Actually feeling excited and I was like, did we actually do that or just doing that thing where you make up a plan in your head friday, and you're like this would be great. Yeah.

9 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:04:51.449 --> 00:05:18.360
The infusion module is the way that we're gonna start doing this and you keep traveling, we're gonna have to this is the 1st time you've had anything in the Ford why don't do that, but then.

Could you.

11 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:05:23.643 --> 00:05:53.121
Together to do with one promising and one promise would be like oh one promises start with this kind of coherent setup whatever. It's like ok.

12 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (1443676928)
00:05:53.121 --> 00:06:01.340
Yeah. Maximum, right? Yeah. They do it.

13 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:06:01.340 --> 00:06:33.465
At some point throughout that class, which is how you also I think track it is that you say So what happens to the my understanding is that it was actually developed as something that every department was supposed to do for its own natures. And that departments got overwhelmed with staffing and not to mention that it was intended to be a full experience that integrated them into the university but instead.

14 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (1443676928)
00:06:33.465 --> 00:06:42.942
Hey, and you know it's great it's great to advise her to have that.

15 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:06:42.942 --> 00:06:58.783
Here it is.

16 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (1443676928)
00:06:58.783 --> 00:07:05.924
I'm crazy.

17 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:07:05.924 --> 00:07:15.209
Nope, just one.

18 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:07:15.209 --> 00:07:35.209
I know I'll. You see, I was messing something. So this is the wording in the browser. Let me just close those, close that tab. Okay.

19 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:07:35.209 --> 00:07:59.459
See if you're in the Webex on the right. It would not. Oh let me see. Oh, it will. Okay, it will be nervous, will not. Every time I do that, see, and I try to maximize? No.

20 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:07:59.459 --> 00:08:16.169
That's why I went back in and.

21 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:08:16.169 --> 00:08:34.709
So Alright this one here.

22 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:08:34.709 --> 00:08:54.709
While we're doing that I'm gonna get the microphone definitely yeah you're right. I think it was running twice. I don't really want to run it from the web because Somebody will say, hey, I couldn't do.

23 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:08:54.709 --> 00:09:22.789
The CEO came and I wasn't trying to run it, run it on their web. Let me see. I know, I know that. I trust you.

24 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:09:22.789 --> 00:09:48.199
Yeah state of the art around here. I can't I can't beat Corey and Kerry though over at Kobay. They're, they're the kings. No, NO NO NO. The kings of Cobay them, right? No, they just know their stuff. They're just like me, they worry about things now working.

25 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:09:48.199 --> 00:10:12.779
I do sound checks in here. See, see it's like there but you won't. That's why I went in again. We have got to get that to work. Yeah, I know I tried to maximize that. How about double clicking though alright so click on it.

26 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:10:12.779 --> 00:10:28.949
Double click or do you want me to, do you want me to click this? That doesn't matter. Just click this and then the bar right there. See. Okay then see why.

27 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:10:28.949 --> 00:10:48.949
Okay, I see it's not even I can't tell you what I can't tell you what it thinks it's doing. It's crazy. Yeah, and this is the 1st time. So what you think.

28 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:10:48.949 --> 00:11:05.609
So should I do you think I should go through here? Oh I'm sorry. This is just like a bad day? No, not really. Can you say you always be so coolly called like 5 min.

29 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:11:05.609 --> 00:11:24.089
I'm not sweating and I'll be able to hear sweating. What are like I don't know if the way I wanna get this too ready for me. Next door because.

30 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:11:24.089 --> 00:11:44.089
It took its microphone. Hi. Hi, how's it going? How are you? Good to see you. Didn't even look up. Hi Bart. I'm wonderful. Did the directions work out? Perfect? You're welcome. Hi Peter.

31 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:11:44.089 --> 00:12:13.819
Even though I combined, I combined them. This might be. Yep, that works. Alright, now I'm ready to play around with that sound checking yeah it's oh this is not the main mic. That's not the Sound checking. Hear it, you can hear it, but It's only.

32 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:12:13.819 --> 00:12:45.229
The the wall behind that half, it's like divided. It's really, I don't know I don't know what that's I'm not gonna worry about that. Question was you can sit back here. So myself. You need my Do you need this do not disturb me for 30 min, create a space, create a person, can the test. She's in charge of presenting.

33 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:12:45.229 --> 00:13:03.749
That's fine. It looks like it's there, so that's fine. I just want to say I have a copy with me so I was out. Thanks for calling.

34 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:13:03.749 --> 00:13:25.909
I have some people that I think might be able to. Every time Webex opens messaging. I don't really. Show building window for calls and my printer all of my time in my office went completely.

35 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:13:25.909 --> 00:13:45.909
I mean literally my computer was like flashing out going black and going off and then my printer wouldn't stay on, it kept going off now and then for the faculty center office because that's not where the I did that yesterday. I gotta put it.

36 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:13:45.909 --> 00:14:05.909
Everything so I only have a you don't have it printed out the agenda do you that's the thing that I think I'll just refer to this and stay back here with you during the meeting. Okay. Otherwise it'll be awkward too. Can we do some administrative or not?

37 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:14:05.909 --> 00:14:25.999
What mics are we using today? We're here. So here's the main one I did bring the mic from the other room, but when they hit combine, these are set up still with a divider as if that's up. The sound on this one is on that side. You can just barely hear it, but it this is still working.

38 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:14:25.999 --> 00:14:47.759
We have a we have a different issue right now. The Webex isn't connected or it's permanently minimized. It's been that day. We set a conversation about how do we do this?

39 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:14:47.759 --> 00:15:10.699
No, 6 min. So theirs did get simplified.

40 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:15:10.699 --> 00:15:30.699
Their their process what their checklist got floating because some things are required I had just unchecked that myself. They just sent an email. I didn't get one out like yesterday or just.

41 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:15:30.699 --> 00:15:59.039
If you want to go through I think to get it to them by January 20, it's all got to be you gotta line up your dogs and assume that everything is correct. And that's what they said if it comes to us by their life and we have to kick it back, there's NO way.

