In the last week of April, SACUA passed the following resolution and sent the resolution electronically to the entire University Senate faculty:

RESOLUTION

 (FACULTY EVALUATION OF ADMINISTRATORS)

 April 26, 2004

In light of new information and material facts made known since the March 15, 2004 University Senate meeting that are at variance with representations made to the Senate in support of the action taken at its meeting and that separately and combined amount to a compelling change in circumstances, SACUA hereby:

1. Rescinds its April 12, 2004 endorsement of a not-acted-upon, proposed Senate Assembly motion to create the Administration Evaluation Committee (AEC);

2. Affirms its October 27, 2003 charge to Senate Assembly's Academic Affairs Advisory Committee (AAAC) to evaluate the merits and feasibility of a faculty evaluation of administrators process and, if feasible, to recommend further action by SACUA and Senate Assembly;

3. Recommends that the University Senate and Senate Assembly revisit and reconsider, in the early fall of 2004, the March 15 action of the Senate involving faculty evaluation of administrators in its entirety; and

4. Resolves to publicize the contents of this motion to the University Senate faculty through appropriate means.
