A motion was made and seconded, and the vote to approve was unanimous. He then introduced Dr. Monica Baloga, Associate Vice President for Institutional Effectiveness, who is also Dean of Graduate and International Programs. Dr. Baloga recounted attending the last Presidents Retreat and speaking then of the urgency of being prepared for SACS (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools) accreditation. She said she thought there should be better communication on this matter across campus. The Compliance Certificate is due to that agency September 10th, 2014. A peer review of the report by an off-site committee will take place Novem-ber 4th through 7th, 2014. Soon after, FIT will receive the Off-site Commit-tee Report which indicates whether the institution is either Compliant, Partially Compliant, or Non-compliant with each of the principles. An on-site review by a different set of peer reviewers is scheduled for March 3rd through 5th, 2015. In the interim, 鶹ýӳ will be allow-ed to address any principles marked as Partially Compliant or Non-com-pliant by submitting a Focused Report in early January, 2015. At that time, a new Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) will also be submitted to SACS for the on-site review. Before leaving the campus on March 5th, the On-site Committee will submit a final report of the principles they were required to review during their visit to the campus and to several off-campus instructional locations. The final decision by the SACS Board of Trustees will be announced at the SACS Annual Conference in early December, 2015. The first draft of the Compliance Certificate is due to our SACS Vice President liaison, Dr. Marcy Stoll, on June 12, 2014. Her feedback will be provided during a video-conference session on June 26th. We will have two months to make necessary corrections and additions to the report before final submission. The QEP draft is to be submitted in mid-Novem-ber 2014; the final submission is scheduled for January 2015. Dr. Baloga spoke about our role as faculty during the on-site visit of SACS; she said there are dos and donts in speaking with SACS person-nel. 1) Dont engage in mind-numbing descriptive narratives to a SACS visitor. 2) Dont defend the idea of a data-free campus. 3) Dont supply reams of raw data with no accompanying analysis; as well, data should be employed for actual improvement. 4) Do have a Strategic Plan or pro-cess. 5) Dont think that 鶹ýӳ is so special that we have no need for benchmarks. 6) Dont be the equivalent of a member of the Flat Earth Society by denying that assessment is necessary, and 7) Dont blame the faculty-driven Steering Committee for problems. In addition to these seven deadly sins, faculty members should not take the attitude that accreditation is not my responsibility. Nor should they show disregard for policy. Also, its not a good idea to dis-cuss personal dissatisfactions, such as pay conflicts with ones unit head. Dr. Baloga went on to say that there are two things that impact the faculty. One is that Academic Program Assessment should be a full process with many faculty members participating; the three learning outcome areas that are assessed involve communication, critical thinking, and discipline-specific knowledge skills. The second thing that impacts us, she said, is the QEP; faculty will need to be more involved in the plan-ning process. Senator Brenner asked if his putting together a minor program in his field called for SACS approval; Dr. Baloga said it did not. Sen. Marcinkowski is leading the effort, within implementing the QEP, of bringing about internationalization. He noted a first draft of the QEP is due November 14, 2014, and a final draft is due in January 2015. Over the next few months, a QEP Advisory Committee (QEPAC) will be formed to guide the development of this QEP Plan, and in Fall 2015, a new Implementation Committee (QEPIC) will be formed. Senators should be aware that over the past three years, a Task Force appointed by Pres. Catanese, the ICC, has been developing and implementing a number of internationalization initiatives across campus. The QEP intends to work closely with the ICC. In light of all of this, Dr. Marcinkowski invited senators to discuss the new QEP (deemed QEP-2) with their units. As part of these unit discussions he asked senators to inform faculty mem-bers that he is seeking four to six faculty (and staff) members who have internationalization interests to work with him as core members of the QEPACs research team during this initial phase of QEP-2 planning. Interested faculty members were encouraged to check with their unit heads, and then inform Dr. Marcinkowski of their interest and availability. He concluded his remarks by pointing out that while QEP-2 does not need to be university-wide (as with QEP-1), it can be phased in over time and does need to have university-wide impact. Pres. Arrasmith thanked Dr. Baloga and Sen. Marcinkowski for their presentations, and moved to the Presidents Report. He said hed had lunch with Pres. Catanese and Chief Operation Officer McCay recently, and reported that they see the university as running well. It appears that there is a global shortage of pilots, so the incoming of Turkish and Chinese flight students is a good thing. The Capital Campaign is to start up again, leaving its silent phase. Dr. Arrasmith closed his report by suggesting that the Senate pick a few pertinent topics on which to make progress. Also, he said he would like to see our Faculty Senate Web page improved. Committee Reports There were no committee reports, and no Old Business. New Business Sen. Baarmand moved that the Senate form a task force to address the parking problem. The motion was seconded, and the vote to have this was unanimous. Secretary Shearer, who will head up the task force, said he would arrange a meeting of members of the Welfare Committee and Dan Parnell, chairman of the Parking and Safety Subcommittee to the President's Staff Advisory Committee; also, Chief Graham of Campus Security will be invited. Anyone interested should contact Dr. Shearer at  HYPERLINK "mailto:rshearer@fit.edu" rshearer@fit.edu. Sen. Marcinkowski stated that we should take this mat-ter to our constituents, and solicit the views of staff as well. Sen. Cook pointed out the problem with often blocked traffic in front of the Clemente Center, and suggested that making the pattern there one-way might help. Perhaps Mr. Jurgens, head of Athletics, could arrange to have the buses load up behind the center. By unanimous assent, the meeting was adjourned at 4:40 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Bob Shearer, Secretary     PAGE  PAGE 2  "'()*+=HPRUXY[°vnf[nPE:/hmUhPtOJQJhmUh> OJQJhmUhyOJQJhmUhMOJQJhmUh:POJQJh SOJQJh7OJQJhrg*hMCJOJQJ\aJhOhMCJOJQJ\aJh=fCJOJQJ\aJhMCJOJQJ\aJ"h Sh SCJH*OJQJ\aJh SCJOJQJ\aJh?c hM5CJOJQJaJhOhM5CJOJQJaJh8hM5CJOJQJaJ)*+> ?
