\par \tab \tab Director of Space Planning and Management
\par FROM: \tab Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Alaska Native 
\par \tab \tab Education (CACNE)
\par \tab \tab   Clara Johnson, Chair.
\par DATE: \tab March 25, 2002
\par Re:     \tab Position statement on the UAF 2001 Draft Master Plan
\par \tab \tab by the Chancellor\rquote s Advisory Committee on Alaska Native 
\par \tab \tab Education (CACNE).
\par 
\par The Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Alaska Native Education (CACNE) takes this opportunity to voice its position
 on the UAF 2001 Draft Master Plan.  It is our experience that once an architectural/ landscape master plan is made, it is virtually impossible to make appropriate and logical changes at a later date.  While we recognize the importance of the location of 
b
uildings, placement of parking areas, pedestrian access, vehicle traffic flow and other physical attributes that minimize the potential chaos inherent in future growth, CACNE takes a strong stand in keeping the area between the Natural Science Building an
d the UAF Museum as an open space.  Further that this open space be dedicated to culturally relevant symbols representing Alaska\rquote 
s First Nations: the Athabascans, Tlingit, Haida, Tsimshian, Eyak, Inupiaq, Yupiaq/Cupiaq,Yupiget, Alutiiq, Sugpiaq and Unangan/
Unangus, the original and true owners of all the land in Alaska.  It is common knowledge that the UAF campus stands on Tanana Athabascan land.  Each Alaska Native group would have the opportunity to determine what form the representation should be.  This 
collaborative planning effort would also help to recognize the contribution of Alaska's First Nations to the State of Alaska, the U.S., and to the International community.
\par 
\par In addition to our suggestion about the open space next to the museum, we also propo
se that UAF consider adding Native Alaskan artwork and symbols to as many buildings and outdoor spaces on campus as possible.  Widespread use of Alaska Native artwork and cultural symbols on the UAF campus would provide several benefits.  It would create 
a
 distinctive look to the campus that would appeal to and attract visitors.  It would promote a sense of identity and pride among students, staff, and faculty.  It would clearly root the university in its cultural, geographic, and historic place.  It would
 present a welcoming face to Native students and demonstrate the university\rquote 
s commitment to collaborating with Native communities and their corporations.  Should the university leadership commit to follow this suggestion, works of art and Alaska Native symb
ols can be obtained through a combination of loans from individual artists, gifts by artists and Native corporations and communities, and purchases by UAF.  The Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Native Education (CACNE) would be willing to spearhead acqu
isition of appropriate cultural materials and works of art if given the mandate to do so.
\par 
\par Presently, the only visible exterior symbols of Alaska's First Nations on the UAF campus take the form of two small alabaster Inupiat statues near the Woods Center, t
he Emily Ticasuk Brown Flame located near Lola Lilly Commons, a polar bear sculpture near the Patty Gym, two totems poles from Southeast Alaska at the UA Museum, and one totem pole between the Woods Center and the Chapman Building (several of these symbol
s
 were donated to UAF by the artists).  One suggestion that we would like to present is for UAF to erect in the center of the circle of flags a pole with an eagle feather on top of it as described by Chief Peter John, Chief Peter John was also given an hon
orary doctorate degree by UAF in 1994 (see the attached article on Troth Yeddh\u225\'87
).  It is our understanding that the present landscape action steps include the use of the open area for walking trails in the summer and winter cross-country skiing.  Our sugges
tion would strengthen the present plan with the inclusion of the appropriate cultural symbols.  The proposed Alaska Native symbols could enhance the area as an additional visitor's location, be it summer or winter, to educate people from all over the worl
d
 that this university recognizes and respects its original peoples.  There are excellent examples of landscape structures in such places as University of British Columbia with its Long House, the Saami House at the University of Tromso in Norway, and nume
rous other locations.
\par 
\par The members of CACNE represent a good cross section of First Nations People of Alaska and local organizations such as Fairbanks Native Association, Tanana Chiefs Conference (TCC), Doyon Foundation, TCC Tribal College and UAF administr
ation, faculty, staff and students.  If approved, it is our plan to communicate this position to the larger statewide Alaska Native community for additional support and input from such organizations as the Alaska Federation of Natives, the various Alaska 
N
ative Regional and village profit and nonprofit corporations, and the Alaska Inter-tribal Council.  The various First Nations of Alaska should be given the opportunity for input and have the power to decide for themselves how they would be represented sym
bolically at the proposed open space.  Therefore, we are grateful for this opportunity to advance a proposal from Alaska's First Nations People to the master plan.
\par 
\par The dedication of the said open space and the installation of indigenous symbols would compl
iment the present programs and organizations on this university:  the Alaska Native Business Leaders organization, the American Indian Science and Engineering Society, Alaska Native Socialworkers Association, Inu-Yupiaq Dancers, Rural Student Services, th
e
 Alaska Native Honorary doctoral program (Wisdom Keepers honoring celebration), College of Rural Alaska, the hiring of an Alaska Native First Nations Executive Dean (Bernice Joseph, Athabascan) of the College of Rural Alaska (the first of in the history o
f
 this campus), Interior-Aleutian Campus (the director is Clara Johnson, Athabascan), the appointment of Captain Wayne Don (Cupiaq/Yupiaq) to the Military Science Department (the first Alaska Native assistant professor of Military Science), MacLean House, 
t
he Harper Building dedicated to Flora Jane Harper (Athabascan, the first Alaska Native graduate from the ÌÀÄ·ÊÓƵ campus), the dedication of the Brooks Building to house all Alaska Native programs, People Awakening Project, TUMA Thea
t
re, Rural Alaska Honors Institute, UA Center for Rural Educator Preparation Partnerships, the Alaska Native and Rural Development Department, Upward Bound program, UAF Rural Human Services, the Alaska Native Knowledge Network, the Alaska Native Language C
e
nter, the development of culturally relevant curricula (ethno-math and star navigation project), Alaska Native Studies Department, core course requirement ANS 202X (Aesthetic Appreciation of Alaska Native Performance), the Elders In Residence program, the
 Festival of Native Arts (a totally student-driven cultural program that has become an institution on this campus), and the Chancellor's Advisory Committee of Alaska Native Education (CACNE).
\par 
\par There was been great interest expressed by most Alaska Native Fi
rst Nations people that have been contacted on this issue.  This is an opportunity to demonstrate a positive collaborative planning project that is inclusive of all parties concerned.  The dedicated open space replicates the indigenous connection to and r
e
spect for its lands and all peoples gathered here at the UAF campus.  The symbols created on this open space would reflect the best of our cultures and values promoting good will, diversity, and excellence.  The open space with its multi-use concept would
 forever symbolize the best in the ÌÀÄ·ÊÓƵ.  This gesture of collaboration would strengthen the tie between this university and the Alaska Native First Nations.
\par 
\par Addendum:  Troth Yeddh in the UAF catalog page 7.
\par 
\par Troth Yeddh.
\par The land
 now occupied by the ÌÀÄ·ÊÓƵ campus was called Troth Yeddh ("wild potato") by the Tanana Athabascans. Chief Peter John, the present traditional Chief of Tanana Chiefs Conference of Interior Alaska said, "Our people used to come to t
h
is hill to pick Troth.  They would paddle up the creek, Troth Yeddh No, and camp by the Lake Troth Yeddh Mena.  Troth Yeddh was important, a meeting place.  The grandfathers used to come to talk and give advice to one another about what they were going to
 
