FACULTY SENATE MINUTES
October 16, 1967
The meeting ,,,as called to order by President Collins at 3:35 P.M.
in the Assembly Hall of the Campus Center.
The minutes of the meeting
of September 25 were approved.
Vice Chairman Knotts reported for the Executive Committee on three
matters.
(1)
The Executive Committee considered a letter fromD·r. Israel
Kugler, President of the Empi.re State Federation of Teachers, in which he
requested permi.ssion to visit our campus and to inform us of his organiza ...
tion.
He indicated that his group is interested in becoming our collective
bargaining agent under the Taylor Law.
It \IJas agreed to inform Dr. Kugler
that a visit at this time would be premature, since our faculty has not
yet decided '"hether or not it wishes to have a negotiating agent.
(2)
The Executive Committee felt that any problems pertaining to the
academic calendar should be considered by the Undergraduate Academic
Council and the Graduate Academic Council, and that recomme~ded changes
should then be brought before the Senate. Class scheduling must be
handled in an administrative office, but the alternatives should be
presented to the Senate. It was announced that Dean Mathews has scheduled
a meeting on Calendar and Scheduling Problems for Monday, October 30, from
3 to 5 in the Assembly Hall. This is open to all faculty.
(3)
The
Senate originally gave the Council on Educational Policies the responsi-
bility for preparing the Campus Academic Plan. It now arr$ars that the
Council can assist the President in preparing the plan, acting in an
advisory capacity only, Chancellor Gould stated, in a recent communica-
tion, that 11The Campus Plan will be the President's plan." Hence, a
redefinition of the role of the Educational Policies Council is necessary.
President Collins indicated that he hopes a discussion of the Campus Plan
\.rill be carried on by both the Council and Faculty Senate,
/
Vice President Fiser presented the report of the Graduate Academic
Council. In addition to organi~ing ita committees, the Council approved
the awarding of doctoral degrees to two candidates in the Graduate
School of Public Affairs, and made slight revisions in the doctoral
program in History,
Dr. Fiser announced that the Undergraduate Academic
Council has no report at this time, and that the Council on Promotions
and Continuing Appo1.ntments has not yet met,
Each Senator had received a memorandum from Vice President Droessler
on "A Rationale for On-Campus Organized Research." It was agreed that no
wider dissemination of this document will be made until the Senate has
had an opportunity to discuss it with Dr. Droessler at a future meeting.
- 2 -
Vice President TharnBpresented the report of the Student Affairs
Council. At its last meeting the Council reviewed its committees and
approved the appointment of some new members to these committees.
The
ad hoc committee on graduate student needs has been working with graduate
students on the formation of a graduate student government.
In response
to a question, Dr. Thorne stated that our own Universi,ty Council has
established a policy with respect to students who are arrested.
Upon
the request of the student, the University will help him to obtain a
lawyer and will assist him in other ways.
The University Council has
approved a statement of University position in dealing with students
who are emotionally disturbed, alcoholics, addicted to narcotics, etc,
Dr. Thorne indicated that the first concern of the University is for the
individual and his problem. If the student has a problem which does not
infringe upon the rights and welfare of other students, he may be allowed
to remain on c~pus. If his problem presents a hazard to others, he ~~~
be dismissed. ·~~:t9;bem-s.-a~e-er'e'tl.ght-t-o-"&1:1e-s,:t.t.@n.t~ the Committee on ·--···- · -
Student Conduct.
This body makes a recommendation to Dr. Thorne, who
then recommends a course of action to the President. It was pointed out
that Faculty Senate does not have any responsibility for dealing with
matters of student conduct, although critical issues could be brought
before the Senate for discussion.
Dr. Sivers reported for the Council on Faculty Affairs.
The Council
had been requested by Dr, Thorne to consider chartering organizations
made up of both faculty and students, but it felt that an organization
which includes students should be student chartered, since it would be
operating primarily for the benefit of students. It was announced that
on Sunday afternoon, November 19, there will be campus tours for faculty
families and friends, follow~d by refreshments in the Campus Center.
Dr. Tibbetts reported activities of the University Senate.
He said
that a tax-sheltered annuity plan has been worked out by SUNTwith TIAA.
A representative will come to the campus to explain the plan, which will
take effect on January 1, 1968.
Dr. Tibbetts indicated that he needed an expression of faculty
feeling concerning the implications of the Taylor Bill.
He pointed out
the fact that the Civil Service Employees Association wishes'to repre-
sent all state employees in collective negot.lations, and that Faculty
Association of State University of New York has already petitioned to be
the bargaining agent for the faculty.

If the faculty wishes to have a negotiating agent, it will have the
opportunity to vote for the agency it wishes to represent it. There is
the poss:lbili ty that the Un:l.versi ty Senate could become the negotiating
body, in spite of the fact that the Senate is not an independent agency,
does not collect dues~ and obtains its financ1al support from the body
with whom it would be negot1.ating. Dr. Tibbetts requested a show of
hands to the question of whether we favor collect1ve negotiations. Five
voted in favor of this. Most of the other senators present preferred a
cooperat1.ve, rather than an adversary, relationsh1p.
The second question
asked was: If there is to be an adversary relationship, would you ask
the University Senate to request to be the negotiating agent? A large
majority responded in the affirmative.
The meeting adjou~ned at 5:40 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,

ReQort of Activi.ties of the Council on Facu,lty Affairs
1. Virgil Zimmermann, chairman of the Collection Committee$ reported that
appeals will appear with the Oct. 11 pay checks. Volunteers have been lined
up for the follow-up.
2. Treasurer Charles Graber's financial report was accepted. The balance in
Retirement, Flowers, and Social Funds is $1,451.72.
3. Esther Cook reported that ~1r. Cooney of Food Service was waiting for
equipment before a la carte food service in the Patroon Room.
The estimate
of time until evening food service was six weeks~ or mid-November.
4.
The group discussed a request from Vice President Thorne that we charter
organizations made up of both faculty and students. This activity does not
clearly fit any of the functions designated for the Council on Faculty
Affairs by the Faculty By-Laws.
\,,,e felt that the problem should be referred
to the Faculty Senate for a "jurisdiction" decision. The informal opinion
of the group is that groups made up of both students and faculty are
primarily student groups and operate for the benefit of students~ and
therefore should be student chartered.
5. The Faculty Handbook is expected by Thanksgiving~ Frances Colby t"eported.

The following reports were given:
I.
~~~ll~i~~ P.~~mit]ee - Professor Knotts.
There were no questions
concerning the written report.
At its meeting of November 9, the Execut~ve
Committee decided to ask Edwin Reilly to inform Faculty Senate about the
resources of the Computing Center.
He is Director of the Center and
Chairman of the Computer Science Department.
II.
.Q.om'Qu~ Center - Professor Reilly. Since the middle of 1966 the
University has had a computer, which is temporarily housed in the Air Force
Reserve Center.
Computer time has been used approximately as follows:
50% for administrative data processing, 40% by students taking computer
courses, 10% for research purposes.
(A summary sheet, distributed to each
senator, outlined the services available to a faculty member~ their cost~
and how to use them.)
Orientation compu·ter courses for faculty have been
given twice. If a faculty member desires computer time for a research
project, he should have a fairly well formulated concept of how the computer
can help him with his problem.
A programmer at the Center can then help him
to translate his problem into computer language.
However, a person will find
it extremely useful to be able to do his own programming, because he can then
easily modify his program as his project develops.
One faculty research study
now being made involves a computer analysis of Medieval English dialects.
Although the computer is quite busy during the week~ there is usually computer
time available on Saturday or Sunday.
III.
~ucat~9U~! ~9*ici§~ C9ynpil - President Collins.
At its last
meeting the Council discussed the general organizational structure of State
University at Albany with respect to its ability to handle the ever-expanding
program of the institution. The decision was made to bring in a consultant,
who would examine our structure and make recommendations.
Various consultants
were suggested and discussed, but no one was chosen.
The proposed Center of
Science was pres~nted to the Council by Dr. McLaren, and was approved by the
Council.
The Science Center will proceed to develop as rapidly as funds permit.
IV.
Undergraduate Academic Counc~- Vice President Fiser.
The Council
discussed the proposal submitted by the Admissions Committee for admitting
some underprivileged freshmen.
No action was taken.
V.
~~Academic Q.£uncil - Dean Flinton.
The Council appointed the
following persons to ntembership on the Ad Hoc Committee on Advanced Graduate
Programs:
M, Berger, Chairman, K, Birr, A. Nossin, 0. Poland, R. Schmidt,
M. Smiley.
New graduate programs proposed by the School of Criminal Justice
and by the School of Education are being processed.
At its last meeting the Council approved a proposed'Ph. D. program sub-
mitted by the Department of :tviathematics.
(A copy of this program was distributed
to each senator at the beginning of the Senate meeting.) Professor Vincent
Cowling, Chairman of the Mathematics Department, and Professor Malcolm Smiley,
Vice Chairman, were present at the Senate meeting, at the invitation of
Dr. Flinton. Dr. Flinton moved that the Ph.D. program in }~thematics be
approved by Faculty Senate.
The mo·tion was seconded.
- 3 -
The following information was given by Professor Cowling, in response to
questions from several senators: (1) The first paragraph of the proposal ends
with the statement that 11The program is designed to lead selected young men
and women toward reseatch careers in universities, industry, and government. 11
Although not explicitly stated, it is to be understood that the program will
also prepare students for teaching careers.
(2) The areas of study that will
be available initially are Functional Analysis, Complex Analysis, Algebra,
Topology, and Probability.
(3) It is possible for a student to earn a Ph. D.
degree without having obtained a master's degree along the way.
(4) On page 5
of the proposal, outlines appear of sample programs which can be taken by
students with various undergraduate backgrounds.
A student with a 11very strong
underg1·aduate preparation" is one who has probably had a year each of advanced
calculus (i.e., a first course in real variable theory), abstract algebra, and
topology.
(5) The doctoral students will be supported financially by means of
teaching assistantships and fellowships. It is the intention to obtain some
Government-supported grants that will enable the student to devote a minimum
of time to teaching.
A teaching assistant could very well take five years to
complete his program.
A teaching assistant will most likely be in charge of
two recitation sections of a course that is taught by a senior staff member
in one of the large lecture halls.
(6) The faculty listed in the proposal are
those who are currently active in research in mathematics.
Those not listed
will be expected to devote their time exclusively to undergraduate teaching.
(7) The library is currently subscribing to 136 mathematics journals. There
is no problem in obtaining back runs of these journals (unless it be a financial
one), and it is anticipated that by September of 1968 the library will house a
journal collection adequa·te for the initial needs of the program.
(8) The
proposed Ph. D. program is very similar to programs found at many of the univer-
sities throughout the United States.
It was pointed out that the proposed graduate courses seem to overlap some
of the courses listed in our present catalogues, and that there seem to be some
discrepancies in course numbering.
Dean Flinton made it clear that approval of
the program does not carry with it approval of the proposed courses.
Approval
of specific courses and course numbers must come from the Curriculum Committee,
The motion to approve the Ph. D. program in Mathematics passed unanimously.

VI.
Q.qu11cil_ gn. Promotions §lld Qo!'\tinuing Ao"Qoip.tme~ - Dr. Fiser.
The Council recently prepared and distributed a document to each senator entitled
"Guidelines Concerning Promotions in Rank and Continuing Appointments." There
will be a full discussion of the guidelines at the December meeting of Faculty
Senate.
In the meantime, senators are free to distribute copies to their
colleagues and to solicit expressions of opinion.
Questions posed by various
senators elicited the following answers by Dr. Fiser; (1) Section IV-D,
Paragraph one, makes the assumption that the department chairman will have
informed the faculty member before November 15 about action taken with respect
to promoting him.
