1. Approval of Minutes
The minutes of the August 30, 2010 meeting of College Council were
approved as presented.
2. Sabbatical Reporting
The sabbatical reporting process was discussed by Council. A new form
required by the Office of the Provost requests documentation by the
department chair and departmental personnel committee on whether
adequate documentation of the sabbatical outcomes was provided in the
returning faculty member’s report. Following discussion on what defined
adequate documentation, the consensus was that the faculty member did
what they said they were going to do in the sabbatical request or reported
why their research was redirected.
The report is due 30 days from resumption of contract period following the
sabbatical leave.
3. Adjournment
The meeting adjourned at 1:57 p.m. The October 4, 2010 meeting is
canceled. The next scheduled meeting of College Council is October 25, 2010.
