Whereas the accreditation visiting teams must include faculty, and
Whereas the Commission has in the past appointed faculty who are newly hired administrators, acting or interim administrators, and
Whereas the visiting teams are consistently made up of a majority of administrators;
Resolved that the Academic Senate urge the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges to appoint representatives to accrediting teams who maintain faculty status for the duration of the appointment, and
Resolved that the Academic Senate reaffirm its position calling for a faculty majority on the accreditation visiting teams.
