It advances UAF's distinctive mission as the nation's northernmost land, sea, and space grant university and international research center. It enhances UAF's role in advancing and disseminating knowledge through creative teaching, research, and public service with \par an emphasis on Alaska, the North and their diverse peoples. It is an integral part of broader planning efforts at UAF that include the university's academic plan, strategic plan, and accreditation self-study. \par \par The charge of the current master plan is to reestablish a common vision for the campus that is practical, achievable, and tied to a clear implementation schedule. It has been developed from the outset through an inclusive and participatory planning process that lays the groundwork for positive and tangible change in the campus environment. \par \par The plan builds on UAF's unique location in the far North and the special challenges and opportunities this presents. Coping with extreme cold, snow and ice, and darkness are obvious challenges. But the Fairbanks campus enjoys a beautiful location on "The Hill" that makes it prominent in the region and provides expansive vistas of the Tanana Valley and Alaska Range. The boreal forest surrounds the campus, providing a dramatic natural backdrop to the campus architecture and a valued setting for research facilities and trails. The brilliant light of summer contrasts dramatically with the subdued light of winter. Both the university and broader Fairbanks communities enjoy the small scale of the campus, the close proximity of bike and ski trails, and views of the distant Alaska Range from office and dormitory windows. \par \par The Fairbanks campus consists of nearly 2,250 acres of boreal forest, hillsides, lakes, and fields. It has a distinctive cultural history as Troth Yeddh, an Athabascan Indian meeting place. Today, people of Interior Alaska look to UAF as a cornerstone of community life in a myriad of ways: intellectual culture, athletics, fine arts, public service, research, and \par economic development. The campus shares with the Fairbanks community a distinctive Alaskan spirit of independence and self-reliance; that spirit opens doors for innovation and opportunity in all aspects of the university's work. This plan builds on that spirit and the university's distinctive geographic location in fulfilling the university's mission \par in the areas of teaching, research, and public service. \par \par }{\b Vision \par }{ \par The campus master plan strives to create a collegial environment that supports the institutional mission of UAF. It envisions an attractive, well-ordered, imageable, and pedestrian-centered campus that takes advantage of its unique northern location and the extraordinary resources of its natural and community setting. The plan creates an order for the campus to be reflected in all its interrelated parts--in the continuity of its landscape and architecture, the streamlining of vehicular ci rculation and parking, the enhancement of the campus' natural environment, and the concentration of development in core areas to create a more integrated and efficient campus. \par \par }{\b Purpose of the Master Plan \par }{ \par The campus master plan is the essential guide for growth and change of the physical environment on the Fairbanks campus. We expect it to be used by the Chancellor's Cabinet, the Master Planning Committee, and others in developing and evaluating capital funding requests, designing and constructing new facilities, and enhancing the existing built environment. \par \par The plan is a living document. It results from a dynamic process of addressing both existing and anticipated conditions, desires, programs, and space demands. The intent is to gather and reassess data regularly and to refine design criteria to accommodate change, provide permanence, and allow the university to evolve with grace. \par \par We anticipate that the campus master plan committee will review the plan at least annually, and that regular updates will be made every five years. It is expected that a full review of the master plan will be required in no more than ten years. Future decisions can, of course, vary from the direction of this plan. However, they should be made with careful evaluation so that the implications of variance can be fully understood regarding the vision that this master plan represents. \par \par }{\b Key goals \par }{ \par The following are the key goals of the campus master plan, designed to achieve the vision of a well-ordered, attractive, and imageable campus. Virtually all are interrelated; achieving goals in one area may be dependent on success in others. \par \par }\pard \li720\widctlpar\adjustright {\b Strengthen the collegial atmosphere of the built environment}{ through development within the acknowledged core areas of campus, design of building projects that strengthen program identities and adjacencies, and the establishment of complementary architectural and landscape features. \par \par }{\b Improve community access to the UAF campus}{ by building parking garages adjacent to key community-use facilities, enhancing existing parking and shuttle service, and improving wayfinding. \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { \par }\pard \li720\widctlpar\adjustright {\b Become a pedestrian-centered campus}{ by creating a safe, well-lit, and attractive pedestrian way along Yukon Drive, limiting parking and vehicular traffic in the interior of campus , and improving walkways and trails through enhanced design and lighting. \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { \par }\pard \fi720\widctlpar\adjustright {\b Simplify and improve vehicular circulation}{ by completing an \par }\pard \li720\widctlpar\adjustright {attractively-designed campus loop road encompassing West Ridge and Lower Campus, strengthening the campus shuttle system, and improving key intersections, entrances, and parking areas. \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { \par }\pard \li720\widctlpar\adjustright {\b Highlight the natural assets of the campus and sense of place}{ by bringing the boreal forest back into campus, protecting and enhancing key open space and landscaped areas, preserving viewsh eds, and making the forest accessible to the campus community for low-impact recreation. \par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright { \par }\pard

UAF Budget Process \par \par "Dr. Porter attended the meeting to exp ress concerns over the budget initiative process now underway throughout the University. He asked whether promises made by Statewide administrators for using increases in funds over the last two years were discussed through established faculty governance processes, either before or after the commitments were made. He reported that, based on discussions at a recent AAUP conference on faculty governance, major initiatives that impact academic curriculum, academic programs and the hiring of new academic fac u lty should be discussed through faculty governance processes. Maintaining and enhancing academic programs cannot be moved forward without timely and regular inputs for the academic professionals. Oversight of curriculum and the content of academic progra m s is at the core of matters reserved to faculty governance.