(2) Under the new Trustees Policies an assistant professor
can have his years of service as an instructor count when he is being considered
for tenure at the assistant professor rank. Section III, Paragraph two, takes
into consideration the possibility that a department may wish to give tenure
to an assistant professor before it is ready to recommend him for an associate
- 4-
professorship.
(3) Section IV-A-1 states that recommendations for continuing
appointments should be transmitted to the dean of the college by February 1.
If a faculty member is to be let go because he is not being given a continuing
appointment~ he should be so notified by May 1, one year in advance of the
termination of his appointment.
(4) No specific provisions have been made for
the Council to review negative actions taken by a department with respect to
promoting or continuing a faculty member.
(The point was made that such a
review would serve to make the Council aware of the standards that are being
applied within the various departments.) It is hoped that the schools will
consider cases systematically~ using the guidelines. It is also assumed that
each school will establish its own committee on promotions and tenure.
(5) Section I-B, Criterion 2, is not meant to imply that a teacher of graduate
students is necessarily a better teacher than a teacher of undergraduates.
(6) If Criterion 7, Section I-B, is employed, the results should be known only
by the appropriate faculty committees and the faculty member evaluated, and
certainly should not be disseminated to the student body.
VII.
§tud~~ Af~~ Council ~ Vice President Thorne.
The report of the
November meeting of the Council was sent to each senator prior to the Senate
meeting.
Item 4 was concerned with the problem of handling deviant sexual
behavior on the part of students.
The Council recommended that such matters
s~ould be referred to the judicial committee of the Living Area Affairs
Commission of Student Government.
President Collins indicated that it will be
necessary for the University to adopt a policy to guide the professional
Student Affairs staff when it is confronted with problems of this nature.
The matter of immediate concern to Faculty Senate is contained in Item 5
of the Council report. President Collins had requested that the Council draft
a statement that would give the faculty position on student demonstrations.
He indicated that he had also asked Student Government to draft a statement
concerning student protests, and that he will use these two documents as a
basis for recommendations that he will bring to the University Council at its
December meeting.
The legal responsibility for student conduct lies in the
University Council, and that body, employing the guidelines set up by the
faculty and the student body, will formulate University policy in dealing with
student demonstrators.
Dr. Thorne moved that Faculty Senate adopt, as the
official faculty position, the "Position on Student Protest and Demonstrations,"
as given in Item 5 of the Student Affairs Council report. The motion was
seconded.
Several faculty wanted to hear student opinion be~ore adopting a position.
The President reminded the faculty that the students cannot speak for the
faculty, nor can the faculty speak for the students, but that he will amalgamate
both points of view into the recommendations he must soon present to the
University Council.
Some senators felt that the students should be made aware
of the fact that the faculty is in sympathy with the students' reasons for
demonstrating against the war in Vietnam. It was pointed out that the United
States is now in a position that makes rational discourse inoperative and
futile, and that students, in their moral outrage, seek other means of
expression. Professor Mark Berger said that the greatest wealcness of the
- 5 -
position, as drafted, is that it does not consider the particular circumstances
surrounding specific acts.
lie suggested that the faculty statement be prefaced
by a preamble which acknowledges the anguished situation in which the faculty
finds itself with respect to its present role in dealing with student protests.
Another faculty member did not want the faculty statement to sound apologetic.
After a protracted discussion of possible deletions and additions, it was
moved and seconded that the proposed statement be adopted, with the following
modifications: The faculty position on student protests and demonstrations
shall be called a "Statement on Student Protests and Demonstrations$" the
words "harassment or intimidation" are to be deleted from the end of the second
paragraph; the word "physically!' is to be added to the fourth paragraph,
preceding the word
11 interfere 11 ~ and the secretary of the Senate is to draft
a preamble along ·the lines suggested by Professor Berger.
The motion carried,
with a vote of 31 in favor of the motion, and 14. against it.
Professor Riedel wished the Faculty Senate to go on record as showing its
concern for students and expressing its confidence in them by making a further
statement, thus supplementing the personal interest that the President is able
to express at his weekly press conference with the students. Accordingly,
Professor Riedel moved that the President inform the students of the faculty
reaction to student demonstrations, and that he invite the students to formu-
late and send to the Senate a statement on academic freedom and responsibility.
The motion passed, with but three votes in the negative.
VIII.
V~Jversitu §§nat~. Professor Joseph Norton, speaking for University
Senator Tibbetts, said that the Senate minutes will be out soon.
He annourtced
that the Senate, at its last meeting, passed a resolution which requests that
librarians be given faculty status.
IX.
Qounc!l gn f~£~ljw[ Affairj[ - Professor Sivers.
(Report of the
November meeting was sent to the faculty last week.) It was announced that
the Social Committee has arranged a special faculty flight to the Bahamas
for over the spring vacation.
The meeting adjourned at 5:40 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
O'IJ~Ak~
Violet Larney
Secretary, Faculty Senate

State Univ·ersity of. New York a:t Albany
STATEMENT ON STUDENT PROTESTS ANil DEMONSTRATIONS
On November 20, 1967, the Faculty Senate approved a proposal on student
protests and demonstrations.
Hopefully~ the statement vTill establish a policy
:f.or the p:r-otoction of freedom and dissent in university life and give clear
ev:Ldonce ·to all members of ·the Un:i:versi ty, particularly students, that their
:~~ighJctl as citizens and scholars are fully respected.
Unfortunately, policy
sto:comonts on freedom must be general, and genera.lit:i.es obscure~ 1;he e:x::i.r3ten-
t.ial qual:i.t:i.es of particular moments.
The Faculty Senate therefore prefaces
its proposal with th:i.s reference to the particular dilemma at this time:
vJe unashamedly admit our sense of anguish~ an anguish which
comes from tho recognition tha'l:, no sirnple response can describe
"0he complex nature of tho nation's present :l.nvolvement in vrar
and racial oonfl:i.c·t 3 an anguj.sh wh:l.ch comef> from the recognition
t,hat patr:i.ot:l.sm and morality are. not n~)CC:3Ssa:r.:i.ly equivalent
terms; an anguish that comes from the recognition that ultimately
:1:1; vJiJ.l bo the young people~ our studontr3 ~ vrho vrill fight and die
j_n this ambiguous war.
At this moment :i.n history it is at least
understandable why r:rt.udents
have turned 1io radical forms of
Pl"oter3t.
Students have, vdthin the law, the rlght o:f. freedom of expresGlon and advocacy.
Tho Univo:r.s:1.t.y seolw to ~'lnco11:r.age and preserve freedom of expression and
i.nquiry vri thin the academic community.
S·t;uclonts are free to man:i.fest protest and d:i.Gsent or support and assent in a
pGacofuJ., orderly manner that do<=:;o not seek to restrain tho freedom of
m~p.1·eor.don or movement of o·the:NJ,
All membors of the University have the
rtgh't of' free.accesn to the ~ctivitie:> of tho institution without phyG:i.cal

Report of Meeting
November 13, 1967
Ed 321
Members Present: cathryne Sivers, Ted Standing, Charles Graber, Charles Stokes,
Robert Burgess, Virgil Zimmerman, Hugh Farley.
Ted Standing moved that the minutes of the last meeting be accepted with
the correction that faculty dues should be $~.~0 instead of $2.50.
Charles Graber reported ·to the council on our current financial standing.
The balance on hand as of November 10, 1967 was $2,744.71. Ted Standing moved
that the $573.57 savings account be maintained as contingency and emergency
fund.
The motion passed and the Treasurer's report was accepted.
Virgil Zimmerman reported for the collection committee that a total of
nearly $14,000 was collected for the Joint Appeal. A follow~up will be printed
in the Campus Courier encouraging faculty members who ha.ve not contributed
to make their donations.
In order to encourage the faculty to pay their dues, a notice in Courier
will be printed. A notice will be included in the material sent out by
the faculty social board and individuals at the departm~ntal level will be
urging them.
'
Ted Standing reported on the parking situation. He conferred with
Mr. Buckhoff and it was reported that there was plenty of parking and that the
only problem was that of distance.
No change is anticipated in parking facilities.
A recommendation was made that a parking facility for short term parking,
.for example, unloading, be investigated.
The question of collecting parking fines from faculty members should be
referred to the senate.
The parking situation will be placed on the agenda of the President's
information meeting in January.
Bob Burgess reported on fringe benefits and presented an analysis of the
questionnaire on fringe benefits.
A group will meet and see about forming a Federal Credit Union.
A further discussion of fringe benefits will be presented a.t the next
meeting.
- 2 -
Cathryne Sivers reported that the Social Committee has formed a committee
headed by Leila Moore that will attempt to get a group together for a
charter flight to Puerta Rico over the spring recess. This will probably be
arranged with American Airlines.
The next meeting will be Monday, December ll, 1967 in Ed. 321 at 3:00 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,

FACULTY SENATE MINUTES
December lS, 1967
The meeting was called to order by Pfesident Collins at 3:35 P.M. in the
Assembly Hall of Campus Center.
The minutes of the meeting of November ?0
were approved as distributed.
President Collins informed the Senators that he presented to the University
Council the statements of both the Faculty Senate and Central Council on ~u~ni
~
~ad ~emQgp,trations. The University Council studied these, and then
issued the following statement:
11The University is committed to encourage and preserve freedom of
inquiry and freedom of expression throughout the academic community.
Students, like other members of the University, are free within the
law to manifest protest and dissent, or support and assent ;I in a
peaceful, orderly manner that does not seek to restrain the freedom
of expression, inquiry, or movement of others. All members of the
University have the right of free access to the activities of the
institution without physical interference, harassment, or intimida-
tion.
Each member of the University is obligated to conduct himself lawfully,
maturely and responsibly, and shares the responsibility of maintaining
standards of behavior essential to the orderly conduct of the
University's function as an educational institution.
Those who disrupt the institution's orderly conduct of its affairs,
or who obstruct or who physically interfere with the rights of others
will be subject to disciplinary action, which may include suspension
or dismissal from the University."
Members of the Educ~tion~l ~~~i~~ Qpvn9i! reported on the proposed
Campus Academic Plan. Vice President Fiser discussed the first aspect: the
numerical bases for planning. Enrollment figures are now being projected to
1975. Graduate enrollment, as estimated by the various departments~ agreed
very closely with the estimate made by the Educational Policies Council, but
the departmental estimate of undergraduate enrollment was 160 per cent of the
Council estimate. Within the next two weeks the University figures will be
compared with national estimates.
The total student enrollment for which our University should plan has
been approved by the Central Administration. It was announced that the
student population should be divided into 60% undergraduates and 40% graduates;
at the undergraduate level, 40% should be in the lower division, and 60% in
the upper division. However, it appears that these percentages are not
realistic.
Two reasons why large numbers of transfer students are not applying
are: (l) All the four-year colleges are now taking junior transfer students
into their liberal arts programs.
(2) The pool of freshmen from which we
- 2 -
eventually draw transfers is not increasing by a substantial amount.
Last year
we admitted 1L~50 freshmen and 450 ·transfers.
To attain the 40/60 ratio, we
would have to become increasingly selective at the freshman level and drop
standards considerably at the junior level, Also to be noted is the fact that
about one~half of the transfers enter the School of Business; hence there will
probably be a drop in applications to that school when the other colleges
offer business programs.
Also attracting some of our potential transfers will
be the proposed college in the HerkimermUtica-Rome area, which plans to offer
junior, senior, and first-year graduate level work.
We plan to accept 1700 freshmen and 450 transfers for the fall semester)
1968. Applications already received by students applying to the Graduate
School are up 55% over last year at the master's level~ and up 60% at the
doctoral level. It is estimated that by 1975 we shall have ?0,300 students,
including 6700 part-time students. This would amount to 15,600 full-time
equivalents. It is expected that 53% of the students will be undergraduates,
and 47%, graduates.
