This year's group Shared Governance Award does to the Task Force to Enhance Learning and Teaching committees.missouri.edu/tfelt/, which worked hard on holistic systems for inclusive & effective teaching by engaging the campus community w/ listening sessions, updates & feedback requests.

This year's individual Shared Governance Award goes to Dr. @ryanjthomas83 from @mujschool, whose efforts "brought significant progress in codifying and implementing standards" & who "approaches this work [of shared governance] as a critically important part of his job" Congrats!

Each year, FC honors those who demonstrate exceptional commitment to principles to shared governance on our campus. We will virtually present this year’s winners at the General Faculty Meeting Wednesday March 24th! facultycouncil.missouri.edu/shared-governa…

Starting now, please join us to let us know your thoughts on expanding FC representation for NTTs! @MUExtension

Specifically, we propose to eliminate the distinction between T/TT and NTT faculty for the apportionment of seats on Faculty Council. Zoom link for the forum below & will be posted FC page. umsystem.zoom.us/meeting/regist…

Should NTTs be given the same representation as TT faculty? Faculty Council will host a Faculty Forum Wednesday, March 10th, from 3:30pm – 5:00pm to announce a reorganization of Faculty Council to better balance representation by various types of ranked Faculty.
