Faculty Senate Meets

President Suzanne Hendrich gave her president’s report. Hendrich informed the Senate of the Wellness Committee’s presence in the Cardinal Room from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 24. The committee will take health and wellness concerns.

Hendrich asked Faculty Senate members to think about the meaning of serving as a faculty member.

“What it means to you [the faculty members] for ISU to be the most student-centered research-intensive university?” Hendrich said.

Hendrich encouraged academic freedom with a focus of what the faculty’s goals are to achieve their best potential as teachers, researchers and student-helpers.

Provost Jonathan Wickert’s reported the proposed budget for the next year. The governor has approved a 2.6 percent increase in general funding for appropriation. The freeze in tuition has aided in this increase in funding. Other items considered in the budget are a new building for teaching and research and a state-funded education program to focus on scholarships.
