And we resolve
Resolution of the University Faculty Senate on the
Public Higher Education Empowerment and Innovation Act (excerpted)
Resolution:
Resolved that the University Faculty Senate endorses the principles of the proposed Public
Higher Education Empowerment and Innovation Act, and requests that the Chancellor and
her staff address six outstanding issues of special concern:
1. The need to define Special Tuition Rate more precisely and provide a cap;
2. The need to specify the inclusion of faculty governance in the campus decision making
‐
processes that will produce recommendations for both tuition rates and/or public‐
private partnerships or any associated land leases;
3. The need to ensure that the oversight of public private partnerships require adherence
‐
to all relevant environmental laws and to ‘best environmental practices;’
4. The need to ensure that all rights and benefits of collective bargaining in the current
labor contracts be extended to all future negotiated labor contracts; and,
5. The need for a commitment on the part of New York State to a future level of funding
that would constitute a continuing “maintenance of effort.”
6. The need to apply evenly the benefits of PHEEIA across all sectors of SUNY.