Discussion of modalities of committee work (mode of communication, delegation of tasks, goals for the year) \par \par 3. Review criteria for graduate scholastic/academic standing: \par Upon request by the Graduate School, the committee reviewed the criteria for graduate scholastic, academic and good standing. Given several iss ues or contradictions in the catalogue concerning the definition of these terms and current policy, Ed Bueler and Eric Rexstad took on the task of further researching the issue until the next meeting. \par \par 4. Course restrictions for graduate studies: \par The current policy on course restrictions for graduate studies was discussed, in particular as pertaining to the restriction of correspondence courses. It was concluded that due to the fuzzy definition of correspondence courses and recent developments in on-line delivery (mostly implemented at UAF) warrant a removal of this restriction. The chair will prepare a motion to the UAF Faculty Senate for discussion at the next meeting. \par \par 5. Identification of on-line courses in catalog: \par Joe Kan asked that the GAAC consider specific identification of online/distance-delivered courses in the catalog. A discussion among committee members resulted in numerous questions being raised concerning on-line courses and related issues. The consensus was that due to varying modes of on-line/classroom delivery, this issue may not require changes in policy but is deserving of further study. Norm Swazo recommended getting in touch with Mike Sfraga of statewide to learn more about status of on-line delivery and on-line catalog of courses. Chair will follow up on this. \par \par 6.

Old Business \par \par A. Trial course requests: \par BIOL 694 Endangered Species Management (rapporteur: Eric Rexstad): The course addresses issues not part of other current courses (focus on biological aspects of management). Dennis Stephens (Library Collection Representative) pointed out t hat the need for bibliographic materials for newly developed trial courses was often overlooked or glossed over (need to follow-up on). The committee unanimously decided to approve the trial course request. \par \par MIN 694 Application of Artificial Neural Networks (rapporteur: Chuen-Sen Lin): Concerns raised by the rapporteur (and solicited comments), include prerequisites for course, identifiable applications to mining engineering, potential overlap with courses offered in mathematics/computer science department, were addressed satisfactorily by the course proponent/instructor. The GAAC decided unanimously to approve this trial course request. \par \par B. Motion to refine graduate degree program course restrictions: Discussion of draft motion, with changes suggested regarding specific wording of catalogue alterations. The committee unanimously approved that the motion to be forwarded to the Senate. \par \par It was noted by Colin Read that currently transfer of graduate credits within the UA System is limited to \u8804\'b250% of total credits. The committee may want to follow up on this issue as it may not reflect current developments in the distance-delivery sector. \par \par C. Revision of graduate scholastic and academic standing criteria: Ed Bueler and Eric Rexstad presented summary findings. Contradictions in the computation of GPA's as well as the lack of an adequate definition (or specific reference) to scholastic standing suggest that the latter be removed from the catalog. Pending full verification (contact Eric Muehling, Public Re lations, regarding occurrence of terms in electronic version of catalog) the issue was deferred to the next meeting. \par \par D. Mike Sfraga of statewide had been contacted with regards to on-line delivery of courses within the UA System. After a summary of this information (including pointer to online.alaska.edu as the gateway to online courses), it was decided to invite him to the next GAAC meeting for a more in-depth presentation/discussion (representation of GAAC in relevant committee?). \par \par }{\ul II. New Business \par }{Research of online delivery issues revealed a number of areas that deserve further attention. For example, should the committee get involved with approval of courses that transition from classroom delivery to mixed or pure online delivery? While the GAAC is committed to avoid micromanagement, the question of quality control was raised. The latter is an issue outside of GAAC's purview, but it is unclear whether current means of quality control (student evaluations, etc.) as well as mechanisms for course approval adequately reflect changes in technology and course delivery. Further discussion of this and related issues during next meeting. \par \par \par }\pard \ri-260\widctlpar{\*\pn \pnlvlcont\ilvl0\ls0\pnrnot0\pndec }\adjustright {\page ATTACHMENT 104/11 \par }{\caps UAF Faculty Senate #104 \par OCTOBER 29, 2001 \par }{SUBMITTED BY FACULTY APPEALS & OVERSIGHT}{\caps \par }{ \par \par Faculty Appeals & Oversight Committee \par }\pard \widctlpar{\*\pn \pnlvlcont\ilvl0\ls0\pnrnot0\pndec }\adjustright {Minutes of the Meeting on October 10, 2001 \par \par \par Members present: Brian Himelbloom, Oscar Kawagley, Santanu Khataniar, Jerry Lipka, Victoria Moessner (chair), Julie Riley, Mitch Roth, Michael Schuldiner, Peter Stortz \par \par Absent: Gang Chen, Glenn Juday \par \par }\pard\plain \s29\widctlpar{\*\pn \pnlvlcont\ilvl0\ls0\pnrnot0\pndec }\adjustright \cgrid {\f7 Old Business: \par Mitch Roth will represent the Faculty Appeals and Oversight Committee on the committee to evaluate Dr. Kan.