42 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:15.419
That's why nobody's signing up for that community either. Right. Especially faculties that are getting smaller where people already have service kind of overload.

43 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:16:15.419 --> 00:16:35.419
It's just almost everything, which is library and their faculties are tiny. Actually, I can't get the application to quit. So when we close out and I think so.

44 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:16:35.419 --> 00:16:58.039
It's fine. It's ok we're gonna have to still. Right.

45 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:18.039
It's gonna be a minute. And then it's on the left side. We don't have any way of communicating the folks online. Can we communicate real quick? It looked like there were people in the meeting. Can can you join it from where you're at and just send a message in chat. Maybe 5 min. Okay. Great, we have such a busy 10 min.

46 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3945067264)
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:27.989
5 min late. Yeah, I didn't mean to like just seven. Yeah.

47 "Heberle, Renee J." (3287125248)
00:18:28.829 --> 00:18:48.829
Hi everyone, this is Renee from the room, 1000 collier, and we are having technical difficulties connecting on the computer in the room. So if we could just ask for a bit of grace for about 5 min, we're hoping to get it going.

48 "Heberle, Renee J." (3287125248)
00:18:48.829 --> 00:19:00.542

00:31:31.169 --> 00:31:37.670
All right, President Everly, we have a quorum.

144 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:31:37.670 --> 00:31:53.969
Alrighty, thank you so much Raghav and thank you everyone for s that. 

Recognition of the Contributions of Deborah Coulter-Harris: Before we start our meeting, I would like to turn the floor over to Dan Campara to say a few words about our dear colleague, Deborah Culter Harris.

145 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:31:53.969 --> 00:32:13.969
Deborah is a long time senator, executive secretary and chair of our faculty Senate undergraduate Student affairs committee. Hi everyone. Being asked to say a few words about Deborah is both an honor and a very sad thing to have to do. Oh, he's.

146 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:32:13.969 --> 00:32:43.639
Never envied the people who had to talk about someone they cared about, but I always appreciated the fact that they took the time to do it. I knew Debra for a long time since the early nineties when we were grad in grad school together, and then we became colleagues at the old community and technical colleges, part time instructors. Somewhere along the line she diverged into the CIA while I continued my academic career here. And we met.

147 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:32:43.639 --> 00:33:03.639
Up again and somewhere along the way we went from being casual acquaintances to colleagues, to friends. Deborah had a big personality and an even bigger heart. She loved her students and she cared deeply about the university. And really over the last few years I really learned how much she loved faculty Senate because she.

148 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:33:03.639 --> 00:33:19.979
Would call me so excited over something that she had learned. And what was funny is I've spent half my career on Senate and I just never shared the enthusiasm that she had NO offense, I love the body as well, but, she just.

149 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:33:19.979 --> 00:33:39.979
Kinda took things to a different level and she appreciated things in on a level that, that sometimes I wish I could get there. One of the things I'll always remember is how Deborah would call the role. She had such a really distinctive, powerful and beautiful boy.

150 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:33:39.979 --> 00:34:02.449
And I always loved hearing it and especially the occasional times she would butcher a name, but it wasn't very, she would really work hard to learn people's names. And one something really pleased Debra, there was only one word that she would ever use. And of those who know her best know fabulous. That was Deborah. She brought the energy, she brought.

151 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:34:02.449 --> 00:34:20.459
About the personality and she brought the heart wherever she went. She only gave a hundred percent to everything she committed to, and I'll always remember that I sometimes marvelled at how much energy she had despite being nearly 20 years my senior.

152 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:34:20.459 --> 00:34:35.789
I'm going to miss her as a colleague, but I'm much more than that. I'm going to miss her as a friend, and I think it's great that the faculty Senate took time to recognize her because it was, I really think in my conversations with her, this was.

153 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:34:35.789 --> 00:34:50.848
This is what kept her going and made her stay at the university even after her illness, and so I know that I will miss her and I am sure many of you will as well.

154 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:34:52.288 --> 00:35:09.569
Thank you Dan. Yeah. Really nicely said. I know there was a huge absence in the room come January of spring of 26 when Deborah had to leave. So I'm sure there's even a bigger hole in the English department, so thank you.

155 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:35:09.569 --> 00:35:30.589
II. Approval of the Agenda: Our next item is to approve the agenda, which we do through our present agenda, so with NO, I have a couple of changes, they're very minor, so I don't think a motion to amend is necessary. One is as you will notice, our pro host from Paradise is not here today and I forgot that when I put out the original agenda that.

156 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:35:30.589 --> 00:35:50.589
Got distributed, and secondly, we have a brief report from our academics regul academic regulations committee chair, James Oberland, so those two will balance each other out in terms of our timing. So with NO further ado and with those two changes, are there any objections to the agenda?

157 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:35:50.589 --> 00:36:11.719
Online. Very good age agenda is approved and 

III. Approval of the Minutes: Our next thing is to approve our minutes from 29 September, and I'll just take a second to say that the minutes are one part of our record and then if you go to the faculty center website.

158 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:36:11.719 --> 00:36:29.459
You will find the transcripts with detailed notes and the recording, video recording, audio recording of the meetings with detailed notes and timestamps. So if you're looking for an issue or looking for something, that's where you find it. But if there are NO objections, NO changes to the minutes.

159 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:36:29.459 --> 00:36:48.419
IV. Executive Committee Report: Then we will move on with our agenda. All good? Online. Okay. I will now give you a very brief because we have so many exciting, more exciting things to do on our agenda today. Faculty executive.

160 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:36:48.419 --> 00:37:07.499
Faculty Senate executive committee report. The ohio legislature will be in session after the midterms. The strengthening Ohio Civics Act SP 461 is in the Senate Hire education Committee having been introduced by Senator Jerry Sereno over the summer.

161 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:37:07.499 --> 00:37:27.499
Senate Bill 461 would harden the terms on which the civics centers mandated by SB one are funded and governed across the five universities where they exist. Further, it would give complete curricular control over the newly required civic's course to a five member.