do.  When they learned this place would be used for a school, the university, they came here one last time, to decide what they should do.  They decided that the school would be good and would carry on a very similar traditional use of this hill (a place 
w
here good thinking and working together would happen).  They placed an eagle feather on a pole.  This was to let all people know that the Dena would no longer be using the ridge for a meeting place or to pick wild potatoes.  They were also giving a blessi
n
g so their grandchildren would be part of the new school."  Chief Peter John described himself a "Bedzeyh te xwt'ana, Caribou clan.  My wife is Taneedzo gheltseel na, middle clan.  I am proud of it.  I am an Indian.  What does it mean to put an eagle feat
h
er with the United States flag?  The eagle feather is connected with the clan.  It is a symbol of us.  We are part of this new Nation.  People from all over the world come to the university to go to school and teach.  We have something in common.  Somethi
ng all American people can share in.  Be proud of it.  Make it all the way, not just part way."

\par }{Senate organization:
\par McRoy presented the issue which concerns the organization of the Faculty Senate and the order of doing business at its meetings.  Specifically, the perception is that most of the collegial exchange over policy and other business of the Senate o
ccurs in the Administrative Committee meeting rather than on the floor of the Senate. Changes to this procedure will require a revision of the Senate Bylaws (Sec.3, Art V) and possibly a new method of doing business so as to more fully involve senators in
 discussions and issues at meetings. FA will have an action item to the Senate by the May meeting.