The second aspect of the Academic Plan to be presented was that of programs
and procedures of instruction. Dr. Fiser indicated that the special Committee
on the Undergraduate Program has been working since the first of the year, and
has met several times with a larger group, oa.lled the Studen·t ... Faculty Seminar.
On January 14 the Seminar will meet to discuss the draft now being prepared by
the Committee.
Then the Committee will send its final report to the Under-
graduate Academic Council. With this preface, Dr. Fiser then asked Dean
Perlmutter, chairman of the special Committee, to ·:t:•eport on the work of the
Committee thus far.
Dean Perlmutter first discussed the general philosophical considerations
that guided the Committee.
The Committee felt that the student wants a larger
voice in formulating the program he shall follow~ and he wants the program to
be relevant to the problems of our present-day society. The Committee decided
that the student desires a total University experience 1 and so it voted against
breaking the University up into a series of small colleges. The University
should be structured so that it is more flexible than the traditional university.
At the undergraduate level it would be a student~centered University. The
Committee agreed not to seek a single "right" method, but to formulate several
workable alternatives, which would:
(1) Retain the best of what has worked
in the past.
(2) Provide for new patterns.
(3) Allow for experimentation
and innovation.
The specific alternatives that the Committee envisages are the following:
(1) University College, retained with its present structure.
(2) A Three-year Master's Program 1 commencing with the junior year.·
(3) A Departmental Program, in which the student's major department has
the authority to specify and regulate his program during his entire
four years of undergraduate work.
- 3 -
(4) .An Experimental College, wHh its own faculty. This College might
work with the student in the summer during his last three years of
secondary school~ and continue with him during his first two years
of college. The student would leave the experimental college when he
enters his junior year.
(5) A Two~year General College for freshmen and sophomores, with an
experienced faculty, the members of whom would be chosen primarily
because of their interest in teaching. This General College would be
self-governing, and a faculty member in it would owe his primary
allegiance to the College, rather than to a department of the University.
It is hoped that the entire University program could be structured in a
manner that would make it possible for a student to switch from one alternative
to another.
No time table has been established for implementing any of these
innovations, but the fall of 1969 would certainly be the earliest possible
date. President Collins mentioned tha·t another new program to be considered
is one for the disadvantaged.
The third and final aspect of the Campus Academic Plan is that of the
composition and structure of the University.
President Collins noted that
at this stage in the planning he is not in a position to say which new pro-
fessional schools we should establish.
We must await the outcome of other
discussions, and decisions by the Board of Trustees. Dr. Collins indicated
that during the coming year outside experts will be called in to examine our
general administrative and academic structure. It is hoped that their reoommen-
da'l:.ions will assist us in planning wisely for the future.
The report of the ~aduate Academic Cougcil was made by Dean Flinton. The
Senators had received copies of the proposed new programs in the School of
Criminal Justice. It was moved and seconded that these proposed M. A. and
Ph. D. programs in Criminal Justice be approved.
After highlights of the
programs were reviewed by Dr. Flinton~ and a few questions were answered by
Dean Myren, the programs were approved unanimously.
Representing the .QQ_Uf..l.~·dl_ QU Promotions and Qontinumg, A:e12oi~m~, Dr. Fiser
moved the adoption of the "Guidelines Concerning Promotions in Rank and
Continuing Appointments. 11
The mo·tion was seconded.
The following modifications
were suggested, and were unanimously approved:
Section I, Part A:
In the third line from the end of paragraph, delete
the words, "in resolving borderline cases".
Section IV, Part A, Paragraph 2: Replace "consult with a poll" by "hold
a meeting of11 •
Section IV, Part A, Paragraph 3: Replace 11consu.lt with and poll" by
"hold a meeting of'".
By way of information, it was pointed out that an assistant professor cannot
be granted a continuing appointment until he has had seven years of service, with
a maximum of three years at another institution.
.. '
- 4-
The "Guidelines," as amended, passed unanimously.
Representing the Yn~~r~raguate ~cad~Wl9. Council, Dr. Fiser presented a
resolution, the intent of which was to express to the Board of Trustees the
concern of the Faculty Senate with respect to the recent statement of ·the
Trustees on the physical education program of SUNY.
Professor Knotts,
referringto the statement from the Executive Committee of Faculty Senate that
had been distributed to the Senators, stated that Chancellor Gould had assured
President Collins that the wording by the Trustees was unfortunate, and was not
meant to imply that the Trustees are mandating specific program requirements.
Professor Tibbetts said that this matter is being consj.dered by the University
Senate,-which body intends to ask the Trustees to modify their statement. It
was moved that the resolution of the Undergraduate Academic Council be tabled.
The motion passed unanimously.
The meeting adjourned at 5:30 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
?.!'....:.~-~~

degree to be awarded in each program of the various schools.
In the past,
a student was awarded an M.S. degree if he held a B.S. degree, and an M.A.
if he held a B.A. degree.
In the new proposal, the degree awarded is
determined by the program., rather than by the baccalaureate degree of the
student.
Dean Flinton moved the adoption of the new degree pattern, as out-
lined in the report of the Council. The motion was seconded, and it passed
unanimously.
The new policy will affect all masters programs which are begun
in the 1968 Summer Session or later.
Und~rgraduat& Academic Q9uncil-- President Collins (for Dr. Fiser).
Unfinished business of the November-December report was taken up. It was
moved and seconded to adopt the proposal for the admission and special
treatment of underprivileged freshmen,
The Council indicated that if the
proposal is adopted in principle, then specific details will be worked out by
an Ad Hoc Committee of the Council. It is hoped that this experimental
program can begin this summer, with a pre-session for about thirty students
who will be recruited from selected high schools in culturally and economi-
cally deprived areas. The proposal was approved unanimously.
It was moved and seconded to accept the report of the Council on
Honors Programs.
The motion passed unanimously.
To the already established
guidelines of the Committee on Honors and Independent Study will be added
the statement that all-·:rrew:--nonors programs shall be submitted to the Under-
graduate Academic Council and reported to the Senate.
Libraty Counc~- -Miss Hastings.
The reports of both the December and
January meetings of the Council were discussed. It was reported that Dick
Johnson is chairman of a committee working out procedures for determining
priorities in library acquisitions. The tentative plan involves the
preparation of the library budget by library staff and the Library Council
after the bibliographers have obtained requests from departmental chairmen.
The proposed budget will then be presented at a meeting of bibliographers and
chairmen, and this will probably result in a revision of the budget and
further meetings. It is hoped that the new plan can be implemented for the
fisca~ year beginning this April 1.
Miss Hastings, in response to a question, stated that the library
intends to circulate reports from time to time on the status of the library
acquisitions. The problem of departmental libraries was brought up.
There
is not enough clerical help to enable the library to send current periodicals
to the departments. It is essential at this time that a strong central
library be established. It is not out of the realm of possibility that
departmental libraries could be formed at a later date. The reports of the
Library Council were accepted unanimously.

Qt~d~ate Academic C&uncil - - Dean Flinton. The December 18 through
January 12 report was considered at this time. It was moved and seconded
that the proposed Ph.D. program in the Department of Astronomy and Space
Science be approved.
A brief discussion ensued on the nature of the
qualifying examinations and on the availability of telescopes. The
proposal passed unanimously.
Coup.ci::}. .Q!l R~searg:Q. - - Dr. Collins. Since the Council report of
December 12 required no action on any matter, ·~he report was approved by
concensus.
§:i;u.dent Affairs .Q.Q.uncil - - Vice President Thorne.
After a question
was answered with regard to forming a committee to deal with international
students, the report of December 12 was accepted.
F~cultz A£fairs Co~-- Dr. Sivers. The Council Report of December 11
was presented. Several senators expressed the opinion that the University
Bookstore should offer discounts to faculty and students, as is the common
practice of even private bookstores at many universities. The suitability
of using bookstore profits for coffee hours and other activities was
questioned. It was pointed out that, even though the Bookstore sells items
at list price, it operated at a loss last year. The report of the Council
was accepted unanimously.
The memorandum prepared by Professor Standing on Recommendations for
Faculty Parking Violations was then considered. Various methods for
enforcing parking rules were discussed. Senators were informed that the
University does not have the legal right to tow away cars. It was moved
and seconded that the Recommendations be adopted, with the suggestion that
the proposed methods of enfo:r•cing regulations be strengthened. After
discussion or the weakness of this approach, the motion was defeated. It
was then moved and seconded that paragraphs 1, 4 and 5 of the
Recommendations be accepted and that paragraphs 2 and 3 be returned to
Council for further work.
The motion carried.
The meeting adjourned at 5:25 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,

From:
Executive Committee
1. By virtue of their chairmen, all the Senate Councils and Committees,
except for the rraculty Affairs Council and the E:g:ecuttve Comml.ttee, have
permanent files and secretaries to tend them. The records of the Faculty
Affairs Council and Executive Committee lie scattered in the personal files
of their members, past and present. And with the exception of its minutes,
which are filed in the Library, the same is true of the Senate. To remedy
this situation, the Executive Committee requested and obtained a place to
house the permanent files of the Executive Committee, of the Faculty Af-
fairs Council and of the Senate, and the services of a secretary to set up
and maintain these files. The secretary is Mrs. Cullen and the place is
Administration 328.
2. The Executive Committee is presently planning to set up a Committee
on •reaching whose general charge would be to emphasize the central im-
portance of teaching in the University and to explore means of improving it.
This Committee's concern allies with a number of Councils but does not
obviously commit it to any particular one and so the Executive Committee
plans it to be a sub -committee of the Executive Committee. It will probably
be made up of five faculty members representative of the various kinds and
levels of teaching in the University. At the present stage of planning no
'
members for the Committee H~'ve' been chosen. The Executive Committee·
has also discussed with the 'Preside tit of Central Council the possibility of
the students setting up a matching committee of their own with which the
Facuity'Committee on Teaching would confer.

UNIVERSITY
OF
NEW
YORK
FACULTY
SENATE
~ort of the University Plannin~ Committee
The committee has met twice since we last reported to the Senate
in November, and has the following items to report.
Campus Academic Plans
The committee discussed extensively its possible role in the
review of campus academic plans and the formulation of the university
master .Plan.
The committee agreed that it would be virtually impossible
in terms of time and unquestionably inefficient to review in full the
sixty plus academic plans from each campus.
Our procedure will be
to have meeting(s) in Albany during March by which time Mr. Livesey's
staff will have prepared a digest of the general content of the campus
plans.
This will permit the committee to focus directly on those
areas of long-range planning that effect the university as a whole and
must be reviewed in order to develop meaningful recommendations.
Library Study Group
The committee has taken on two additional members as appointed by
the Executive Committee- Messers. Josiah Newcomb and William Conners,
Librarians at Binghamton and New Paltz respectively -
to assist the
committee in a detailed study of library policy development currently
underway through Mr. Livesey's office.
These two appointments will
form the nucleus of a study group that will begin shortly to evaluate
data toward formulating recommendations with particular regard to
staffing formulae, book acquisitions, and space allocations for the
campus libraries.
Campus Offices of Institutional Research
Throughout our discussions of the various aspects of long-range
planning, the committee has become increasingly aware of the need
for careful and thorough institutional research at the local campus
level.
Such planning is not pnly essential for the proper developing
of the university master plans but is almost mandatory toward pro-
viding each campus and the Central Staff with those data required
by a vast number of external agencies - particularly the federal
government.
This committee urges each senator to stress the need
for developing an office of institutional research on his campus
if none exists, and, where such an office already functions, en-
courage his colleagues to make full use of the office in responding
to questionnaires, providing data for grant proposals, etc.

satisfactory and "U" for unsatisfactory, with the grade of
"S" alone signifying the fulfillment of each of the re-
quired units.
4. That the Physical Education Department prepare proficiency
examinations whereby the above requirements may be ful-
filled totally and/or partially.