162 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:37:27.499 --> 00:37:50.299
Board consisting of the directors that under the bill would also be named deans of independent colleges of the civic centers. So I encourage you to inform yourself about SB 6461 it will impact all of us and participate in the process in whatever way you see fit. Proponent, interested part.

163 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:37:50.299 --> 00:38:10.299
Be an opponent testimony will NO doubt be heard on very short notice and the Senate office will try to put out dates of committee hearings to faculty in time for you to put together a paragraph or two about your position on this bill and send it in as testimony. Letters to the editor are always effective, talk to your students.

164 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:38:10.299 --> 00:38:37.110
Discuss this in, in public. It's gonna happen quickly if it when it when when legislature comes back. An update about the discussion we had about sent an explanatory email shortly after our meeting, so thank you Bill. A couple of highlights, and if you'd like me to forward that email with more detail, I I'd be happy to as individuals, but we're trying not to pack up here.

165 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:38:37.110 --> 00:38:57.110
Inboxes. Bill described the study of potential adoption levels of co pilot while uptake was good, it remains a question about whether it should be included in the annual budget and built into our computer systems. Further, and I think this was a point of confusion, complimentary access was extended to 3000 faculty and staff for July and August.

166 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:38:57.110 --> 00:39:17.110
There may have been a misunderstanding that this would last through the semester. So Bill is looking into remedies for that disappointing short circuiting of access to the 3000 folks who received complimentary access in the summer months. Bill also informed us that IT went through the Provos office in Dean's offices to identify.

167 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:39:17.110 --> 00:39:37.110
To be part of the pilot program in its different stages. IT did not choose those included or communicate directly with them about the program, so if it magically appeared on your computer, there might be an email hidden in your files explaining why. It was on my system for a little bit and I ignored it and did not review my emails to see if I had been in.

168 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:39:37.110 --> 00:39:57.110
Formed about why it appeared and disappeared, but that's part of the explanation there. As a follow up to the conversation about AI more generally, Jerry, Natal and Anjun Sabahual co chairs of the university Task Force on AI and Promos McKinney, will present on the work being done by the task force in Senate on 24 November.

169 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:39:57.110 --> 00:40:18.080
FSSCFSEC has determined it best to do the faculty senate Dean evaluations as our bylaws mandate in order to sustain our independence over the content and the data. This by NO means signals any issues with the provost provi process of review.

170 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:40:18.080 --> 00:40:46.610
The standard operating procedure developed and the transparency of the review process being carried out when deans are up for renewal by the pro boast is very welcome. So please keep an eye out for the surveys. Our faculty affairs committee will be reviewing surveys, looking at you Emman. Hello Emman. He's not looking back, used in the past in distributing them within the next several weeks and please help us clarify two colleagues who might also receive materials from the pro.

171 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:40:46.610 --> 00:41:16.920
Post office as to the difference between the evaluations. Responses to the faculty Senate survey will be analyzed, NO raw data, and shared with the provost with deans being evaluated and with their college faculty. Faculty Senate will evaluate three deans this year of pharmacy libraries and JH case. Faculty Center president Elect Sharon Barnes and Renee Heavily met with president Halloway. He shared that the search for vice President of enrollment is moving on schedule for a person to be in place at latest by February.

172 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:41:16.920 --> 00:41:36.920
Given all the contingencies we know happen in a national search and interim assistant vice president for financial aid has been appointed and discussions about when to run that national search are ongoing. The other highlight of that meeting was to learn that upwards of a $9 million in interest payments on funds sitting with foundation are now being.

173 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:41:36.920 --> 00:41:48.450
Reinvested in university operations. So we look forward to hearing more about those initiatives. Anything else from FSEC?

174 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:41:48.450 --> 00:42:08.450

V. Reports:
Any clarifying questions or immediate issues? Alright, I am really pleased to turn the floor over to Dean Barbara Ritter and Dean Melissa Gregory. They are the chairs of the all important core curriculum task force and they will give us an update about their work and informast to the right.

175 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:42:08.450 --> 00:42:30.530
Solution that will go to the board in December. 

Dean Barbara Ritter, Dean Melissa Gregory: Thank you for having us here today. We appreciate your time and all of your efforts. We are happy to give you an update on the process you recall about a year ago November. The Provos was in front of this esteemed group and said we'll have a.

176 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:42:30.530 --> 00:42:49.650
A group of faculty that are in charge of a refresh of our university core. Part of that of course mandated by changes in state law, but also part of that is, it's really good continuous improvement practice for us to consider what we do occasionally. So, please.

177 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:42:49.650 --> 00:43:09.650
If you haven't got it memorized like we do now, HB 96, the mandate is for by December our board of trustees will review and revise the general education curriculum to support Ohio's goals for educational attainment and workforce development. This is actually a general wording of HB 96, the very specific wording is for the board of trustees.

178 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:43:09.650 --> 00:43:29.650
We'll review and evaluate our general education core by December. And so this is the deadline that is most pressing that we are up against right now, but the words are review and evaluate, so it doesn't mean we have to post changes at this point in time for this November meeting of the Border of trustees, which will meet the 31 December.

179 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:43:29.650 --> 00:43:49.650
Guideline. We do have guideline or we do have deadlines that will follow that, that will require probably more intensive action, a little bit of a deeper dive from the board of trustees. Not only will they have formal or formally completed the evaluation, but we will have brought our proposed changes and modifica.

180 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:43:49.650 --> 00:44:22.220
Locations by 31 March 2027, so that will be not too far away, but definitely not at the November deadline for the review and evaluation of the current core, which forget me December deadline will happen in the November Board of Trustees meeting, review and evaluation of the current core. And our final deadline will be 30 June 2027. Well, there will be a final resolution to the chancellor summarizing the specific curriculum changes that we've agreed to. So the good news is, if you go to the next slide.

181 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:44:22.220 --> 00:44:42.530
We've started this process and we've been working through the faculty Senate core curriculum committee to understand what we have and apply to the different law and the necessary changes that we see are forthcoming. Today we're here with you. We wanna show what is required by the law. We wanna answer.

