Type of Appointment: Full Time, Probationary
Job Classification: Administrative Analyst/Specialist Exempt I
Anticipated Hiring Range: $5,274 - $5,380 per month
Work Schedule: Monday - Friday 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
THE DEPARTMENT:
The Academic Senate is the elected body that represents Unit 3 employees within the University as outlined in the Higher Education Employer-Employee Relations Act (HEERA) and the Bluebook (Principles and Policies: Papers of the Academic Senate the California State University, Volume 1, 1988.) HEERA provides for joint decision-making and embraces the concept of shared academic governance and academic senates as mechanisms for that shared governance. Since 1963, each California State University campus (including Cal Poly Pomona) has had an Academic Senate. The Academic Senate has primary responsibility for determining the educational policies of the University. The Academic Senate recommends adoption of new policies and procedures and reviews existing policies and procedures for possible change. The work of the Senate is accomplished through its elected representatives, appointed committee members, and the support staff. The Academic Senate Constitution (Policy 121 (previously Appendix 17) of the University Manual) establishes the scope of duties and responsibilities, and the Bylaws detail the operating procedures followed to conduct the business of the Academic Senate. To meet its obligations to serve as the voice of the faculty, the Academic Senate elected membership is composed of a total of 39 senators. 35 senators proportionally represent faculty constituencies from academic colleges, library, and related areas. There are also 2 CSU academic senators, 1 staff representative, and 1 student representative. The Senate elects a chair and a vice chair, each for a 1-year term, from among its senators. All senators are elected for a 3-year term, and the Constitution does not specify any term limits. The exception is the student senator, who is appointed by Associated Students, Inc. (usually the ASI President). There are seven standing committees: Executive Committee, Academic Affairs, Academic Programs, Budget, Elections and Procedures, Faculty Affairs, and General Education. The standing committees research and review policies in a consultative manner and submit their findings (reports) to the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee establishes the agenda for full Senate meetings, during which reports are discussed and voted on for adoption and recommendation to the University President.