5. That Physical Education courses, intramural and intercol-
legiate programs be incorporated into the offerings which
may be used to fulfill the Physical Education requirement
with the approval of the Physical Education Department.
6. That the above program be implemented for freshmen beginning
in September, 1968.
1. That the Physical Education Department be requested to pre-
pare and submit its proposals for conditions of waiving the

Council.
1.1 8. That the Physical Education requirement be over and above
1 '

The Council recommends that the Social Science requirement
be changed:
from:
to:
"Six semester hours in History and six additional
from Anthropology, Economics, Geography, Political
Science, Psychology, Sociology"
~~
"Six semester hours in any of the following:
American Studies, Anthrop9logy~ Economics,
Qeography, History, Political Science, psy-
chology, or Sociology, and an additional six
hours from the remaining areas."
II. Reported for lnformationt
A. Proposed catalog copy for 1968-69 (page references are to
1967-68 catalog):
1. p. 58:
change footnote regarding incomplete grades by
placing in text, to read:
"The date stipulated
will not be later than one month before the end
of the semester following that in which the in-
complete is received.
The grade 'I' is auto-
matically changed to 'Z' unless work is com-
pleted as agreed between the student and the
instructor."
2. p. 59:
A re-wording regarding over-all average of "C" to:
"In the case of a single-subject major-field and
single-subject second-field, whether o:r not the
courses are used to satisfy specific requirements,
an over-all average of 'C' or better must be
earned for all courses taken both in the major
and in the second-field.
This regulation is in
effect for the Class of 1970 and following.
Students enrolled in previous classes (1968-69)
may fulfill this requirement if it is to their
advantage.
Generally, they follow the policy
as stated in the 1964-66 bulletin:
'all courses
used to satisfy the requirements in the major
and second-field must be completed with a grade
of "C" or better. '"
3. pp. 61-62:
Current wording regarding dropping a course
to be changed to indicate withdrawal through
last classes of each "session" rather than
"semester."
4. Portuguese to be listed under the second-field sequence.
3
5. Under the requirements for the Bachelor of Arts degree,
p. 54, change "a major in one of the following" to "a major
in one of the following offered through the College of Arts
and Sciences."
6. Archaeology to be added in the list of areas satisfying the
art, literature, music, philosophy requirement.
B. The Council plans to present the Report of the Special Under-
graduate Education Committee in an open meeting for faculty
and students at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, March 20, 1968, in the
Ballroom of the Campus Center.

Committee on Student Conduct
Mr. Robert Lanni, Chairman, reported disposit-ion of the "Waterbut'y
Case" discussed previously 'in Council meetings. As a result of a
hearlng by the Comm-ittee on Student Conduct, the Committee recom ..
mended to Presldent ColHns that the five men invt')lved in the case be
placed on disciplinary probation for varying amounts of time. Members

Committee on Student Government and OrganJzations
Mr. Neil C. Brown, Executive Secretary, reported that the Committee
is currently engaged in the process of annual self-evaluations of the
fraternities and sororities of the campus. Initial meetings have included
representatives from the PanHellenic Council, InterFraternity Council,
and InterSororlty Council. The process being evolved is to be a product
of the combined efforts of these three groups and the Comm'ittee~ The
Committee's projected time table calls for a final report of the self ...
evaluation process to Student Affairs CouncU by mid .. April.
The Committee has planned a meeting with Student Government officers
to review aspects of the student government on campus. The Com1nittee

further clarification, the Cornm'ittee is cons·idering the question of resi ..
dence groups desiring to purchase additional equipment (such as
refrigerators) for the res'ldence halls, and the final issue involves the
need for clearer understanding of the many surveys currently being done
in residence halls. The survey question has implications for possible
sanction by the Faculty Review Committee on Investigation& Involving
Hun1an Subjects, and the many opininn samples 'CUtrently being done by
Student Government p.crlnts to the l'leed for clear guidelines in this issue.

Report of the Council on Faculty Affairs
Meeting of Feb. 12, 1968
1. The major concern of the meeting was the Faculty Senate request for a
strengthened parking violation plan. Mr. Buckhoff met with the group.
An investigation of the legality of towing cars has been completed.
The
new recommendations are included as a separate unit with this report.
2. Various methods of alleviating parking difficulties were discussed, including
lot to podium shuttle carts, and expanded parking facilities near the
podium.
3. Mr. Buckhoff reported tha·t progress was being made on obtaining lighted
telephone booths for the parking lots. They now have several designs
submitted for style choice. Mr. Buckhoff expects to have maps of legal
parking areas and a copy of parking regulations ready for general circulation
to the faculty before April. Fire lane signs will be up soon.
4.
The group discussed the current practice of having special parking permits
issued by the people who also enforce parking regulations. This led to
the last recommendation in Mr. Standing's report.
5. Esther Cook reported on faculty concern that a serious situation exists
because there is no emergency first aid treatment available on the academic
podium. Mrs. Cook was authorized by the Council to contact Vice President
Thorne to investigate possible solutions to this problem.
6.
Charles Graber presented an extensive Treasurer's Report.
The balance
on hand as of January 31, 1968 was $2216.92.
The flower fund is low and
appears inadequate to cover needs for the remainder of the year. Four
hundred faculty members have paid their dues. A reminder will be sent
to those who have not paid.

MEMORANDUM
TOg
The.Faculty Senate, SUNY
FROM:
T,G. Standing, for The Council on Faculty Affairs
SUBJ:
Enforcement of Faculty Parking Regulations
DATE~ February 1), 1968
At its meeting on January 15, 1968, the Senate requested the
Council on Faculty Affairs to strengthen its proposals for
enforcing faculty parking regulations on the campus.
Subsequently, members of the Council have sought the opinions
and advice of various individuals from the faculty and adminis-
trative staff.
On February 12 Mr. Buckhoff~ the Plant
Superintendent, met with the Council for further discussion
of the problem.
From these discussions it would appear that the options for
enforcement procedures that are clearly legal are somewhat
limited.
In any case, the Council still feels that the main
reliance should be upon some form of 0'moral suasion".
Such an
approach would also seem to be most appropriate in a community
of responsible citizens. However, for those few who choose
to disregard such admonitions, stronger measures may be
desirable.
The Council therefore recommends:
1. That the Plant Superintendent be authorized to send
to the Council on Faculty Affairs a monthly list of
faculty violators who have failed to pay their fines.
2.
That a representative of the Council on Faculty Affairs
send a personal letter to such violators, requesting
them to pay their fines and appealing to their sense
of decency and fair play in helping to solve a
difficult problem by parking hereafter only in
officially designated areas.
;. That beginning April 1, 1968, the Plant Superintendent
be requested to have cars that are illegally parked
towed away and impounded until towing charges are paid.
4. The Council further recommends that a special committee
of faculty, students, and administrative staff be
constituted (a) to handle appeals concerning fines
and (b) to determine rules and priorities governing
the issuance of special permits for parking in areas
otherwise prohibited.

FACULTY SENATE MINUTES
March 18, 1968
The meeting was called to order by President Collins at 3:35 P.M.
in the Assembly Hall of Campus Center. It was noted that the minutes
of February 19 did not report correctly the new Social Sciences require-
ment.
The minutes should be amended (page one, paragraph three) to
read:
"the student would be required to take six semester hours in
any one of the following: American Studies, Anthropology, Economics,
Geography, History, Political Science~ Psychology, or Sociology; and
an additional six hours from the remaining areas."
The minutes were
approved, as amended.
Dr. Collins made three announcements:
(1)
The report of the special Committee on the Undergraduate
Program, entitled "New Patterns in Undergraduate Education," has been
printed by the ASP, and will be distributed to all students and
faculty. A mimeographed copy of .the report has also been sent to each
Senator by Vice President Fiser.
(2)
Depart,mental chairmen have been notif'i_ed by Vice President
Olson that there is a freeze, until further notice, on making any
non-:Lnstructional appo.:i.ntments.
The purpose of this is to obtain the
savings factor, which is 3t300,000 this year.
(The University is
allocated $300,000 less in funds than the budget calls for; this
amount is to be saved by delaying making new budge·bed appointments
for several weeks.)
The Legislature is cutting the budget, and the
University has been asked to abide by an additional ~t282,000 savings
factor.
(3) Dr. Flser has signified his desire to resign as Vice Presi-
dent for Academic Affairs and to return to his former position as
Professor of Political Set ence.
When he accepted the Vice Presidency
three years ago, he indicated his willingness to hold that position
for two or three years.
He now wishes to have the opportunity to
return full time to his academic discipline.
Dr. Collins said that it has been a pleasure to have worked with
Dr. Fiser, and it is with regret that he will be accepting his resig-
nation. Dr. Collins will not review the Vice President's many accom-
plishments at this time, but will reserve such remarks for another
occasion.
The President indicated that the man who is his first
choice to succeed Dr. Fiser has been interviewed by the Executive
Commit·cee of Faculty Senate, representing the Faculty, and by the
deans.
Dr. Collins hopes to go to the April meeting of the Board of
Trustees with a recommenda·tion.
The reports of the various councils were then given.
Co~Q~l on Research ~- Vice President Droessler. Dr. Droessler
outlined briefly the topics covered at the last three meetings of the
Council.
On December 20, Dr. Vincent Schaefer reviewed for the Council
-2-
the structure and activities of the Atmospheric Sciences Research
Center.
Dr. Haniuk explained a new purchasing system which will
enable scientists to obtain consummable supplies for sponsored
research projects directly from the supply stores operated by the
Departments of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.
On January 17,
Professor Joseph Zimmerman, Director of the Local Government Studies
Center of the GSPA, presented the activities of his center, and
discussed the budget problems the Center is encountering. Mr. Frank
Lucarelli, Business Manager of the Office of Sponsored Funds,
described the functions of his new office.
On February 20, the Council
reviewed the SUNYA policy dealing with conflict of interest. It also
approved the following statement, and requested that the Chairman
include it in his next report to Faculty Senate.
11The Council reviewed the research activities
of the GSPA Local Government Studies Center
with its Director, Dr. Joseph F. Zimmerman.
Dr. Zimmerman report~d the Center was encoun-
tering serious administrative difficulties
and many of these appeared to have become
more acute following the transfer of GSPA to
the SUNYA campus.
Among other things, he
emphasized that the development of new
research programs was hampered by the lack of
a firm budget and firm budget plans.
The Cour)cil is concerned that the effective-
ness of ·the leadership and research of the
Local Government Studies Center is impaired,
and the staff may be seriously demoralized.
This condition should not continue to exist
on our campus.
The Council wishes to call the attention of
the Senate and the SUNYA administration to
this problem area.
The Council recommends that an outside panel
of experts be appointed by the President
with the advice of the Graduate School of
Public Affairs and convened under the Dean
of the Graduate School of Public Affairs,
to examine into the purpose, function and
research activities of the SUNYA Local
Government Studies Center, and that the
panel report its findings and recommendation
at the earliest possible date to the Dean
of the Graduate School of Public Affairs."
Dr. Droessler moved that the Senate accept the report and endorse
the recommendation of the Council.
The motion was seconded.
In
response to questions, it was stated that the source of funds for the
Local Government Studies Center is the State, and the money (as much
as $80,000 in past years) is from funds earmarked for Organized
Research.
One of the principal expenditures of the Center is for
publications relating to local government activities throughout the
United States. After President Collins said that he thought a request
for an outside panel ought to come from the Dean of the School,
Dr. Droessler indicated that he had talked to Dean Tickner about the
-.3-
recommendation, and that the Dean is in favor of it. Dr. Flinton
thought that we ought to find out more about 'the.problems of the
Center, and should determine if they could be solved internally first.
At the request of Dr. Gardner, Dr. Droessler withdrew that part of his
motion which called for endorsement of the recommendation of the Council.
The motion to accept the report of the Council on Research was passed.
Executive Committee -- Professor Knotts.