182 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:44:42.530 --> 00:45:02.530
Any questions? I mean we're not the legal experts I will say, but we've been charged presenting to the board of trustees at the November meeting so we can talk about what we're gonna present to them, what's required at that point in time, and then obviously the future deadlines. For the December deadline in the November meeting, we'll share with the board of trustees our current core, the.

183 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:45:02.530 --> 00:45:22.530
Components of the core, just as if you open the catalog, right? This is publicly available. It's on our website, open the catalog, took very, very quick presentation to the board. Here's what we have for you to evaluate in five or 10 min. And of course they're gonna be somewhat aware of the law and the reason why we're doing this, which is core.

184 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:45:22.530 --> 00:45:42.530
Related to the academic program review guidelines that came out last August as well. We will summarize as we will also continue to do for you, the process we've been using of meetings and iterating drafts of our current core to come to an agreement and make sure there's a wide inclusion of voices from all colleges across our campus.

185 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:45:42.530 --> 00:46:02.530
And then today and through the board of trustees, we're gonna share in November sort of a foreshadowing of what's to come as we prepare for March. So we are happy to do that with you right now, of course you know much more about the core, as many of you are delivering it, you have very intricate knowledge.

186 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:46:02.530 --> 00:46:30.260
So it does include a range of disciplines, it's required for all majors that are in our undergraduate population, and it is consistent right now with our crediting regional crediting body, of course, and we'll follow the requirements by ODHG. It includes the OT 36. So this is actually the parameters which mean that as we propose changes going forward, in many ways, as it comes through our faculty committees and faculty.

187 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:46:30.260 --> 00:46:59.930
Senate, we are innovating around the edges, right? We must have these 36 credits in social sciences, and humanities, natural sciences, and math. These will continue and we must have them and I think we probably would agree that these students need a foundation and things like reading and writing arithmetics, so, that will be unchanged. It's still required by state law. That is the limited flexibility part. Sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you. No, NO, that's.

188 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:46:59.930 --> 00:47:19.930
Hey, I'm only trying to do my part so thank you and forgive my voice I'm having my October allergy session as as happens every year. So I just wanted to pick up on Dean Ritter's point, which is that OT 36 does in fact kind of lock down the core in terms of.

189 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:47:19.930 --> 00:47:39.930
Courses distribution areas. There are some opportunities I think for us to keep it updated though, and that's part of the point of this is that just because something is locked down in terms of a disciplinary area or a course doesn't mean that the content of that course doesn't update quite regularly, and I think all of us do this all the time.

190 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:47:39.930 --> 00:47:59.930
This is just the states reminding us that we need to be doing this in some key areas. So just as a very quick reminder, and to Dean Ritter's point, these slides are probably the ones that the board will see or likely what the board will see. I can't promise that they'll be exact, but this is a essentially a draft version, so we will show them how.

191 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:47:59.930 --> 00:48:19.930
So the core breaks down, everything in this core, the six credit hours of composition, the credit hours of math, social sciences, social and behavioral sciences, arts and humanities, and electives. Those are all OT 36 distributions. So again, the, the areas are kind of what they are as are the credi.

192 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:48:19.930 --> 00:48:39.930
Then the University of Toleto Core has some additional requirements that may also count toward the above areas. The 1st two diversity of US culture and non US diversity, those are courses that the University of Toleto decided for itself.

193 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:48:39.930 --> 00:48:59.930
What it would like in the core, but so is not to create degree prop program or rather degree pathway problems, we decided to do them as essentially what's called double dips. The majority of those courses are double dips although not all of them. This is very helpful for students who come directly from high school and have.

194 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:48:59.930 --> 00:49:19.930
Extremely tight degree pathways. It means that they can get in essentially a double dip course and meet the requirement. Transfer students still have to take it. And then we have this new course American civic literacy, which when this was introduced a year earlier before, the final kind of ODHE recommendations came through, they.

195 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:49:19.930 --> 00:49:39.930
Decision made by faculty very quickly I think was to try to get this into a double dip space, right? So that it could be folded into students pathways without creating any other issues. And in those cases it's double dipping again with either arts and humanities or with social sciences depending on which course you're teaching, taking.

196 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:49:39.930 --> 00:50:00.020
Okay, the updated ODHG gen Ed guidelines, there's a lot of continuity there again general education 1st of all remains prioritized and required by the state of Ohio, which is important. It's also continuing to be delivered through OT 36 distribution.

197 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:50:00.020 --> 00:50:20.020
Areas and credits. The list of knowledge and capabilities that general education is supposed to create for students has been essentially updated and tweaked a little bit. You'll see, e.g., artificial intelligence there as a, as a kind of skill.

198 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:50:20.020 --> 00:50:40.020
Here it's put in the quantitative section, but it I think we could all agree it might go other way, you know, other places that's been inserted into the core, the civic's part we've already taken care of that and then entrepreneurship and innovation. These are all parts of the these need to be infused into the core, right? So we have to figure out what are some good ways.

199 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:50:40.020 --> 00:51:00.020
To do that, and what are some creative and innovative and fresh ways things that maybe some of the other Ohio publics are not doing, bearing in mind, again, that we're fairly locked down. Barb I'm gonna hand this to you to talk about the process. Yeah, please. So we did host an open forum or two open forums that had the same content at the end of last spring and we sort of.

200 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:51:00.020 --> 00:51:20.020
Showed what we had done and where we were at at that point. It was, this was our retreat that kicked off that spring semester. Yeah, look, there's Mark right there. You don't even see him around anymore, do we? But, that was an interesting point to collect data from faculty and administration around what our core is.

201 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:51:20.020 --> 00:51:40.020
What a core could be. We did then start working through the Senate core curriculum committee for most of our iteration of drafts then and bringing in other stakeholders as needed such as people teaching FYE. We also met with advisors and we've been co coordinating with assessment via the provise office to just try to.

202 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:51:40.020 --> 00:52:03.230
To ensure that all these pieces that need to be coordinated are, we did student faculty surveys, which was very interesting data and we brought that in through the committee for discussion. We also then of course this is what it says. The AI task force Leon was there through much of that semester, and the two town halls is what we ended with with the open forums at the end of spring. There is.

