    UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST OFFICE OF THE FACULTY SENATE Presiding Officer W. Brian O’Connor called the 706th Regular Meeting of the Faculty Senate to order on April 21, 2011 at 3:30 p.m. in Herter Hall, Room 227. A. ADDRESS BY JOYCE HATCH, VICE CHANCELLOR FOR ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCE, JUANITA HOLLER, ASSOCIATE VICE CHANCELLOR FOR FACILITIES AND CAMPUS SERVICES AND DENNIS SWINFORD, DIRECTOR OF CAMPUS PLANNING “REVIEW OF CAMPUS FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT AND MASTER PLAN UPDATE” (QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSION TO FOLLOW) (See attached) Senator Amilcar Shabazz noted that Vice Chancellor Hatch presented a very broad picture of the campus’s plans, but wanted more detailed information on how these advancements will affect individual programs and asked if and how faculty members will be involved. Joyce Hatch, Vice Chancellor for Administration and Finance, stated that the administration should be constantly reaching out to impacted departments and faculty. Deans, associate deans, and department heads were very involved—and supplied much valuable information—in the larger picture studies conducted by the University. Concerning the smaller projects, that often remain off the radar, Vice Chancellor Hatch agreed with Senator Shabazz that there should be more discussions with departments. Right now, the University is attempting to depopulate Hills so it can be demolished. There has been much discussion and conflict with those currently residing there. It is a tricky issue. Senator Shabazz asked Vice Chancellor Hatch if the currently established square footage allotments for departments remained relevant, and how the amount of space granted to each department is determined during moves. Vice Chancellor Hatch stated that there are standards that apply to faculty members, lecturers, teaching assistants and office support staff as well as research space.