Item 1 of the Executive
Committee report stated that permanent files of the Executive Committee,
the Faculty Affairs Council, and the Senate are being set up in AD 328.
In response to a question, Dr. Knotts stated ·that these files are not
open to the faculty in general, but are for record purposes.
Item 2
described the proposed Committee on Teaching, to be set up by the
Executive Committee. It appeared that Professor Kendall voiced the
sentiments of many Senators, when he registered his enthusiastic
approval of the establishment of a Committee on Teaching.
The Committee
report was accepted.
Graduate Academic Council -- Dean Flinton.
The report covered
the period from February 15 to March 15. Dr. Flinton moved the
acceptance of two new programs:
one leading to the University
Certificate in Educational Media, and the other leading to the Master
of Science degree in Educational Media.
The motion was seconded.
After a few questions were answered by Professor R.owe, the motion passed.
The Council voted to recommend to the Senate that the period within
which a graduate student may withdraw from a course without penalty be
extended from 5 weeks to 9 weeks from the date classes commence in each
of the two semesters of the regular academic year and 4 weeks from the
date classes commence in the regular summer session.
Dean Flinton moved
that this new policy be adopted.
The motion was seconded. It was noted
that an undergraduate may withdraw from a class up through the last day
of classes in a semester.
Several Senators were opposed to putting a
restriction on graduate students that undergraduates do not have, and
said that it was illogical to give less freedom to the more mature
students. Others felt that there was no inconsistency, since the
graduate students come with their goals fairly well established, while
the undergraduates are sampling courses, and are not sure where their
interests lie. Dean Flinton explained that the limiting of automatic
withdrawals to nine weeks was made in an effort to maintain the
graduate standards, which specify that, in order to qualify for a masters
degree, a student must mo.ke a B average in 30 out of the first 36 hours
of graduate work he completes. If a student were allowed to withdraw
just before the final examination in a course, he could extend
indefinitely the number of courses he attempts. It was pointed out
that, with good and sufficient reasons, a student can withdraw af.ter
nine weeks without penalty.
The main effect of the new ruling would
be that the Graduate Studies office would have fewer specific cases on
which it would be required to make decisions.
l'ea.n Gardner urged the
Senate to support the motion.
Professor Donovan moved that the motion
be withdrawn, and that the Council study other means for preventing
gradua.te students from dropping courses.
His motion was seconded, and
then defeated.
The original motion passed, with a few negative votes.
Undergraduate Academic, Council -- Vice President Fiser. Dr. Fiser
indicated that the Council had studied the proposed Physical Education
requirement again, as requested by the vote at the February Senate
meetingj and had not seen fit to change it. Hence, he moved the
acceptance of the requirement, as presented in February. His motion was
-4-
seconded.
Dr. Beaver moved to amend the requirement by deleting from
item 1 the words:
"including time needed for dressing and undressing
when necessary."
The motion to amend was seconded. It was pointed
out that if' a student is to earn one unit in a semester, he vrould have
to set aside two double periods per week, in order to have not only
time for two academic hours of instruction and activity, but also time
for undressing and dressing.
Professor Zimmerman said that the GSPA
faculty members were polled, and that they are against compulsory
physical education.
When one Senator questioned the place of physical
education in the University program, another Senator indicated that he
would not like to get into a discussion of the Value of Physical Educa-
tion in Higher Education.
The motion to amend the :requirement carriad,
by a vote of 24 to 16.
The motion to accept the Physical Education
requirement, as amended,was then passed, by a vote of 29 to 9.
(See
attached sheet, which gives the new Physical Education requirement, as
amended.)
Council on Faculty Affa:l.:r;:fJ. -- Professor Si vers.
The Council
recommended that a special committee be established to handle parking
ticket apper:1ls, and to determine rules and practices governlng the
issuance of parking permits. It further recommended that this committee
consist of a representative from each of the following four groups:
Plant Superintendent's Office, Council on Faculty Affairs, Council on
Student Affairs, Student Association.
This committee would not supersede
Dean Mathew's function in handling traffic violations, bu~ would act as
an appeal board for students and faculty who wished to appeal the Dean's
decisions. President Collins pointed out the fact that there is in
operation student enforcement of student violations. Several Senators
thought that student governance and faculty governance should be kept
separate, and that this committee should handle just faculty cases.
It this is to be the situation, then there should not be students on
the committee. It was moved and seconded that the following amended
recommendation be approved by Faculty Senate:
The Council on Faculty Affairs recommends
that the special committee to handle faculty
and staff parking ticket appeals, and to
determine rules and practices governing the
lssuance of faculty and staff parking permits,
consist of one representative from the Plant
Superintendent's Office and two :representatives
from the Council on Faculty Affairs.
These
representatives are to be appointed by the
head of the group or elected -- whichever
method the group prefers.
In response to a question concerning parking violations procedures,
Dr. Sivers said that first the (alleged) offender's ca:r is ticketed.
If he doesn't pay the fine, then the new committee will send him a
letter.
(Each Senator was given a sample copy of the letter to be sent.)
If he appeals to Dean Mathews, and the case appears to be an exceptional
one, the Dean will turn the case over to the committee.
There is no
machinery for taking care of the faculty member who does not respond,
or for dealing with the habitual violator.
The Council will study this
problem.
The amended motion passed.
-5-
L~brar~Council -- Miss Hastings.
No action was required on
the report. It was moved and seconded that the report be accepted.
The motion passed.
Professor Knotts announced that, because of Spring Recess, the
next Senate meeting would be held on the second Monday -= April 8.
The meeting adjourned at 5:35 P.M.

From:
Executive Committee
1. By virtue of their chairmen, all the Senate Councils and Committees,
except .for the li'aculty Affairs Council and the Executive Committee, have
permanent files and secretaries to tend them. The records of the Faculty
Affairs Council and Executive Committee lie scattered in the personal files
of their members, past and present. And with the exception of its minutes,
which are filed in the Library, the same is true of the Senate. To remedy
this situation, the Executive Committee requested and obtained a place to
house the permanent files of the Executive Committee, of the Faculty Af-
fairs Council and of the Senate, and the services of a secretary to set up
and maintain these files. The secretary is Mrs. Cullen and the place is
Administration 328.
2. The Executive Committee is presently planning to set ttp a Committee
on Teaching whose general charge would be to emphasize the central im-
portance of teaching in the University and to explore means of improving it.
This Committee's concern allies with a number of Councils but does not
obviously commit it to any particular one and so the Executive Committee
plans it to be a sub -committee of the Executive Committee. It will probably
be made up of five faculty members representative of the various kinds and
levels of teaching in the University. At the present stage of planning no
meh:.pers for the Committee have been chosen. The Executive Committee
has also discussed w'ith the President of Central Council the possibility of
the st~udents settirig ·up a matching committee of their own with which the
Faculty Committee· on Te.ac.hing would confer.

I. The Faculty se·nate .at its meeting of ·F~br\,la.ry ·19~·~ J96$,,. voted to
· ·return the Physical Education Proposal approved ·by, :the Academic
CO'uncil to the Curriculum Committee of. the Undergr.aduate Aca-
demic Council for reconsideratioth.: .. Although there was no specif-
. ·ic charge from the Senate to guid.e. ·its ,deliberations, the com-
mittee reconvened.to reconsider i.tsr,ecommendations.
·' .·
.
•'' '!~
. •
.
The committee felt that it should r,eitera.te thethinking and con-
·Clttsions which led to the original. recommendatiqns:, . arrived at
after many long meetings..
Drs .. Werner: .and Co bane of the Physi-
cal Education Department participated a'ti two Qf ~hese meetings.
(There were several other discussions between Drs, Werner and
Cobane and the chairman of the committee.)
The following points
·" ·summarize the thinking of the committee.:·
.. ·
I
··:'
/a.· If one of the functions ·of .. the Upive;r$ity is the develop-
. meht of citizens' for a modern. society in which the amount
.. · .. tif':C'leisure time is increasing; .then- a Plwsieal Educa.tion
Program emphasizing "carry over". :spor.ts ac.tivity seems to
be desirable.
The program outlined.bytb.e Physical.ll:ctuca-
tion Department does stress ·"car:r.y ·over.'' sports activity.
The committee, however, did not think it necessary, nor in
fact desirable, that all' studente: .. be.c9me competeut in or
ta:ke. part in all forms of·. athl.etic ;a;ctivity.
rhe comm.i ttee
felt the students should be exposed.to the .athletic oppor-
tunities available and should: be encourawed to develop
those activities in which they are interested.
b.
The committee considered claims by the Physical Education
Department of the relationship between physical education
and health.
Several studies indicate that moderate physical
activity does, for example, decrease the incident of heart
disease and extends longevity.
The conclusions of these
studies are based on a continuing program of physical activi-
ty over a long period of time.
No physical education requne-
ment in the undergraduate years, no matter how extensive,
can guarantee the above results.
The committee felt that
all that can be hoped for is that students be encouraged to
develop an interest in one or more physical activities and
to continue these activities throughout their lives.
c.
The committee felt that it is desirable to have physical
education facilities because of the recreational opportuni-
ties the facilities afford.
The committee, therefore,
agreed that the budgetary considerations which at present
provide staff and facilities cannot be overlooked.
The ini-
tial formula which provides the budget is based on numbers
of students enrolled in courses.
-----------------------
2
d.
The Physical Education Department maintains that at present
it does not have the time to achieve what it would like to
achieve.
The present physical education requirement con-
sists of two double periods a week for two semesters.
The
committee found that in.each double perio.d (110 minutes) ap-
proximately 20 minutes were not. used at !:'tll.
l!'ur',ther, the
committee felt that the pr~ctice of the -.Physical E.ducation
Department in. n()t scheduling courses after i 2:00 p ~ttl.• ·made
the scheduling.of other. courses difficult for ma~y students.
The intent of the.committee in its recommendations of Janu-
ary 16, 1968, was to provide the same number of total hours
. of physical education as is now required.
Th~- recommenda-
tions further provide flexibility of scheduling and timing
for both the Physical Education :P.epartment and, Stud.ents,
thereby allowing·the. time available. to be used more e;ffi-
clently.
·
· ·
·
In its meeting of February 29, 1968, the committ.ee rev.iewed the
points summarized above and found no basis for.modifying its
·position of January. 16., 1968.
The committee voted.. to recommend
to the Undergraduate Academic Counci.l tb.e resubmission to the
Senate of the 3anuary 16 recommendations •. The Undergraduate
Academic Council met March 4, 1968, and approved.the recommenda-:.
tions of the Curriculum Committee. arid resubmits. to the Senate

STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT ALBANY
REPORT OF THE COUNCIL ON RESEARCH
The Council on Research has held three meetings since its last
report to the Senate dated December 12, 1967.
Meeting of December 20, 1967 -- The Council reviewed the activ-
ities of the Atmospheric Science Research Center (ASRC}, one of the two
SUNY A centers supported under organized research.
At the Council's invitation, Professor Vincent Schaefer, Director
of ASRC, was pre sent along with the Administrative Assistant of ASRC,
Mr. Al Hulstrunk. Dr. Schaefer outlined the origin and the activities of
ASRC emphasizing that its chief function was to bring together outstand-·
ing scientists and to provide the needed facilities for high quality research
in the atmospheric sciences.
He noted that the principal research area of
ASRC deals with fundamental studies of particles in the atmosphere, rang~
ing in size from sub-micron particles to the larger of the hyd.rometeors.
An experimental cloud physics laboratory i.s being assembled in the large
hangar building at the Schenectady Airport which the university rents from
Schenectady County.
Dr. ·schaefer briefly described the dozen or rnore field stations
which ASRC has access to throughout the country, including ASRC 1 s main
station at Whiteface Mountain. He noted that the ASRC program provides
close support for the teaching and research objectives of the Department
of Earth and. Atmospheric Sciences.