203 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:52:03.230 --> 00:52:20.940
There's a website and there is an ongoing QR code. We took feedback from faculty at every one of the stages when we had different types of events, including the open forums and then would bring all points of feedback back to the faculty Senate Corp curriculum committee as we talked about which direction to move with the drafts.

204 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:52:20.940 --> 00:52:40.940
So, what we've seen, and we just met today, this is very fresh on our memory, my memory anyway, where we started with the iterative draft that we had finished with on 6 May last year, and we started talking about some of the pragmatic aspects that Mel and I had considered through advising and through assessment and.

205 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:52:40.940 --> 00:53:00.940
As we try to take this to the next stage, which will eventually result in a proposal that the faculty Senate is going to going to see coming through the appropriate channels through the committee. Priorities in this regard, so something that we talked about and agreed today in terms of, the draft proposal.

206 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:53:00.940 --> 00:53:20.940
Is to merge the institutional student learning objectives in the core learning objectives. They're very similar, and if we didn't tell you, you might not even notice honestly, because they are very, very similar already, and this will just this will will reduce the work of Elena.

207 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:53:20.940 --> 00:53:38.850
Very much, so she's appreciative of this effort and we mapped on the old with the new. I'm happy to show you that analysis, but this is one thing that has emerged that will actually make some of the administrative burden less going forward. Something that was also very clear was that.

208 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:53:38.850 --> 00:53:58.850
The faculty data and the student data said a 1st year experience. And every time I say this I say that is very much differentiated from 1st year seminar. So the students in particular, they put 1st year experience near the top of the things they wanted to see in their core and a seminar at the bottom.

209 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:53:58.850 --> 00:54:18.850
Like, then whatever that word means to them like NO, we don't want that. Yes, so they want an experience, which was interesting cause I talked about that retreat and we talked about different brainstorming different models and that type of experience came out of that from faculty as well, but we also saw it was listed very important in the faculty survey data.

210 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:54:18.850 --> 00:54:38.850
So we're trying to determine how we can go forward with the 1st year experience. Today we actually decided this is hot off the press. Today we actually decided through the core committee that we can't make all the decisions about a 1st year experience right now on this time frame, so we're gonna propose to create a task force that will then do a deep dive and we'll buy ourselves.

211 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:54:38.850 --> 00:54:58.850
Some time just because this is an important thing. We have to decide what we're gonna do with it in a proposal, I think ultimately to the board will be we will create a task force for this and so that there can be a deeper dive and buyer ourselves a little more time. We will also connect learning with application. We have proposed and you would have heard an open forum that.

212 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:54:58.850 --> 00:55:18.850
We've pushed this as a major requirement. This is essentially already happening, right? That there will be a send application through the majors occurring, and this will be a piece in the current proposal as part of the core. Incorporation of AI entrepreneurship and workforce readiness has been incorporated in the discussions we've gone along, and how to do that was a.

213 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:55:18.850 --> 00:55:40.910
In a discussion today still, and I think that we will get to a place ultimately through committee where we will have the resolution, but I will tell you in the main model, the main model I have memorized, AI was an introduction in that 1st experience, right? Critical thinking about AI, what is AI ethics and AI? How do we use it at this university? We can introduce them to sort of.

214 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:55:40.910 --> 00:56:01.520
Of our policy once we create it and to look at the syllabus so they can see the instructor's policy, right? We can talk about these things right when they get here. And then we are discussing right now, I think we've agreed upon a major designated class in AI that how we're using this in my major, whether my major is nursing or philosophy or finding.

215 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:56:01.520 --> 00:56:21.520
How was it being used? And what's under discussion is what the May model had was a requirement for designated course in the core, where we might approach this in a more flexible way and that's under discussion in the committee currently. So you can see that decisions aren't completely finalized but are going through I believe.

216 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:56:21.520 --> 00:56:46.100
Appropriate channels, you tell me, and also doing our dangingness to be inclusive of all voices, we really would love if, if more people would engage, give us feedback on that QR code, we're happy to, I mean, i won't speak for Colin who's chairing this committee, but I would assume he'll accept visitors to the committee meetings, you know? We would love for a representation of voices as we.

217 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:56:46.100 --> 00:57:06.100
Talk about these really important issues at every single meeting, how are we refusing AI cause clearly it'll come to the bigger group, but for fleshing it out ahead of time and there's more voices included, we'll have an maybe an easier discussion toward the end. So Mel, you wanna go ahead and talk about the next steps? Oh, NO, I'm sorry should I talk about the next steps? It doesn't.

218 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:57:06.100 --> 00:57:26.100
Matter I think the next steps are relatively self exploratory, which is that we are finishing collecting recommendations and thoughts about how we can do this in a way that makes sense. Again priorities being sticking to OT 36 as per required making sure we're infusing our new core with updated skills and requirements.

219 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:57:26.100 --> 00:57:46.100
And then also getting it done by the deadline, which is again 31 December for the, so the board will essentially have these slides, here's our core, right? And they'll get to review and think about that. And they'll do that at the November meeting and then we are going to have to bring changes to them that are proposed and say, here's the.

220 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:57:46.100 --> 00:58:06.100
How University of Toleto is being responsive and updating its core and then there's a kind of final resolution about the fact that that happened in 30 June. This is the state essentially saying us we want general education to be really current and updated, and we think here are some things that you know needs to be factored in here and we're gonna actually add.

221 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:58:06.100 --> 00:58:41.345
Ask your board who's now kind of signing off on all curriculum to hold you responsible for having made some of those updates. I think that's where we are. I think that's it. Happy to take any questions? It's the only difficult part for me today is that I know the address are still iterating like we don't have here is the answer of the proposal you will see eventually, but we do know what is going to the board in November. Did these concerned about that? I can pass you wrong. Okay.

222 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:58:41.345 --> 00:58:56.960
I was just wondering if any changes are made that change courses or programs or the catalog. How does that interact with our catalog deadline and when will these changes.

