MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 17. 2012 Professor retention STATE LIMITS RSO POLITICALACTIVITY rate remains strong
BY RACHEL CROSS GVL STAFF WRITER
rofessor retention rate continues to be sig nificantly high among Grand Valley State University professors. Although Institutional PAnalysis does not keep statistics on faculty reten tion, an increase in tenured professors —as opposed to untenured associate or assistant professors —over the last 10 years jumped from 120 to 206. The num bers denote some consistency in faculty over the years, since an associate professor must teach at the university for six years before being promoted to a professor. John Godwin, associate vice presideht for aca demic affairs, said the provost office values all professors, whether they have been here for years or are just starting out. “We don ’t track pro fessor retention as a number because it’s a relatively small number,” Godwin said. “I do know ROBERT MATHEWS | GVL Open air, free speech: Evangalist, BrotherJed, preaches to a group of Grand Valley State University students on campus. about professors leaving because they were of MEGAN BRAXMAIER public body or a person acting on be or other public resources to make a fered a position at an GVL STAFF WRITER GODWIN half of a public body shall not attempt contribution or expenditure or pro other school because of to influence the outcome of an elec vide volunteer personal services (to a better research opportu To act in accordance with Michi tion held in the state. ” candidate or ballot proposal!... ” nities.” gan laws, registered student organi The law effected this summer ren Essentially, student organizations In addition, Godwin emphasized that professor re zations (RSO) receiving funds from ders RSOs limited in their political cannot provide materials, services or tention is hot a large issue at GVSU because most Grand Valley State University must activity during election season. facilities of ascertainable monetary profesflMJjrf sthy at the university and because GVSU walk a tight line this election season According to Section 57 of the value in support of or opposition to a is considered to 6e a teaching university where the to avoid financially backing a par Michigan Campaign Finance Act, “A candidate or ballot question. faculty is very much involved with meeting their ticular presidential candidate or using public body or a person acting for a “It’s not the promotion of political colleges ’ expectations and standards. university money to do so. public body shall not use or autho views [that is prohibited) because we Section 1 of Public Act 31 of 2012 rize the use of funds, personnel, of discuss all kinds of political views and Gary Stark, associate dean of the College of Lib states: “It is the policy of this state fice space, computer hardware or ideas, ” Dean of Students Bart Merkle eral Arts and Sciences, said typically the college that a public body shall maintain strict software, property, stationery, post spends more time recruiting professors than retain neutrality in each election and that a age, vehicles, equipment, supplies. ing them.
