Faculty Senate meetings, customarily on first Wednesdays from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., are open to the public.

Faculty Senate Meetings and Forums

As the Senate carries out its scheduled business, guests — other faculty, students, staff, governing board members, administrators, and the general public — are welcome to speak and contribute to our conversations. Also open to the public are the Faculty Forums that we host to explore new issues, consider campus initiatives, and review ongoing Faculty Senate Committee tasks that will require Faculty Senate comment or action.

The essence of shared government, of which Faculty Senate is a partial expression, is the participation of all university community members in shaping our university’s future. We invite you to join us in open expression and reasoned debate, in an atmosphere of inclusive respect for persons and for differing ideas, as we work together for our common goals.

General Faculty Meetings

The General Faculty holds two meetings per academic year (Fall and Spring Semesters). The General Faculty consists of voting and non-voting members. Voting members include tenured and tenure-track faculty, faculty on leave, all full-time lecturers, full-time clinical faculty, full-time academic professional faculty, full-time research faculty, the President of the University of North Carolina, the Chancellor, the Provost, and all Vice Chancellors. Non-voting members include faculty emeriti, visiting faculty, writers-in-residence, artists-in-residence, part-time faculty, and adjunct faculty.

Other officials having responsibility for making and administering educational, research and student welfare policies may also be approved as members of the General Faculty.