The Council expressed satisfaction with ASRC leadership and its
research programs, notimg that the Center already enjoys national and in-
ternational r epu ta ti on.
The Council also invited Dr. Einard Haniuk, Assistant to the Vice
President for Research, to this meeting and asked him to explain a new
purchasing system intended to facilitate purchase of consumable supplies
needed for research in the Division of Science and Mathematics.
Under
the existing structure there was no way in which supplies for research
under sponsored funds could be purchased from the supply stores oper-
ated by the departments_ of physics, chemistry and biology. Working with
the Research Foundation, the Office of Sponsored Funds now has estab-
lished a simple revolving fund under which faculty members engaged in
sponsored research can make immed.iate purchases at any of the stores.
···.,
Meeti.:r;tg of January 17, 1968 --At the Counci.l 1s invitation Profes-
sor Joseph Zirnmerman, Director of the GSPA 1 s Local Governrnent Studies
Center, explained the workings of his organization, After sketching the
origin of the Center, Dr. Zirnme.l'man described the Center 1s extensive
publications program, which is of national interest and is contributed to
by scholars and public figures from the entire nation. Another important
function of the Center is to serve as a clearing house for information on
problems of metropolitan areas; such information is both received and,
distributed by the Center on a world-wide basis.
Dr. Zimmerman then dwelt on the considerable administrative dif-,
ficulties encountered by the Center.
He emphasized that the development
of new programs was seriously hampered by the lack of a firm budget.
After a lively discussion on probldms of Center administration and funding,
Dr. Zimmerman received the thanks of the council and left the meeting.
The Council had also invited Mr. Frank Lucarelli, Business Manager
of the Office of Sponsored Funds, to describe the functions of his new office,
Mr. Lucarelli explained that the office had been established by President
Collins on September 21, 1967, as a joint responsibility of the Vice Presidents
for Management and Planning and Research.
He emphasized that the basic
purpose of the office was to relieve the faculty of as much administrative
burden as possible and to pr,ovide efficient administration for the sponsored
funds which come to SUNYA.
He projected an expenditure of approximately
L 6 million dollars for the sponsored funds in 19 67-68, up from . 9 million
dollars expenditures last year. Mr. Lucarelli left the meeting with the thanks
of the Council.
·
Meeting of February 20, 19 68 -- As a follow-up on the last meeting,
the Council considered a draft statement dealing with the SUNY A Local Gov-
ernment Studies Center. Following discussion and minor ch?-nges, the Council
approved the statement and requested that the Chairman include it in his next
report to the Faculty Senate.
The statement follows.
11 The Council reviewed the research activities of the GSPA
Local Government Studies Center with its Director, Dr. Joseph
F. Zimmerman. Dr. Zimmerman reported the Center was en-
countering serious administrative difficulties and many of these
appeared to have become more acute following the transfer of
GSPA to the SUNY A campus. Among other things, he em.pha-
sized that the development of new research programs was ham-
pered by the lack of a firm budget and firm budget plans,
The Council is concerned that the effectiveness of the
leadership and research of the Local Government Studies
Center is impaired, and the staff may be seriously demor-
alized. This condition should not continue to exist in our
campus.
The Council wishes to call the attention of the Senate
and the SUNYA administration to this problem area.
The Council recommends that an outside panel of ex-
perts be appointed by the President with the advice of the
Graduate School of Public Affairs and convened under the
Dean of the Graduate School of Public Affairs, to examine
into the purpose, function and research activities of the
SUNYA Local Government Studies Center, andthatthe panel
report its findings and recommendation at the earliest pos-
sible date to the Dean of the Graduate School of Public
Affairs.''
The Council is reviewing the SUNYA policy dealing with conflict of
interest, which about a year ago had been developed by the Council, ap-·
proved by the Faculty Senate, and. is publishedinthe 1967-68'Facu~ty Hand-
book, page 25-27.
The review was precipitated by new statements on the
conflict of interest problem received from the Chancellor's office andfrom
the Faculty Research Committee of the SUNY Faculty Senate.
The matter
will be considered further at the next meeting of the Council.

Proposed letter to be sent to parking violators
Date:
March 5, 1968
Dear Colleague:
As you know, the problem of faculty parking facilities on
the University campus is a persisteQt and baffling one.
There is
probably no solution that would be entirely satisfactory to everyone,
although plans for the future promise considerable improvement through
provision of underground parking beneath the expanded academic podium.
In the meantime, we have to make the best of the present facilit-
ies in a way that will be as fair to everyone as possible.
The staff
of the Plant Superintendent and Security Office are, we believe,
making a sincere effort with the insufficient personnel presently
provided by the State to police the grounds and parking lots effectively
and fairly.
We are restricted in the location of parking areas by
contractual agreements with the architect as well as by regulations
of the Central University Administration.
OUr investigation indicates,
however, that there~ adequate parking spaces available on the campus
although they may not be as conveniently located as we might at times
wish. A limited number of special permits for parking on the academic
podium are available to those who are physically handicapped or who
for other reasons are entitled to special consideration.
Obviously,
safety and fire hazards preclude the general use of such areas.
It is our understanding that in the near future the Plant
Superintendent will be authorized to have~ illegally parked cars,
both of faculty and students, towed away and impounded until towing
charges are paid. It is anticipated that this policy will discourage
Page 2
illegal parking.
We now come to the main point of this letter which is respect-
fully to urge you, in the light of the situation briefly described
above and in fairness to your colleagues, to arrange for the settle-
ment of the parking violations presently charged against you.
Should
you feel that there are extenuating circumstances in your case Which
justify a remission of the penalty assessed, you may appeal the
assessment to Dr. Elmer Mathews, Dean of Administration (AD 345).
Forms for this purpose are available from his office.
May I add that the Council on Faculty Affairs of the University
Senate would appreciate any suggestions you may have for dealing more
effectively and fairly with this perplexing problem which 9oncerns us
all.
Sincerely yours,
Ted Standing, Chairman
Faculty Parking Committee

Council on Faculty Affairs
of the Faculty Senate
STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT ALBANY

These :representatives are to be appointed by the head of the group or
elected -- whichever method the group prefers.
Faculty difficulty in directing taxi drivers, garage men, and :friends
to the campus was discussed. It was felt parking areas needed large,

FACULTY SENATE HINUTES
April 8, 1960
The meeting was called to order by President Collins at
3:40 P.JYl. in the Assembly Hall of Campus Canter.
He noted
that since a quorum was not present, any actions taken will
have to be reaffirmed at a later meeting.
Dr. Collins stated that Jerry Davis, a representative of
the Black Students Alliance, had asked permission to address
the Faculty Senate.
Hr. Davis read a statement that reflected
the reaction of his organization to the assassination of or.
Martin Luther King, and he asked ti1at April 9 1 the day of or.
King's funeral, be proclaimed a "black holiday," with all
classes cancelled,
Dr. Collins said that although the deci-
sion to cancel classes is his, he wished to consult others
before making the decision.
He indicated that Central Council
was also discussing the matter at this time.
Several faculty
spoke out in favor of not holding classes.
The use of the term,
black holiday, was questionea.
Some felt that the act of can-
celling classes should be considered a symbolic act of respect.
JYlr. Davis was thanl<:'ed, and after he left, the regular business
meeting began.
The minutes of the meeting of M.arch 18 were accepted by
concensus.
Dr. Collins announced that he had received information
today from or. Price's office concerning faculty salaries.
In
the new, as yet unpassed, budget there is a figure of $5 •. 9
million for improvement in salaries.
This is about $1.5 million
more than the figure recommended earlier in the Governor's
budget. If this is approved, each faculty member will receive
in September, in addition to his normal annual increment, a
2%
across~the-board increase.
Some faculty will also receive
selective increments, which will average 3.9% per faculty mem-
ber.
Those teaching in summer Session will receive all but the
selective increment, as of July 1. It was indicated in the
guidelines of the Trustees that, in giving the selective in-
creases, more attention should be paid to library staff and
to faculty in the lower ranks.
Reports of councils and committees were then made.
I. Executive Committee ...... Professor ltnotts. Professor
· Knotts re'commenCled' tilat Faculty Senate approve the statement
proposed by the Executive Committee regarding the use of the
-2-
words:
committee, council, Faculty, and University. It was
moved and seconded that the statement be accepted, with a phrase
added at the end of the last sentence.
The complete amended
statement is as follows:
Most of the formal University faculty activity
is carried out through the efforts of the Senate and
its Councils and Senate and Faculty Committees7 hence
the terms "Faculty Committee," "Faculty Council,"
"University Committee" and "University Council" have
the ring of institutional endorsement.
Therefore the
Faculty Senate of the State University of New York at
Albany suggests that faculty members refrain from using
the terms "committee" or "council" coupled with "Faculty"
or "University" for any other than the formal organiza-
tions of the Faculty, its Senate, and of the University.
The motion passed unanimously.
II. Undergraduate Academic Council -- Vice President
Fiser.
Dr:-F!ser moved that the Sena"te approve of SUNY at
Albany becoming an associate member of the Ne~:.~ York College
Bound Corporation.
The motion was seconded.
In response to
questions 1 Dr. Fiser indicated that the corporation 'tl'as set
up in order to provide funds to prepare disadvantaged high
school students in New York City for college.
A full member
of the corporation participates in the preparing of these
students for college, as well as accepting them, while an
associate member merely agrees to accept a certain number into
the freshman class each year.
Because of the distance of Albany
from Ne"t't)' York, it is not feasible for us to provide counsell-
ing, tutoring, and other services to the high school students.
If the Senate approves the motion, we shall take 1/2% of the
freshman class from this group.
This would amount to accept-
ing about eight students this fall who might not be admitted
if processed by the usual admissions procedures.
The motion
passed unanimously.
III.
Graduate Academic council -- Vice President Fiser.
In the writt.e'n. "statement that there is no report this month,
the word "April" should be substituted for "May".
IV.
Student Affairs Council -- Vice President Thorne.
senators had received earll.er the complete written report of
the Council meeting of t1arch 15.
Dr. Thorne elaborated on the
Dow Chemical Company incident.
Forty-eight students involved
in the demonstration on February 21 turned their ID cards over
to the University security officers.
The students were charged
with violating the University policy statement of December 14,
1967.
The students then obtained legal counsel.
Attorneys
for the students contended that the Constitution of New York
requires that regulations be filed with the secretary of State.
-3-
Hence, the legality of the December 14 policy was questioned,
since it had not been filed.
2.\s a result of the attempt to
obtain a restraining order to prevent disciplinary hearings
from being conducted, the University agreed to postpone the
hearings until the merits of the case could be argued in court
on April 19.
No local charges have been made against the seven
s·tudents who were arrested.
v •. Libra;.x, council -- I.1iss Hastings.
There was. no report.,
A quest1on was asked concern1ng the manpower cutback 1n library
staff and its effect on library acquisitions.
Miss Hastings
stated that of 49 positions requested, only six are being made
available. It appears that the cuts were made at the Bureau
of the Budget, presumably because this is an economy year, and
the Central office did not make a good systematic presentation
of library needs throughout the various units.
JYliss Hastings
indicated that the six new people \'Till be put on technical
services, and the acquiring of new materials.
There will be
enough personnel to process new books and journals as they ar-
rive, but there will be no additional bibliographers.
Hence
it will be impossible to got caught up on the backlog of un-
catalogued material.
New Business.
Professor Baum presented a proposal of the
University Colloquium Committee, which is presently an autono-
mous group, formerly called the Research Society.
The Committee
requested that the Faculty Senate consider sponsoring the
University Colloquia under the aegis of its council on Research.
President Collins said that since each council is free to or•
ganize its own committees, it would be more appropriate for
the Colloquium Committee to approach the Council on Research
with its proposal.
Professor Sivers, who was first approached
by the Committee, said she spoke to Dr. Droessler, who felt
that the matter should come to the Senate first.