223 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:58:56.960 --> 00:59:16.960
Has actually be happening in the classroom. Okay, good question. It is a good question. The catalog deadline is early for faculty senate. So I think that was gonna be part of our discussion for related to upcoming meetings with the core curriculum committee is to see if we could actually wrap this up this.

224 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:47.741
Semester come up with a decent set of recommendations that could be entered into Kim? Yes. Is that where you were thinking? So when part of the discussion in the committee today was that the tools they might Can you hear online ok when the when members of the senator are speaking? Hi everybody. Where's the camera at? Anyone want to unmute and just say yes? They fell asleep. Sorry. Great, thank you.

225 "Brian Fink - CHHS" (385035264)
00:59:47.741 --> 00:59:51.708
Good, thank you. I knew Yakoff would be awake.

226 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:59:51.708 --> 00:59:58.890
So, and, and part of what we decided in committee today actually, we have to have.

227 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
00:59:58.890 --> 01:00:18.890
We have to have a proposals for how we're handling those areas to the Board of trustees before that March deadline, right? But it doesn't say changes must be implemented in fall 27. So we may need to have decided what changes we're going to put in Kim by.

228 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:00:18.890 --> 01:00:40.287
That point in time, but I think though, given that the specific law didn't have a date by which changes must be implemented, we will have a little flex. That is my rate of the law as an isle psychologist, so you know how good that is right?

229 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:00:40.826 --> 01:00:59.908
Any other questions from the, what is the number? I don't know what that's about Credits for engineering oh that's a prior question. Okay Jay, did that question get answered?

230 "Ahalapitiya Jayatissa (Jay)" (1854003200)
01:00:59.908 --> 01:01:11.812
Not actually, so can you, can you tell me? It was not clear. Engineering the science or what what how do you define?

231 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:01:11.812 --> 01:01:31.850
So is engineering in the university core? Is that the question? It is all students, is this working? All students take the core. Engineering is in the core, and so those students with tight degree pathways like engineering, nursing, education, and others were definitely kept in mind.

232 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:01:31.850 --> 01:02:00.650
During the discussions because we know that we can't just keep endlessly adding things to the core and expect those students to graduate on time. It might be a different question. I think that it's not engineering engineering doesn't teach the core. They don't have core classes in their. But engineering students all take the core. All university students have to take the core classes, but they are primarily taught through JH case because of the disciplines and the foundational sort of.

233 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:02:00.650 --> 01:02:25.130
Absolutely in math. Yeah. But all students take them. Okay. Thank you, thank you. Anything else? Okay, well, let's thank our teams for doing such extraordinary work. Yeah. Definitely happy to follow your advice if you want more open forums, anything you suggests you mean to get.

234 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:02:25.130 --> 01:02:45.130
The word out and properly communicate. Yeah, Dean Ritter is inviting all of us to, and you can do it through the faculty Senate office email if you choose or to the faculty senate executive committee members that you know of or simply to your senate member. We will append this presentation to our minutes.

235 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:02:45.130 --> 01:03:05.130
As always, so you will have access to all of the good information that was offered today and review it and please do get involved. This is something that again impacts every single student. And so every single faculty should have a hand in it and have a look at it. And if you want to see the full iteration of drafts, if you want to see the full iteration of drafts.

236 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:03:05.130 --> 01:03:34.520
That Colin has it and yeah I mean, it's an open book and where did we start? What are the discussion do in every single date we met and where are we now? Thank you very, very much. Thank you. Next we I've separated out Rob, but the the two pieces of your presentation, but I because one is more like a report and then the next will be asking for a vote, so if you could just.

237 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:03:34.520 --> 01:03:46.046
Give us a sense of progress that the UGCC has been making on improving the workflow and establishing criteria for review. Then we'll move on to James Oberlender and then come back to you for the vote.

238 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:03:46.046 --> 01:03:50.308
Senator Padilla, Co-Chair UGCC: Okay, can everybody hear me ok?

239 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:03:50.308 --> 01:03:53.026
We're very good in the room, yeah. Okay.

240 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:03:53.026 --> 01:04:10.320
One. So the changes we've had to the criteria that we're using to assess the Chem proposals are as follows. I'll give you everything that we look at. Not everything is is that important, but we put of course the course name.

241 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:04:10.320 --> 01:04:26.640
And title of the course in and then the contact person, and that's for Lynn so that if she has to contact that person she can. And then we look at the change, whether the course is a new course or a change in the course, and that's where we can discern why the course is in Kim.

242 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:04:26.640 --> 01:04:46.640
And I think, Renee asked me about the twelve proposals that we're looking at today and half of them are for modifications to the course learning objectives, so that's fairly common, but it's not always everything. We still are looking at new course confirmation and overlap, so.

243 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:04:46.640 --> 01:04:53.910
If you have a new course, we want to really know, did you contact other departments?

244 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:04:53.910 --> 01:05:12.360
That you think might have an overlap. And so that, that is what the new courses have to do. And then the/course differentiation, that's for a usually a 4000 level course that also is a graduate course, and then what we want is to make sure that the.

245 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:05:12.360 --> 01:05:24.000
The assignments and evaluations are different. And then of course we look at the CLOs that are in Kim to make sure that they're both measurable and active. We look at the course schedule in that.

246 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:05:24.000 --> 01:05:42.687
Is offered in Kim and the reading list. We don't really evaluate the reading list, but we want to see that it's there because that's one of the new criterias that we're looking at. So that's, that's how we're addressing the, the proposals. And I hope that makes sense. Is there anything else Renee you need me to talk about?

247 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:05:42.687 --> 01:06:02.509
I don't think so, but we did everyone, every faculty member got a letter from the UGCC in their email box with the criteria and description of what is happening to try to make sure that our courses, that your courses get in. Right now the deadline for being on the radar of the UGCC is.

248 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:06:02.509 --> 01:06:22.509
March second and there's a date of 21 January 20th in that letter for colleges to review, but that might be changing given schedules and stuff. Right. So, but keep an eye on that on We're trying to work with the colleges and with those councils to get their scheduling such.

