Resolution Concerning Tuition Remission
for Assistant Instructors, Teaching Assistants, and Research Assistants. Approved by Faculty Council at its meeting on April 21, 1997, and
transmitted to President on April 21, 1997. Approved by President on June
28, 1997 with the following message:
"I said at a meeting this spring as well as elsewhere that I believe that
additional financial support for graduate students is critical. Thus, I
agree with the goal underlying the resolution. I was not able to support
state legislation regarding a tuition remission since new funding for The
University was not forthcoming from the Legislature that would have covered
the financial loss that The University would have faced due to a tuition
remission."

1997, with the following message:
"I approve the two recommendations in the legislation.
I understand that I am not being asked to endorse the rationale statements
in the legislation.
"I support the appointment of an ad hoc committee to: assess the need for
additional athletic facilities; review the mission of intercollegiate athletics
at The University; evaluate whether current policies and practices are consistent
with that mission; and, recommend any needed changes in the mission or the
strategies to achieve it. I understand that the committee will report during
this academic year. The legislation provides that the committee will be
appointed by the Chair of the Faculty Council, with my consultation. I ask
that Professor Gilbert work with Vice Provost Ohlendorf and Vice President
Sharpe regarding my recommendations for committee membership.
"I have discussed with the Faculty Council Executive Committee the status
of approved capital projects for intercollegiate athletics. I do not plan
to recommend approval at this time of additional capital projects unless
a project is required for the UniversityÕs compliance with the Title XI
settlement Court Order."

Modified by Amendments to Changes in the Handbook of Operating Procedures
for the University of Texas at Austin Covering Periodic Evaluation of Tenured
Faculty, D&M 21841-21847 (D&P 16387-16400), which was approved by
Faculty Council at its meeting on September 15, 1997, and transmitted to
President on September 16, 1997. Modified and then approval recommended
by President and transmitted to Chancellor on September 26, 1997, with the
following letter:
"I write to request approval of the proposed policy for The University of
Texas at Austin on Periodic Evaluation of Tenured Faculty. I enclose the
proposal as it passed the Faculty Council on September 15, 1997 (D&P 16387-16400).
I also enclose a draft of new ¤3.14, UT Austin Handbook of Operating
Procedures, that formally incorporates the proposal into our policy
documents.
"I have made one minor change to the proposed
policy at the end of paragraph 7 (D&P 16390). Paragraph 7 provides that
for administrators whose administrative appointment is reviewed every sixth
year, the evaluation under the proposed shall be scheduled in the same year.
The change I have made provides that these two reviews shall be coordinated
to the extent possible.
"The proposed policy was drafted by the UniversityÕs Committee of Counsel
on Academic Freedom and Responsibility. The Committee worked with my staff
in drafting the policy. I am most appreciative of the CommitteeÕs diligence
in finalizing the proposed policy to meet our deadlines.
"I have approved the policy and now ask your approval. We believe that it
is consistent with the UT System Guidelines for Periodic Performance Evaluation
of Tenured Faculty that were approved by the Board of Regents on November
17, 1996, and amended on August 14, 1997. The issue of termination of a
faculty member is not written into The UniversityÕs policy but we understand
that the UT System Guidelines and RegentsÕ Rules and Regulations are controlling
should it be determined that a faculty member should be terminated based
upon a review made under the policy on periodic evaluation of tenured faculty."