Dr. Baum
withdrew his proposal, and said he would present it to the
council on Research.
Professor Morris Eson had asked permission to address the
Senate.
He read a paper, in which he spoke to the issue of
the absence of a significant number of Negro students on our
University campus.
He felt that the College Opportunity Program
will not be doing enough, with its admission of 30 disadvantaged
students.
He questioned the assumptions underlying the present
admissions policies, and stated that "Our present procedures,
consisting of College Board examinations, which cost money,
application :forms, somewhat complex in nature and which also
cost money, coming to campus for an admissions interviet-1 1 which
costs money, and much else in addition, have effectively pre-
cluded the enrollment of a significant number of Negro students
who might otherwise be minimally qualified to undertake a pro-
gram of college study. • • •
As the admissions office has been
serving our collective will and has been doing much that is
'
'
right and equitable, there has been a Dy~ptoduct of great in-
justice.
Dr. Eson said he hopes that the Faculty Senate will
go on record as favoring a plan that would bring up to 200
Negro students to this campus ov~r and above the present number
of students being admitted this :t:all,
He felt that a resolu-
tion to this effect by the Senate would not only express the
will of the faculty to the administration, but would also in-
dicate the willingness of the faculty to do whatever needs to
be done in order to make the program wotk.
Professor Zimmerman moved that the State University at
Albany adroit up to 200 disadvantaged students this fall, in
addition to our regular quota of freshmen.
The motion was
seconded.
Professor Tibbetts felt that it is irresponsible
for the faculty to vote in favor of this motion without know-
ing how or whether it can handle these students.
Professor
Brown said she interpreted the motion simply as a mandate to
start the machinery.
Professor Fiser stated that the SEEK
program has the objective that Dr. Eson expressed.
Our admin-
istration has informed the Central Office that we're interested
in the SEEK program, if money is to be appropriated,
The budget
for this appears to be confused at present.
In response to a
question as to why we are not attracting Negroes. from middle
income families, it was pointed out that these Negroes go, in
general, to certain prestige Negro colleges, such as Howard
University, and that institutions such as Princeton and Harvard
are actively recruiting the well qualified Negroes.
The motion
to approve, in principle, the development of a plan to admit
up to 200 disadvantaged students this fall was passed unani-
mously.
President Collins announced that all classes will be
suspended tomorrow.
The meeting adjourned at 5:15 P.IV1.
Respectfully submitted,

Most of the formal University faculty activity is carried

MINUTES
May 20, 1968
The meeting was called to order by President Collins at 2:15 P.M. in the
Assembly Hall of Campus Center.
The report of the Graduate Academic Council
wa.~ o.al.J.ed for first, so tha't. persons representing the programs to be presented
would then be free to leave.
I. .Qraduate Academic CQ__un..Q.i1--Dean Flinton.
New programs in the School
of Education and in the College of Arts and Sciences have been approved by
the Curriculum Committees of those schools, and have been approved by the
Graduate Academic Council.
They were at this time presented to Faculty Senate
for approval.
A.
!lni]:,ersi;ty Qert11.i&£11e in_Educati.Qn£1,.l_Psychology and Statistics.
This will round out the program of the Department of Educational
Psychology and Statistics, which already has M.S. and Ed.D. programs.
The proposed new program will parallel the Ed.D. program, but will not
go as far. It was moved and seconded that this program be approved
retroactively so that two students who are completing the program this
semester can be given the University Certificate in June.
The motion
passed unanimously.
B.
Ma§.:li.C?.t...Pf .1\rJ._s :i,n_l?.t:urlig_J\x: .. Lg_t1U.r:LJiig.t.Q.tX• It was moved and
seconded that this program be approved. If approved, a limited number of
students will start the course of stud:l.es this fall. It is hoped that
the program will attract pra.cticing artists and museum directors, as well
as art teachers.
The motion passed unanimously.
C.
!:1§!-§..t§L.Qf Science i.:n..J:.h§ TeaQbing_.Qf_~glish as a_§lec_Qnd
Language. It was moved and seconded that this program be approved.
Since this is an inter-disciplinary program, there was some discussion
as to the extent to which persons in other departments were consulted
about the courses listed. It was felt that a course in linguistics
should be mandatory.
Professor Wheeler said that, outside of the
methodology courses, the other requirements were not sufficiently spelled
out, and so he moved that the program be referred back to the Gradua·te
Academic Council.
This was seconded, but the motion was lost.
The
motion to approve the program was passed.
D.
Mast~r of Science in Com~uter_£g~~· It was moved and seconded
that this program be approved. It was pointed out that there is no
undergraduate major in Computer Science, and that a student with an
undergraduate second field in Computer Science would go into this program.
-2-
Up to 12 credits may be e~rned at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. At
present our.Computer Science Department has the equivalent of 4-1/2
to 5 full-time people.
The motion passed unanimously.
After the approval of the graduate programs, the Senate returned to the
usual order of business.
Dr. Collins indicated that approving the minutes of
the Senate meeting of April 8 carried with it approval of action taken at that
meeting, since a quorum was not present at the April meeting.
Professor Birr
moved that the minutes be accepted and confirmed.
The motion was seconded,
and passed-... with a correction in the spelling of "consensus".
II.
~§Qutive Committe~--Professor Knotts.
Dr. Kndtts moved that the
annual report of the Faculty Senate include the furee Executive Committee
recommendations, as distr:i.buted.
He noted that these recommendations .bad been
brought before the 1968-69 Faculty Senate at its organizational meeting.
The
motion was seconded, and passed.
IIL
'Q:ndel:'g~..tfLAqg,dem:lq_~--..Vice President Fiser.
Dr. Fiser
moved that the Senate recei~e the report of the special Committee on Undergraduate
Education.
The motion was seconded.
President boilins indicated that passage
of this motion would simply signify approval of the general ~olicies and goals
of the report. It would then be the obligation of the President, the
Departments, and special task forces to decide upon the best means for
implementation.
Professor Donovan asked if the second draft of the report
differed significantly from the first draft.
The answer indicated that in the
second draft the trans-national programs were de-emphasized, and the task force
to set up a General College was urged to consider four-year programs, rather
than just two-year programs.
Professor Berger felt that politically it might
be easier to write a four-year program into the report now, rather than to
leave the possibility as a mere suggestion.
Dr. Collins said that this point
could be implemented by the Undergraduate Academic Council after the Senate has
accepted the Report.
Some members indicated that they approved of some parts
of the Report, but disapproved of other parts. Dr. Collins stated that
acceptance of the report does not authorize imple!P.entation of any parts of the
report. Each part that bears on matters subject to the jurisdiction of the
Senate will be brought back to the Senate for approval, after the part is
formulated as a workable proposal.
When asked about priority of the various
programs, Dr. Collins said that he would judge that the faculty ranks the
Experimental College low on the list and the four-year General College high.
After further discussion about implementation and the role of the departments,
the motion passed, with one dissenting vote.
IV.
Council on Faculty~fai~--Dr. Sivers. Referring to the written
report in the hands of the Senators, Dr. Sivers moved that faculty dues of $3
be collected from each faculty member for 1968-69, and that this collection be
handled separately from the Joint Appeal Campaign.
Motion was seconded.
Collection will be from "Faculty, 11 as dt:9fined in the guidelines proposed by
the Faculty Affairs Council.
The motion passed unanimously.
Professor Sivers moved that the request for an in-depth study of the
parking situation be approved.
The motion was seconded, and passed.
(A light
note, courtesy of Vice President Olson;
11The in-depth study refers to
underground parking, no doubt.")
-3-
V.
Li~r:L.9..Q.JJ!1p;i.J--Miss Hastings.
No action was required, and the
report of the Library Council was accepted.
Professor Berger expressed his concern over the security of books and
other library materials, as students can leave by several unsupervised doors.
Miss Hastings said that the Library has neither the personnel nor the money to
do adequate policing of exits. She would welc0me work-study students and
suggestions for alleviating this bad situation.
VI.
Student ~ff~rs Co~--Vice President Thorne.
The meeting of
May 10 dealt with the concern of three faculty members over_threats to
penalize students academically for violating social regulations. At the meeting
of May 17, an ad hoc committee was appointed to look into this matter. Also
at that meeting the charters of several sororities and a fraternity were
renewed for a semester.
In response to a question regarding the status of students involved in the
Dow Chemical incident, Dr. Thorne replied that all students had been heard by
the Ccmmittee on Student Conduct, but that the Committee reports have not yet
been made.
VII.
Q.Qw.lQiJ.. Q~ P;tQm.Qt;iQn§ qnQ. Con,tJ:Duing ArmJJ:!.:tilJ;eni;&--Dr. Fiser.
Fifteen faculty members have been promoted in rank, but their names have not
been released. Decisions on continuing appointments are not all firm as yet.
The President may call the Council into session to consider two or three
appeals.
In response to a question about release of information concerning
promotions, Dr. Knotts noted that last year promotions were reported at the
June faculty meetings of the various schools.
Af·ber · th(-l formal reports . were given, miscellaneous items· were·. considered.
Caml?J:l.ll.Jhsm£!.2ID2-.£...Plan.
Professor Birr asked about the status of our
Campus Academic Plan, which 1.1ras discussed at the Senate meeting last December.
Dr. Collins indicated that he and Dr. Fiser discussed the format of the Plan
with the Central Office last week~ but that tho de"l:.a.Lls of the Plan have not
yet been taken up with Central Office. Dr. Tibbetts said that the University
Senate passed a resolution calling for the plans to be distributed to the
campuses.
Chancellor Gould said that the Central Office will give release
dates for the plans.
Teacher B&~~ment Billg. Professor Brita Walker, a campus representative
of the New York State Teachers Association, said that the Association is
backing legislation which would i.mprove retirement payments of those in the
New York State Retirement System.
'l'he bills, if passed, would provide for
better death benefits, and in computing the pensions to be paid, would allow
the State to average the last three years of earnings before reU:rement, rather
than the last five. Mrs. Walker moved that the Secretary of Faculty Senate
send the following telegrams to Anthony Travia and Earl Bridges, respectively:
"The Faculty Senate of the State University of New York
at Albany, in the best interests of the education of the
students of New York State, recommends the passage of
teacher retirement bill, Assembly No. 6445, and requests
Speaker of the Assembly Travia to assist in accomplishing
-4-
this action."
"The Faculty Senate of the State University of
New York at Albany, in the best interests of the
students of New York State, recommends the passage
of teacher retirement bill, Senate No. 5113, and
requests the Honorable Earl Bridges to assist in
accomplishing this action."
The motion was seconded.
A discussion ensued around the question of whether
the Senate should take a stand on political issues. It was pointed out that
these bills are concerned with faculty welfare. Also, the University Senate
has set a precedent, as it has become involved with the Taylor Law and other
matters.
The motion was passed, by a small margin.
RecognitiQU_Qf th~ Senat~Work_qf_Dr, Fis~. Vice Chairman Knotts spoke
of the great contribution that Vice President Fiser has made to the Senate
during the past year, as he so ably and tirelessly served on several of its
major councils and committees, and Dr. Knotts moved that the Senate express
its appreciation to Dr. Fiser for his work in behalf of the Senate.
The
prolonged applause of the entire Senate indicated unanimous approval of this
motjon.
ruJ...Admi§sion of Disa~ntag~~ud~. President Collins said that
at present we have 565 students whose family incomes are at the poverty level.
Of these, 80 come from families whose taxable income is less than $1,800 per
year. However, few of these students are Negroes. It has been illegal to
ask for race, color, or creed on application forms, but now we are actively
recruiting Negroes.
We have about 125 applications for the College Opportunity
lProgram, and may be able to accept about 60 students from this group. It is
estimated that training these students will cost about five times as much as
the expenditure for the regular student.
We shall get only seven or eight
students through the New York City College Bound Program.
