Re:

Faculty Senate Resolution #01-02-5

 

I cannot support the resolution as characterized: "Endorsement of Recommendation to Oppose Priority Registration for Athletes." I have no position on priority registration for athletes at this time, nor do I believe that the Ad Hoc Committee reached a conclusion on this matter. Rather, their report recommends further study, including an open forum and focus groups related to priority scheduling for a variety of student cohorts. I support those recommendations
