The meeting was called to order at 2:35 p.m. by Chairperson David Sanders. 2. The minutes of the 20 February 2017 Senate meeting were approved as distributed. 3. The Agenda was accepted as distributed. 4. Professor Sanders presented the remarks of the Chairperson (see Appendix A). 5. President Daniels presented the remarks of the President (see Appendix B). 6. Question Time- No written questions had been received and no Senators asked questions from the Senate floor. 7. Professor Gerald Shively, Chair of the Steering Committee, presented the Résumé of Items under Consideration (ROI) by various standing committees (see Appendix C). The Chairs or designees of the Senate standing committees briefly described the current activities of their respective committees. One of the issues under consideration by the Educational Policy Committee (EPC) is the functioning of the Academic Organization Committee (AOC) that reports to the EPC. The Chair of the AOC, Professor Craig Dobbins, recently sent a letter to the EPC emphasizing the important functions relative to changes that impact organizational changes on all the Purdue University campuses (see Appendix D). 8. Professor Michael Hill, Vice-Chair of the Senate Nominating Committee, introduced Senate Document 16-06, Nominees for Senate Vice-Chair, for Action. The nominees for the position of Vice-Chair of the Senate were Professor Natalie Carroll and Professor Ralph Kaufmann. A motion was made and seconded to approve the document. No additional nominations were made from the Senate floor. Professors Carroll and Kaufmann spoke briefly to the assembled Senators. The vote was taken and Professor Carroll was selected as the next Vice-Chair of Senate with a term beginning on 1 June 2017. 9. Professor Natalie Carroll, Chair of the Senate Nominating Committee, introduced Senate Document 16-10, Nominating & Steering Committee Nominees, for Action. Professor Linda Prokopy made a motion to postpone the vote as not all the biographical sketches had been obtained. Her motion was seconded and passed with 39 votes in favor of postponing the vote on this document until the April Senate meeting and 16 votes in opposition to this motion. The Nominating Committee will seek the additional biographical sketches from those individuals who had not submitted one, to date. 10. Professor Carroll introduced, for Action, Senate Document 16-13, Faculty Committee Nominees. A motion was made to approve the document by Professor Carroll. Her motion was seconded. The motion to approve the document passed by unanimous voice vote. 11. Professor Carroll introduced Senate Document 16-14, Senate Standing Committee Nominees, for Action. A motion to approve was made and seconded. A subsidiary motion made and seconded to amend the document to remove part C, the Faculty Affairs Committee nominees. Following the discussion of the pros and cons of removing this section, the vote was taken. The motion to approve the amendment to delay the vote on the Faculty Affairs Committee nominees passed with 35 votes in favor and 19 in opposition. The delay will allow the Nominating Committee to obtain additional nominees for the FAC, especially female nominees. Following the approval of the amendment, the main motion was approved with 52 votes in favor and 1 in opposition. 12. Senate Document 16-07, Student Affairs Committee Resolution in Support of the Student- led Honor Pledge, was presented, for Action, by Professor Russell Jones, Chair of the Student Affairs Committee (SAC), and Board of Trustees student member Cameron Mann. A motion to approve the document was made and seconded. Professor Kip Williams asked: “Is it a single pledge done once or on all exams?” Trustee Mann responded: “This would be done on all exams on the first page and all students would sign the pledge, but no words of the pledge have specified, at this time.” Professor Steve Beaudoin noted at other institutions, if a student violates the honor code, they are dismissed. He asked: “Would that occur with this pledge?” Trustee Mann said that would not occur. Currently, they are working with Associate Dean of Students Jeff Stefancic on this matter. Dean Stefancic directs the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities (OSRR). Procedures are already in place to handle incidents of academic dishonesty through the OSRR. Professor Cheryl Cooky mentioned that the current focus is on academic integrity and is a narrow focus. She asked: “Were there any discussions on broader issues?” Trustee Mann noted that the working committee of students hoped that the other, broader attributes would be included even if they were not specifically mentioned. Professor Hill asked how the paperwork for the pledges would be handled. Professor Jones stated that paperwork is kept in an academic file. Trustee Mann suggested that a two-sentence pledge would not take up much space or require much paperwork. Professor Mark Thom expressed concern that if he was encouraged to do this by the Dean would make him look hypocritical because there are no specific sanctions associated with violations of the pledge. The lack of sanctions or punishments for violations will make a professor look powerless or impotent. The inherent authority of the professor will be undermined. Trustee Mann said that the pledge does not eliminate any of the existing processes and procedures for handling cases through the OSRR. An honor code already exists that is utilized by the OSRR when dealing with cases involving academic integrity issues. This resolution would put the pledge in front of the students. Professor Laurel Weldon suggested that the point of the matter is that the students are doing something on their honor and that implementation and punishment are antithetical to the resolution. Trustee Mann agreed that the proposed pledge is not about the punishment aspect. Professor Williams mentioned the newest research on public commitment to principles is most likely to result in consistency when it is more pertinent and predictive. Anything more abstract becomes less predictive. Professor Christopher Clifton suggested that the pledge will be irrelevant for courses that do not utilize examinations for assessment of the students.

  • I. This Term Is Borrowed from the Title of Betty Friedan's Book, First
    Notes POST·WAR CONSERVATISM AND THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE I. This term is borrowed from the title of Betty Friedan's book, first published in 1963, in order not to confuse the post-Second World War ideology of women's role and place with such nineteenth-century terms as 'woman's sphere'. Although this volume owes to Freidan's book far more than its title, it does not necessarily agree with either its emphasis or its solutions. 2.

  • Purdue University 普渡大學
    Purdue University 普渡大學 Overview Purdue University's West Lafayette, Indiana, campus is the main campus in the Purdue University system, which encompasses four other campuses throughout the state. Nearly 20 percent of students are affiliated with Greek life, and Purdue offers a wide range of activities and organizations. Performance groups include the "All American" Marching Band, four jazz bands and two symphony orchestras. The Boilermakers, Purdue’s athletic teams, compete in the Division I Big Ten Conference and are well known for their dominant men’s and women’s basketball teams. The Boilermaker Special, Purdue’s official mascot, is a railroad locomotive cared for and maintained by the student-run Purdue Reamer Club. Although no students are required to live in university housing, about one-third of undergraduates live on campus. Purdue is made up of 12 schools and colleges, many of which serve both undergraduate and graduate students. Professional and graduate programs include the well-ranked College of Engineering, Krannert School of Management, College of Education and College of Pharmacy. Purdue’s esteemed School of Aeronautics and Astronautics within the College of Engineering has acquired the nickname "Cradle of Astronauts." One popular university tradition: many students mark the beginning and end of their time at Purdue by running through either of the campus fountains. Notable alumni include legendary college basketball coach and player John Wooden, popcorn entrepreneur Orville Redenbacher and the first man to walk on the moon, Neil Armstrong. Academic Life The student-faculty ratio at Purdue University--West Lafayette is 12:1, and the school has 39.6 percent of its classes with fewer than 20 students.
