Possible areas of focus:
Corporatization and challenges to governance
Governance and assessment, account ability, and accreditation
Faculty participation in budgeting, financial exigency, or strategic planning
Principles, structures, and best practices of shared governance
The role of faculty in hiring, promotion, and tenure
Faculty governance, pedagogy, and curriculum
Governance and collective bargaining
The relationship of faculty governance to central administrations & legislatures
Motivating faculty to participate in shared governance
The role of contingent faculty
Departmental governance issues
Proposals of one to two pages should be sent by August 24 to: Lenore Beaky, AAUP Committee on College and University Governance, at lbeaky@hotmail.com. Proposals submitted before August 1 will receive notice of acceptance or rejection prior to the August 24 deadline. All accepted presenters must register for the conference.
In addition to presentations, the AAUP conference will once again include a series of training workshops for current and future governance leaders that will be spread out over the three days of the conference.