1Ne shall probably
be able to take in a little more than 100 disadvantaged students this fall,
from all sources.
Dr. Collins noted that we need to place more emphasis on the training of
teachers of the disadvantaged.
Work on this phase is being done by the
American Council on Education Program, the Institute for Educational Problems,
our Workshop for Instruction of Teachers of the Disadvantaged, Adult Basic
Education, and other special programs.
But much more needs to be accomplished.
S~ifting Cgg£erns of §tBde~t~· President Collins spoke of the changing
patterns of student interests to which the new Senate should address itself
during the coming year.
He said that student concerns have shifted over the
past few years from social problen1s, such as alcohol on campus, dormitory
hours, etc., to academic problems, such as grading systems, faculty
appointments, etc. Students are most vocal at the moment about matters of
fall course enrollments (being closed out of major and second field required
courses) and of tenure of faculty.
They are asking to be given a voice in
-5-
problems of faculty tenure, and are requesting that a committee of students,
faculty, and administrators be appointed to study the present system of tenure,
and its relation to the principle of academic freedom.
In particular, they
are asking for a full explanation of why an associate professor in the English
Department is not to be given a continuing appointment. President Collins
told the students that he would give reasons to the individual concerned, but
would not make public any statement that might be damaging to the faculty member.
Dr. Collins told the Senate that he has reviewed each of the 62 cases of
faculty who will complete a term appointment one year from now.
He reminded
the faculty that when a person is given a temporary or a term appointment, he
is given no guarantee that he will later be given a continuing appointment.
If a faculty member feels that he has a grievance, there is machinery available
for hearing the grievance case.
The pressure of the press or of students is
not a part of the grievance procedures.
E~cognition of the Ex~Qytive Q~mm1~~e Work of ~notts. Dr. John
Gunnell, on behalf of the Faculty Senate, expressed appreciation to Vice
Chairman Walter Knotts for his leadership and devoted efforts as Chairman of
the Executive Committee of Faculty Senate. A well-deserved round of applause
followed.
This last meeting of the 1967-6$ Faculty Senate adjourned at 4:40 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,

Violet Larney
Secretary, Faculty Senate
To:
Faculty Senate
From:
Executive Committee
I.
Article II Section 1. 6 of the By-Laws charges the Senate
with the responsibility of reporting annually to the faculty. The
Executive Committee proposes that, as was done last year, it
prepare and issue the report and that the report this year consist
of three parts:
1. a summary report of the Senate's actions.
2. a brief supplemental report from the
Chairman of each Council describing the
continuing administrative functions of
his Council.
3. a critical assessment by the Executive
Committee of the way in which the Senate
is working out.
II.
In its meeting on Monday, May 6, the Executive Committee
devoted much of its time to a discussion of the way in which the Senate
is working. Here are the criticisms on which it agreed.
1. Amongst some faculty members there seems to be little
interest in the Senate. Part of the reason for this lack of
interest, though certainly not the whole reason, might be in
the lack of communication between the Senators and their
constituents. Since the by-laws define the school or college
as a constituency, undoubtedly such communication is
difficult: in a large school the qccasion for the Senators
/
:
1
..• ;,:,
....
to meet their constituents as a whole is rare and 1 furthermore,
since the initiative for getting reactions to senate proceedings and
defining problems with which the Senate or its Council may deal
lies not with one Senator but with a large number, even these rare
occasions might pass unused .. To overcome this difficulty the
IDxecutive Comm.ittee urges each Senator to ask for time in his
department meeting to discuss Senate affaris, to post the Senate
Minutes, and where necessary to devise plans to talk to meetings
of his school.
2.
In creating and empowering Council to administer its concerns, the
Senate gave to the Council on :ITaculty Affairs a number of charges,
ranging from considering prol1lems of academic freedom and pro~
fessional ethics to sponsoring faculty soc:i.al activit:i.es. Such a
range is too great for one Council to embrace; obviously it creates
a problem in appointments: an faculty members are interested in
academic freedom and professional ethics but all are not interested
in ·social activities. Furthermore by its nature, planning for social
activities is contim.1ous; consequently there :i.s a danger that the
Council will, in effect, be defined by its continuing activity and
not be visible as the body which talws u.p grievances. 'rhe Executive
Committee recommends that the duties and responsibilities now
assigned to the Cotmcil on Faculty Affairs be split between two
councils, one assuming those related to grievances and to problems
of academic freedom and professional ethics and the other assuming
t:hose related to social and charitable activities.
3.
In cr·eating and empowering Councils to administer its concerns,
the Senate ordered that with the exception of the Council on F'aculty
Affairs, the ·chairman of each Council should be the chief admini-
strative officer concerned with the rnatters with which the respective
Council deals, The Executive Committee recommends that this arrangement
t?.E;l changed, that the chairmen of Councils not be designated by virtue
of their administrative offices, but be elected by members of the
respective councils, subject of course to Article II, Section 6. 3 of
the By-Laws, which provides that the chairmen must be Senators.
.
In matters of organizing themselves other than the choosing of ehairmen,
. ' .
the Senate under the present arrangement gives its Councils a
long measure of freedom; they are empowered, for instance, to
name their own committees and designate the chairmen of these
committees. It would seem appropriate, then, that the Senate allow
the Councils to further freedom of electing their own chairmen and
thus determining for themselves the most effective way of proceeding.
4.
rrhis year the visits of two outside groups have provided the occasions
on which the Executive Committee has stood back and tried to make
some assessment of the way in which the Senate was working. Amongst
the meetings of the Executive Committee, this one, presumably our
last, has been the only one which. has focused discussion directly on
this p:roblen:,l Aware of the pressur•e of time, this Committee neVBrtheless
urges future Executive Committees to consider the general workings
of the Senate earlier and more often than we have done.
5.
Finally the Executive Committee wishes to enter a plea for restoring
a lost voice to the Senate. For the last two years the elected Secretary
of the Senate has acted as secretary to the Executive Committee. This
practice has meant that in both the Senate and in the Committee the
Secretary has been all but silenced in the scramble to get clown what
was being said. The Committee recommends that the elected Secretary
of the Senate not be the secretary for the Executive Committee.

STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT ALBANY
Report of the Council on Faculty Affairs
Meeting of May 6, 1968
1. Esther Cook reported that a nurse on the podium does not appear to be
practical at th:~ .. ~ time. Faculty Handbook procedures are to be followed in case
of accident.
2. Virgil Zimmerman suggested that there is still a great deal of dissatisfao ...
tion with the parking facilities and enforcement of parking regulations.
The
Council recommended that he write a letter to the Se . .,ate urging an in depth study
of parking facilities, problems and future plans.
J.
The council discussed the problem of honoring retiring faculty members.
4.
New guidelines in handling--:.tfie flower fund were presented by Zirgil
Zimmerman.
Action was delayed until fall.
5.
The problem of faculty dues was discussed. Virgil Zimmerman estimated
that 50% of eligible faculty have paid.
The Committee on Collections has been
waiting for defin1.tions of faculty by the Faculty Senate Committee on Nominations
and Elections.
In the absence of final action by this group, we have included a
temporar.y definition of faculty for the Committee on Collections in the following
recommendation.
The Council on Faculty Affairs recommends that the Faculty Senate
approve the fo~lowing policies for the Academic Year 1968-1969.
A.
Regarding the "Collectj.on Day" as authorized by the Faculty
Senate in May 1967
Henceforth the collection of faculty dues and other dues
and contributions handled by the Council on Faculty Affairs be
separated from the University-Wide Joint Appeal Campaign and
that the Council on Faculty Affairs be authorized to conduct
its campaign at such time and in such manner as may be judged
to be most convenient and in keeping with the dignity of the
University.
B.
Amount of the Annual Contributions Requested by the Senate.
The amount of the Annual Contribution authorized by the
Senate to be levied for the Academic Year 1968 ·1969 is $3.00.
C.
Excluded from dues requests, but invited to participate in
social functions:
1. Adjunct and part~time instructors
2. Visiting or other temporary faculty
J. All faculty and staff who are currently also degree
candidate students in this University.
4.
Persons with technical or technical~clerical responsi-
bilities employed on a project or other limited tenure
basis.
5.
Persons, who though technically administrative staff, have
duties which are exclusively concerned with the maintenance
and operation of the physical plant and the business management
services of the University.
Meeting of May 13, 1968
1. Cathryne Sivers, after consultation with the Council members,
appointed a committee to serve as an investigatory group for faculty
grievances. This committee consists of;

MEMORANDUM
Members of 1967-68 Faculty Senate
DATE:
May 20, 1968
FROM:
Council on Faculty Affairs
(l) This communication raises anew the issue of the adequacy and convenience
of parking facilities at the campus so that the Senate, as the collective voice
of the faculty, might express Hs judgment as to whether the present and the pro-
spective future situation is--or is not--sufficiently serious as to warrant urgent
study and prompt corrective action on the part of University officials.
( 2) The Senate is, therefore, invited to consider and endorse, or reject, a
recomm.epdation to the President and other responsible officials that they undertake
a canvass of faculty attitudes on the parking problem and in the light of such
knowledge take steps to assure the provision of both interim and permanent parking
arrangements which will be acceptable to the majority of the faculty and staff.
(3) We are aware that the faculty is of two minds on this subject,
One group
seems reasonably well s.atis.fied with the present campus parking design.
Obviously
the minimization of parking around the podium enhances the esthetic appeal of the
campus and provides exercise for practitioners of a sedentary· profession,
Others,
however, feel strongly that they are grossly inconvenienced b~y the lack of con-
venient parking adjacent to the podium.
We sense the intensity of their unhappiness
but have not undertaken to ascertain the size of this discontented group.
·w·e assume
that the avail.ability to many faculty of convenient parking in the so-called 11sand-
lot" to the Southeast of the Campus Center now provides a safety valve and fear that
closing off this area to parking will provoke .a .. major crisis in the Fall if some
other convenient temporary parking is not provided.
(4) Parking facilities are of interest not only to the faculty, staff and
students but also to those who come to the campus on business or as university
- 2 -
guests.
Members of the Council have at various times been advised that some of
these temporary visitors regard the campus parking design as irrational if not
downright inhospitable.
(5) The Council on Faculty Affairs does not consider it a part of its respon-
sibility to make specific suggestions with regard to changes in the. campus parking
facility design or to und.ertake a systematic survey of faculty· sentiment. It has,
however, deemed it advisable to take explicit note of the rumblings. of discontent
which have come to its attention, to urge that this matter be given serious and timely
consideration and to suggest that whatever possible corrective action be taken
promptly in order to forestall the development of divisive and damaging discord.
( 6) Before acting on this proposal members of the Senate might w·ish to know
of plans for future parking as they have been communicated to this Council.
(A) With the construction of the West Podium Extension currently antici-
pated for completion by the Fall of 1972, underground parking will be provided for
approximately 500 vehicles.
(B) A "parking garage" is planned. for approximatelyl,OOO vehicles in
roughly the area now used for student vehicle parking Northeast of the Infirmary.
This might be available for use in 1972-73.
When the Podium Extension is complete
this parking facility will be within 500-700 feet of the new end of the podium.
(c) Underground parking for approximately 500 vehicles will be provided in
the East Podium Extens.ion w·hich is expected to be completed in 1974 or 1975.
Plans
currently provide for the landscaping of the area between the biology building and
the East perimeter road as soon as the area is vacated by construction crews and
for the period prior to construction of the East Podium Extension.
(D) Current plans do not provide for any enlargement of the parking lots in
front of the Administration and Fine Arts buildings or for the location of a parking
lot immediately adjacent to the Physics and Campus Center buildings.
A temporary
faculty-staff lot is c.antemplated for the area between the Indian Quandrangle and
the Chemistry building but the size and useab:i.li ty of that area during the construc-
tion of the Indian Quandrangle is uncertain.
