CWU Board of Trustees - July 2025

2) Removed old language from Section IV.B.1.a.iii. 3) Added new language to Section IV.B.1.a.iii to allow four NTT senators and outline eligibility. 4) Added language to Section IV.B.1.a.iii.a and IV.B.1.a.iii.b to outline what happens if a drop in WL makes the NTT faculty ineligible to serve and details which entity an NTT senator can serve for if they work in more than one college. 5) Added language to Section IV.B.2.b to clarify term appointments for NTT senators. Rationale for changes and/or additions: 2) As of October 15th, 2024, CEPS has 141 NTT faculty (73.55 FTE), CAH has 71 NTT (55.95 FTE), COTS has 58 NTT faculty (42.84 FTE), and CB has 21 NTT faculty (14.42 FTE). Additionally, there are NTT 20 faculty in Library and other areas (23.96 FTE) - not CAH, CB, CEPS, and COTS. 3) Removal of iii. CWU centers no longer have senators representing the individual centers. Departments and programs at the centers are represented by their respective department senators. NTT senators at the CWU centers will be represented by their respective CAH, CEPS, COTS and NTT senator-at-large. The NTT senator at large will be elected by those NTT faculty who are not in the CAH, CEPS, and COTS colleges. 4) Revision of iv. NTT senators will now be elected to represent CAH, CEPS, and COTS. An additional senator-at-large will be elected to represent divisions outside of CAH, CEPS, and COTS such as the Library and other areas. Senator representation is based on the NTT FTE for each area with CAH, CEPS, and COTS having the most NTT FTE, and other divisions lower have FTE. 5) Revision of terms of service. NTT senator terms of service will be for one year with maximum of three terms. Currently the Faculty Code does not identify a term limit for NTT senators. This term limit provides more opportunities for NTT faculty to serve as Faculty Senate. Proposed changes to Code: 1) Clerical changes to ensure clarity, accurate grammar, and spelling. Rationale for changes and/or additions: 1) It is a charge of the BFCC nearly every year to look through the code for any clerical matters that might require revision/updating.

We recommend the following motion:

The Board of Trustees of Central Washington University endorses the recommendation of the Faculty Senate and approves the changes to Faculty Code. Submitted: Approved for Submittal to the Board:

A. James Wohlpart President

Dania Cochran Secretary to the Board
