Please have any agenda items in to me by Monday, 8-26-24 at 5 pm so that I can put a draft together for the executive committee to approve in advance of the senate meeting.

If you would like to have an item added, please send the following information:

Please have any supporting materials submitted no later than 1 week before the meeting (8/28/24) so that it can be posted ahead of time for review by the senators.

A few other quick notes regarding the upcoming senate year:

  1.
The University had begun upgraded the YSU web servers over the summer.  I currently do not have access to update the senate pages currently, so be aware that information on the senate website is current as of May 2024.  I have reached out to the web team to check in on the status of the updates.  Prior to May, I did post the schedule for the upcoming senate meetings.  You can find the schedule at:

If you are new to the senate this year, I have manually added you to this senate email list so that you will receive important updates about the senate as they occur.  We are happy to have you onboard and look forward to seeing you throughout the year during senate meetings.  All of our senate meetings are held in DeBartolo Room 132 and start promptly at 4 pm (The schedule is in the link above).  All senate sessions are conducted IN-PERSON on campus.  Attendance at all senate sessions is required so that we can have sufficient quorum for conducting any senate business.  If you want to familiarize yourself with the senate, please visit our website at: https://ysu.edu/academic-senate.  Again, the information is not current for this upcoming academic year (It will be updated once I am able to regain access to make changes).

If you were a previous senator and are no longer serving, you may remove yourself from this email list if you desire to.  The link to unsubscribe can be found at:https://ysu.edu/academic-senate.  If you have problems, feel free to contact me and I can manually remove you.
