Student Government Association may recommend establishing, continuing, or abolishing University committees. The Faculty Senate will review all committees to consider their viability and effectiveness every five (5) years, and make recommendations to the President regarding charge, membership, and reports.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Appointment. The President will make all University committee appointments. Unless otherwise specifically directed by law or University policy, Faculty Senate will coordinate with other offices when specified to nominate faculty members to the President. The President will receive faculty nominations before the beginning of the Fall semester and student nominations soon after the beginning of the Fall semester. The President will respect the nomination process and give nominations due weight and consideration. Racial, ethnic, and gender diversity will be considered when making and reviewing nominations and appointments to committees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Nomination of Faculty Members. All nominations for service on a committee are provided to the President by the Faculty Senate.\n
      \n
    1. Depending on the structure and nature of the committee, faculty nominees will be chosen either by college or by cohort as designated in the committee\u2019s description. For University committee purposes, the colleges are defined by University structure, but Library and University College will share their positions with the College of Media and Entertainment. For University committee positions that are designated by cohort, the four (4) cohorts will consist of (1) the College of Basic and Applied Sciences; (2) the College of Behavioral and Health Sciences, College of Education, University College, and the Library; (3) the Jones College of Business and the College of Media and Entertainment; and (4) the College of Liberal Arts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Nominations of faculty to advisory committees and called committees will be made by the Faculty Senate selected from the pool of interested faculty.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Nominations of faculty to Administrative Committees, Special Purpose Committees, and Ad Hoc Committees will be made by the Faculty Senate in consultation with relevant administrators (Deans, Department Chairs\/School Directors, or Vice Presidents) when specified.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. On committees with more than one (1) representative from a college, these representatives will be from different departments, if possible. (Faculty Senate Resolution, September 4, 1985.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Committee Classification. University committees, with the exception of a special class of called committees, will fall under one (1) of the following five (5) classifications: advisory, administrative, special purpose, ad hoc, and called. \n
        \n
      1. Advisory committees are standing committees that enable shared governance by providing the various administrative offices a formal method for receiving guidance from faculty, staff, and students.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Administrative committees are standing committees that fill operational roles by providing systematic appeals processes, facilitating effectiveness of University operations, and complying with recognized accreditation and best practices in the academic community.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Special purpose committees are standing committees that can be either advisory or operational. In general, special purpose committees require at least partial membership based upon position held on campus.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Ad hoc committees meet needs that are often persistent but do not require regular meetings. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. Called committees are established by the President to address a short-term issue. A called committee must fulfill its charge within two (2) years and be dissolved by the President. If the need for the called committee continues, consideration will be given to changing the nature of the committee to one (1) of the standard classifications. Members will be informed of the dissolution or of the change in classification in writing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      6. Student Eligibility and Membership. Committees designed to deal exclusively with faculty matters will not include student members. All other committees will have at least two (2) student members. Undergraduate student representatives will be full-time students (enrolled for twelve [12] or more hours) and will have a grade point average of 2.25 or above at the time of the appointment. Graduate student representatives may be full-time or part-time students (SGA Resolution of March 23, 1994) and will have a grade point average of 3.25 or above at the time of appointment. Student members will serve one (1)-year terms with eligibility for one (1)-time re-appointment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      7. Faculty Eligibility and Membership. Faculty committee membership will be selected from tenured or tenure-track faculty who have been employed full time at MTSU for at least two (2) years prior to beginning committee services, at least one (1) year of which must have been in a tenure-track position. No faculty member will be eligible to serve as a faculty representative on any University committee of any type if their work is defined to be as more than forty percent (40%) administrative as determined by workload documentation. Except where noted in committee guidelines, faculty appointments will be for two (2) years with eligibility for two (2) additional consecutive re-appointments. After a total of three (3) consecutive appointments to the same committee, faculty may not be re-appointed to that committee for at least two (2) years. Exceptions to eligibility requirements must be approved by the Faculty Senate Steering Committee.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      8. Eligibility Questions. The Faculty Senate will make the final determination on all questions regarding eligibility of faculty for committee service. In instances in which promotable track faculty members have special expertise relevant to a particular committee, the Faculty Senate will make a recommendation to the President regarding the advisability of the particular appointment. No Department Chairs\/School Directors, Deans, Associate Deans, or other persons serving in a substantive administrative office will be appointed as faculty representative on a University committee. No faculty or student member of a committee will serve on more than two (2) standing committees concurrently.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      9. Appointment Duration. Except as may be set forth with regard to any particular committee, faculty appointments become effective on the day of the Fall Faculty Meeting and end at the closing of the appropriate Summer term. All student appointments become effective at the date of their notification and end at the close of that academic year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      10. Membership Replacement. If a member of a committee fails to complete an appointment term, a replacement will be appointed as soon as possible to complete the unexpired term. The regular appointment calendar and rotation will not be changed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        III. <\/strong>General Committee Structure and Responsibilities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        All committees, including called committees, will follow the standard procedures and practices outlined below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Committee Officers. At the final meeting of the spring semester, each committee will elect a chairperson and a secretary for the following academic year. These officers will assume their responsibilities for twelve (12) months. If, in the last year of an appointment, an individual is elected as chair, then that individual\u2019s appointment to the committee will be extended for a year. No individual shall have their officer appointment extended more than once on any single committee. The chairperson of every committee will be a tenured or tenure-track faculty member with no more than 40% administrative workload unless otherwise specified within this policy. In unusual circumstances, the President may appoint the chairperson of a called committee; the committee will then elect its secretary. Committees will not have co-chairpersons except in unusual circumstances.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Chairperson Responsibilities. The chairperson will call and schedule meetings, set the agenda, and submit committee reports based upon the charge of the committee.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Ex Officio Members and Consultants. The President will be an ex officio member of all University committees except the Faculty Appeals Committee. Some committees by virtue of their nature and function may need the services of additional non-voting ex officio members and\/or consultants, who may send representatives to committee meetings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Committee Guidelines and Charges. Upon the creation of a University committee, the President or designee will provide the committee charge. The committee members will then establish procedures to execute the official charge and, if necessary, elaborate and refine it. Committees will undertake a regular self-review to make recommendations regarding continuing committee existence, membership, and procedures. Charge and review information for each committee can be found in this policy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        5. Committee Meetings. All committees will meet as often as necessary to accomplish their charge, but at least once each academic year. General parliamentary rules will be observed in conducting the business of the committee except as may be modified by policy or procedure adopted by the committee.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        6. Committee Reporting. All committees will report to the President, the Provost, or a designated Vice President. Each administrator who has decision-making responsibilities for committee recommendations will respond to all such recommendations and reports within two (2) weeks of receipt. Each year, a summary report of committee work will be provided to the members of the committee, the Faculty Senate President, the Student Government Association President, and the appropriate Vice President as established in the reporting structure of the committee description. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
        7. Committee Records. Committees will keep records of meetings, decisions, reports or other relevant materials. Committees dealing with appeals or other personal information will follow laws and guidelines regarding handling such information. Committee chairpersons or a designee will maintain these records.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