replacement of a draft policy submitted to the Senate by Norm Swazo concerning classified research at UAF is the main activity of FA this semester. The objective is to establish a policy for UAF to monitor and review classified and proprietary research pr
\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 o\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 
posals and contracts. To date FA has met with Ted DeLaca, Vice Provost for Research at UAF and with Julie Norris, Director of Sponsored Programs at MIT. In addition many faculty members continue to send opinions on this to FA. The open forum with Ms. Norr
\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 i\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 s on 26 March provided additional information and comment. Where are we now?
\par 
\par \hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 Base on new information, largely provided by Ms. Norris, FA sees the need to treat proprietary research separately from classified government research. At this time we will be co\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 
ncerned with classified research although FA recognizes that much of any policy developed for this research category may be applicable to proprietary research.  At MIT all classified research is confined to a single, off-campus, government sponsored labor
\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 a\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 
tory. The main campus of MIT operates under the solid academic principle that research results cannot be delayed by a sponsor for more than 30 days and furthermore that a sponsor may only comment on results but has no authority to approve or censor. FA co
\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 n\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 
siders that such a policy is certainly the academic high ground but requires the status of an institution such as MIT. UAF is not there yet and requires a policy that meets its obligations to the public when considering classified research projects. Ms. N
\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 o\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 
rris also outlined the extensive facilities controls that are required by government regulation if classified research is carried out at an institution. FA finds that such needs and associated costs would indeed be a serious concern for UAF if classified 
\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 r\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 esearch were to occur on campus. While progress is being made, FA Committee members do not yet agree on a direction that the policy should take. The FA Committee agrees that the question is not 
\ldblquote should UAF do classified research\rdblquote  but what are the policies\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7  \hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 
and procedures for entering into contracts and grants that require such classification.  Roger Smith presented a revised policy for consideration by the Committee. This new draft policy and further review of that presented by Norm Swazo will be the agenda
\hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7  \hich\af7\dbch\af4\loch\f7 for the next meeting (4 April) in an effort to forward a policy to the Senate by its May meeting.

\par }{\i (1) Residency requirements for Masters and Ph. D. students
\par }{Following up on earlier discussions, it was decided to draft a motion that eliminates the residency requirement for Master's Programs (ÌÀÄ·ÊÓƵ Catalog, p. 41), harmonizing Master's with Ph. 
D. programs and removing a potential hurdle for distance-delivery or on-line programs.
\par 
\par }{\i (2) Proposal for major degree and course changes, Atmospheric Science
\par }{The present and former head of the Atmospheric Sciences Program (L. Duffy, C. Cahill) presented an
 update on the current status of the program (Cahill submitted original proposals in fall of 2000, before and since the program has undergone various changes that are currently not reflected in the catalog, creating problems with respect to student recrui
ting; apart from other new faculty members, K. Sassen will take over as coordinator of program within the next month) that and provided more detailed information on the set of proposals before the GAAC. 
\par 
\par The high degree of stacked courses (all of the requi
red courses are stacked) and intertwining of courses with required courses for the undergraduate Applied Physics Program (Concentration in Atmospheric Physics) were discussed in more detail. While the rationale for introducing stacked courses was recogniz
e
d by the committee and proponents, more general concerns were voiced regarding stacking of natural science courses (discouragement of either graduate or undergraduate students, maintaining of high academic standard at graduate level, sufficient and explic
i
t distinctions between expectations and deliverables for graduate and undergraduate portion, lack of resources or interest in courses etc.). Based on these discussions and the specific constraints of both the 400 and the 600-level portion of some courses 
b
eing required for a graduate and undergraduate program, the proponents were advised to revisit the issue of stacking, possibly by unstacking some courses (leaving the option of offering 400-level courses as special topic courses). The option of enrolling 
i
n a 600-level course as an undergraduate was currently discouraged based on graduate school tuition policy, and the Dean of the Graduate School offered to address this issue and potentially remove such financial barriers. The proponents will also provide 
a
 full set of syllabi and identify the different grading criteria and expectations for the two levels of the stacked courses. Furthermore, a memo routed through the Physics and Chemistry Depts. acknowledging compatibility of decisions made with respect to 
Applied Physics Undergraduate Program and other course requirements will be provided.
\par 
\par }{\i (3) Miscellaneous
\par }{The GAAC unanimously approved application for a new course BIOL 694 - Scientific Writing, Editing, and Reviewing, following up on a detailed response provided by Terry Bowyer with regards to questions posed by the committee.
\par 
\par A motion implementing a resource commitment form (RCF) drafted with input from the committee will be drafted once the final version of the form has been run by the Provost's council.
\par 
\par The status of a set of applications for 500-level courses by TVC in Applied Business was discussed. The GAAC chair will contact the course proponent and the School of Management to work out discrepancies (with a list of specific questions/suggestions by 
committee) before further consideration of the proposal.