249 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:06:22.509 --> 01:06:53.490
That not everything just happens at the deadline and we don't have this fire hose again and we can do a proper review throughout the academic year rather than just flooding it at the end. Is there, are there any questions or comments for about this about the This has been really, really hard work on the part of the UGCCC, they've been working closely with provost office and with Kathy Zimmer to make this happen and to, you know, just improve our curricular oversight, which is really the core of our existence.

250 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:06:53.490 --> 01:07:04.041
Barbara Miner has a question. Yeah. Thank you. This maybe tangential Rob.

251 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:07:04.041 --> 01:07:06.591
But, with the new.

252 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:07:06.591 --> 01:07:25.350
Slos or CLOs, whatever you wanna call them, any of those that are missing. My understanding is that has to go through the entire process again, right? And it's moving from college council up through faculty Senate curriculum council, right?

253 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:07:25.350 --> 01:07:50.846
Yes, that's my understanding too. Now what we did last, last academic year towards the end because we were, we wanted to get as many courses approved as possible. I think that we, and this was Lynn's idea and I thought it worked brilliantly is she did not send them all the way back, she sent them to the Dean's office, so that the decision, the, the changes can be made there and then they would get to us much more quickly.

254 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:07:50.846 --> 01:07:51.548
Okay.

255 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:07:51.548 --> 01:07:55.229
But that was, that was in an ad hoc basis, right?

256 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:07:55.229 --> 01:08:17.346
And again, maybe I'm asking the wrong person, but if a an approved course is missing slos, those all have to be added. Does the entire process of adding the syllabus and everything else have to happen or is there a shortcut?

257 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:08:17.346 --> 01:08:37.910
So Lynn also would contact the contact person and we don't normally do this, but if we'll do it to push things through at the very end, right, to meet the deadlines, Lynn would contact them and ask them to, go ahead and.

258 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:08:37.910 --> 01:08:45.184
Send her the CLOs she would put them in, but that's not something we normally do. Okay. Does that make sense? Okay.

259 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:08:45.184 --> 01:09:04.700
Yes. Thank you, Barbara. Any other questions? I'm not seeing anything online, so we're gonna move along cause we have even more to do in our agenda. So James, are you on the call to offer a brief update?

260 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:09:04.700 --> 01:09:19.400
On academic regulations? Is James Overlander on the call?

261 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:09:20.010 --> 01:09:25.590
Oops, ok.

262 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:09:25.590 --> 01:09:42.630
Well, what we will do then is go back to Rob and we will know like That was beautiful now I love that. We'll go back to Rob and do the curricular review.

263 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:09:42.630 --> 01:09:45.829
Okay.

264 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:09:45.829 --> 01:10:01.679

 

VI. Old Business: None 

 

VII. New Business: 

Senator Padilla, Co-Chair UGCC: Alright, so we have twelve Kim proposals for consideration. We, last Friday we looked at 18, so we sent six, we will be sending six back to have them improved and.

265 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:10:01.679 --> 01:10:21.679
Renee asked me to, sort of, expand upon what we offered here and tell you why these proposals were in the mix. So I'll go ahead and do that as well. So I'm gonna have to read that off of a sheet that I have because I didn't put it on the PowerPoint. Alright, so anthropology 4200 his.

266 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:10:21.679 --> 01:10:53.579
Three and theory and anthropology. It is to update the CLOs and on a personal note, I love the reading list for this course. I'm always happy when I see cloud leavy Straws in a class. And then we have bio engineering 1410 and bio engineering 1420. Bio engineering 1410 is Freshman Design innovation one. Bio engineering 1420 is freshman design and innovation two. Each of these courses have been.

267 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:10:53.579 --> 01:11:09.329
Put in Kim because they're increasing the credit hours from one to two. So it's a modification of the credit hour. And then bio engineering 2200 bio materials, bio engineering 4410 bio engineering design project one.

268 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:11:09.329 --> 01:11:26.609
And bio engineering 4420 bio engineering design project two, each of these three bio engineering courses are also having a credit change from three credit hours to two. So all five of these bio engineering courses are going to now be two credit hours.

269 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:11:26.609 --> 01:11:46.609
All right. And then we have business law, business law 3550 legal and safety compliance issues in human resource management and business law 4580 detection and prevention of deception business practices. Both of those courses were put in can.

270 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:11:46.609 --> 01:12:08.789
To update the course learning objectives. Next we have business administration, 1020 AI fundamentals and decision making tools. That course was an overhaul of the course fundamentally changed that course, and it was updated to prepare students for AI in the workforce.

271 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:12:08.789 --> 01:12:28.789
And then we have business administration 2000 career development one and business administration 3000 career development two. Both of these courses were put into Kim to change the or update or modify the course learning objectives. And.

272 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:12:28.789 --> 01:12:55.068
Then we have chemical engine environmental engineering 3400 process dynamics and control and this course was also placed in Kim to update the course learning objectives. Are there any issues with these or can't is faculty send it ok with approving them so that we can send them to the Provos office?

273 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:12:55.068 --> 01:13:00.606
A comment in the chat. Can you just mag.

274 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:13:00.606 --> 01:13:20.447
When number of credits reduced in course level, how does it reflect in program level do the add remove courses? Yeah, I don't I don't have any idea. We just, we just made sure that they said that that's what they were doing and they actually did it. So Scott, can you answer that? Yeah, I was gonna say.

275 "Molitor, Scott C." (4142468608)
01:13:20.447 --> 01:13:33.090
This will be part of a program modification so anytime you do change credit hours and required courses, that usually goes along with a program modification. So I assume that will be coming next.

276 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:13:33.090 --> 01:13:36.027
Okay, thank you.

277 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:13:36.027 --> 01:13:54.709
Are there any other questions? What we're, what we're aiming for, and again, the work of the UGCC is a lot and so what we're aiming for is to have a web, a spreadsheet where there are some notations and some, knowledge about the courses that they're presenting that you can view in advance so that you than.

