Faculty Discuss Policy on Ethics

Acting Dean of Faculty Christina Sorum said on Wednesday she will form a committee to rewrite an introduction and procedures for sanction to proposed text for a statement on professional ethics.

After discussion on a statement adopted by AAUP in 1995, faculty tabled the vote pending the revision of some of the passages.

Faculty also discussed proposed text – also from AAUP policy – for a statement on consensual relations between faculty and staff. Faculty asked that Sorum gather examples of policies from other institutions.

In a report on admissions, Dan Lundquist, vice president for admissions and financial aid, said the College has made "slow but steady progress over the last decade" in improving the academic quality of the student body.