\par }{A memo from the Chair of the Physics Dept., Brenton Watkins, was forwarded to the committee. Larry Duffy and Cathy Cahill provided an update on the ongoing revisions to their program proposals. Pending resolution of open questions regarding (un)st
acking of courses, the committee will evaluate the revised program in full at the next meeting. It was recognized that the present situation (i.e., languishing since fall 2000), with incomplete or obsolete catalog listings and other pending changes was si
gnificantly impacting students currently enrolled and was furthermore hindering recruitment of students and constructive development of a program and the faculty associated with it. 
\par

\par }{\i (2) Technology-enhanced education working group
\par }{The suggestion by the Curricular Affairs Committee to establish a Joint Technology Enhanced Education Working Group was received favoura
bly. It was noted, however, that the number of members of this Working Group may not be realistic. Possibly, a small task force (one member from each committee) that would identify and research key items to bring to the attention of both committees might 
be a good starting point. 
\par 
\par }{\i (3) Miscellaneous
\par }{A proposal forwarded by Christy Long and Tony Gasbarro (Corporate Extension) on a Master's Program in Rural Development with a designated Peace Corps Assignment component was discussed. Based on a first reading,
 the proposal appears to be very well prepared and addresses important needs while playing well on the strengths of the university. In its current form, the proposal is fully compliant with the current policy regarding Master's Programs. As the Peace Corp
s
 Assignment is integrated into the degree in the form of a Project/Thesis, the credits awarded for this component of the degree do not require any changes to the program itself. Hence, while the GAAC is happy to offer advice on the proposal, it does not r
e
quire formal approval in its present form. If the program were to include changes in the UAF catalog, advertising the opportunity as part of the Rural Development (and other) programs, these would have to be submitted in the form of a program change reque
st. This step might actually be advisable after an initial trial period to modify and streamline the program. The changes could also be implemented in combination with the introduction of a concentration centered around Peace Corps assignments.

\par Present:  Glenn Juday, Gang Chen, Sanatanu Khataniar, Mitch Roth, Julie Riley, and Jerry Lipka
\par 
\par We continued work on the draft proposal about censure of administrators to be submitted to the Senate.
\par 
\par 1.      The review (in the broadest sense) of the performance of administrators is an important complementary activity to the review of faculty.  Both groups contribute to the advancement of the Univers
ity when they carry out their respective responsibilities effectively, and either can seriously interfere with the proper functioning of the University as a whole when they perform ineffectively.
\par 
\par 2.      The various peer reviews of faculty, including the 
mentoring of untenured faculty, promotion, and tenure review, and post-tenure review as well as continuing, in-depth contact with students equip UAF faculty with a unique and comprehensive understanding of the general health of the University and its actu
al progress in meeting its stated goals.
\par 
\par 3.      In a system of shared governance, the administrative function includes a critical catalytic role which, when performed well, results in the accomplishments of academic units surpassing the sum of individual faculty effort.
\par 
\par 4.      UAF faculty are in a unique position to offer insights on the effectiveness of academic administrators of particular and campus-wide programs at UAF.  They can readily see whether their efforts to teach, conduct research, and provi
de professional services are enhanced, not affected, or compromised by academic administrators.
\par 
\par 5.      Faculty input into periodic reviews of academic administrators is provided for, although the system for accomplishing reviews is relatively new and lacking in a record of experience upon which to make judgments.
\par 
\par 6.      As responsible members of the academic community, UAF faculty have an inherent responsibility, when circumstances indicate that academic programs and the health of the University are bei
ng impacted negatively by the behavior and decisions of State-wide administrators and their immediate staffs, the UAF chancellor and provost and their immediate staffs, and deans and directors and their immediate staffs to initiate the passage of a vote o
f no-confidence or censure.
\par 
\par 7.      When, in the considered opinion of the majority of the Faculty Senate, an administrative decision or series of decisions are seriously harmful to the health and future of the University, the Senate may pass a vote of no-
confidence or censure of the administrator or administrators making and carrying out such harmful decisions.

Minutes were amended to read: In general, we endorsed

\par Minutes were accepted as amended.
\par 
\par II.  Old business
\par A.  Discussion continued regarding tenure and promotion and the trend for UAF faculty to apply for tenure and promotion earlie
r than in the past.  During the discussion, it was noted that officially there is nothing called early tenure and that when a faculty member meets the criteria and can show sustainability, he/she should be considered as any other faculty member applying f
or tenure.  However, promotion and tenure should not be based on a span of productivity only, it should be considered whether this productivity fits with the unit mission and the university mission. 
\par 
\par Another issue is unit criteria.  Presently, only nine un
its have criteria accepted by the Faculty Senate.  It was pointed out that if unit criteria did a better job of clearly defining the goals for each unit, interpretation/ judgement would be less arbitrary for faculty committees and administration.  
\par 
\par Annual
 reviews and 4th year reviews were discussed in relation to promotion and tenure.  Satisfactory annual reviews do not necessarily mean promotion and tenure.  The 4th year review was designed for less experienced faculty members and should be used positive
ly for individual professional development. 
\par 
\par It was decided to request a meeting with the Provost to further clarify the issues. 
\par