278 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:13:54.709 --> 01:14:14.709
And and as in the past when we didn't have such the fire hose, we were able to actually discuss some of the changes and sort of figure things out if anybody had issues rather than just looking at names of courses and saying, yeah, we better do that because we don't have time to talk. So we're trying to figure all that out as we move along in this new order of things. So hopefully next time we'll have a more complete.

279 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:14:14.709 --> 01:14:31.590
Spreadsheet of what is actually being changed in the courses and why and then we can proceed from there just with questions and answers in the meeting rather than Rob having to go through everything that they've already gone through and repeat everything again. Is that, does that sound right Rob, like an aspiration?

280 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:14:31.590 --> 01:14:38.784
Yeah, yeah. And I will Lynn and she'll she has this she works on the spreadsheet, so she'll send.

281 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:14:38.784 --> 01:14:51.647
Oh, great, great. So may I have a motion to approve the 12th classes recommended by the UGCC or you ask for that, right? Yeah. Yes. Okay.

282 "Semaan, Gaby" (2242792448)
01:14:51.647 --> 01:14:54.305
Motion.

283 "Rob" (1815319552)
01:14:54.305 --> 01:14:57.345
Is there, are there any issues with what.

284 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:14:57.345 --> 01:15:25.229
Motioned and second motioned and motioned by Gabby and second by Jeff. Thank you all in favor. Please say yes in the chat, opposed, please say NO and abstaining, please say abstain, and in the room, can we have an affirmative vote?

285 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:15:25.229 --> 01:15:45.229
I know vote, an obstension vote, looks like we have a unanimous vote. Excellent. Thank you. We got our 1st round of curricular reviews for our congratulations. 

VIII. Presentations: 

 

Dr. Rafael Mata-Garcia and Senator Minor: Thank you. We have two really wonderful presentations now we've.

286 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:15:45.229 --> 01:16:09.359
Invited Barbara Miner, Professor of Art and Rafael Matthe Garcia, Professor of molecular cell cellular and developmental biology to describe and tell us about their interdisciplinary research initiative, and this is part of something new that Senate is doing this year and it that is inviting faculty to present on what it is that they are working on so we can get to know each other a little bit better and see all the great work that's going on.

287 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:16:09.359 --> 01:16:24.929
So the 1st part of this, Rafael is gonna start with and then I I get to jump in. Sounds good.

288 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:16:24.929 --> 01:16:44.929
Yeah. Thank you. Well, thank you for the opportunity. I'm just gonna talk about an event that we have been organizing since 2017, and this is a collaborative effort.

289 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:16:44.929 --> 01:17:04.929
Between, my lab and department, and the main campus Department of cellular molecular and developmental biology and the School of visual arts. And, this is an event which bridges science and art. So it's a collaborative.

290 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:17:04.929 --> 01:17:33.499
Therefore that brings together our interests in science and the artistic mind that some scientists have. So, I like Barbara, I don't have any artistic skills, but I'm a microscopist and usually what, what we, what we do when we take pictures is we sometimes paint cells in different colors and we can create sort of this beautiful.

291 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:17:33.499 --> 01:17:51.839
Images that sometimes we look for scientific value, but sometimes we look for its sort of beauty or artistic value. And that's always been sort of in the back of my mind when I'm taking pictures in, in in the lab and.

292 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:17:51.839 --> 01:18:11.839
Several years ago, we came across an opportunity from, the American society for cell biology to organize regional meetings that were sort of unique in some aspects. So we had to propose an application to be funded for this particular.

293 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:18:11.839 --> 01:18:37.009
Scientific endeavor, and one of the things that we propose is to do a science art meeting and then we reach out to school of visual arts because one of the things that I wanted to do is to not do it in our building and move people out of their sort of comfort zone that they go, can go back to their labs in between sessions and things like that and.

294 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:18:37.009 --> 01:18:52.319
We created these meeting calls to leaders and with the sort of intention to connect art and science to bring these two sort of interest together and just put together an event that combined both things.

295 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:18:52.319 --> 01:19:10.169
So, we started in 2017 and, we've been doing this yearly with the exception of the two years of COVID and I'm gonna tell you a little bit about what this meeting is about and what, what we have been able to achieve over the over the years.

296 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:19:10.169 --> 01:19:30.169
So what makes this meeting unique? So, 1st of all, this is a true scientific meeting. It brings together, researchers in the region that are interested in cell biology loosely associated with a cytoskeleton. We typically bring a.

297 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:19:30.169 --> 01:19:49.529
Around over a hundred attendees from around 15 different universities in the region. And this includes places as far as University of Chicago, Northwestern University of Pittsburgh, Higher State, Michigan, Casete Western, Wayne State, a lot of the universities in the area.

298 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:19:49.529 --> 01:20:09.529
It, it it involves talks both from established investigators typically from far away. This year a keynote speaker was from UCSF. We had a keynote speaker from Harvards, from Penn, from different places. It also involves talks from students.

299 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:20:09.529 --> 01:20:36.569
This post dogs, including both graduate and undergraduate students from our university on all the universities involved, and then it also involves a poster session. It all it has always been free, and this is important from the contribution of the School official Art of the venue, and also the generous support from sponsors as well as the university.

300 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:20:36.569 --> 01:20:56.569
So, the venue is unique, and this is one of the key things of this event. We're doing in the School of these fantastic buildings from Frank Gary, and I cannot emphasize enough how much people love to present their work in between sculptures and the work of.

301 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:20:56.569 --> 01:21:16.569
The art of different students and the studios and being in a different environment than than than they are every day. So you can see how this represents a unique opportunity for people. So the venue is already an incredible selling point for this, for this meeting. So we always invite scientist artists.

302 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:21:16.569 --> 01:21:40.049
And what is a scientist artist? It's a scientist that somehow evolved an interest in doing art as a parallel career or as a career itself. So this is one good example see if this plays hopefully, ok, it's not gonna play. But, this is an artist. Janety was a scientist that learned animation, and.

303 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:21:40.049 --> 01:22:00.049
Developed essentially evolve into a lab that only does animation and she animates scientific processes using scientific data and in this case is an HIV virus here that we all movie playing and uses real world data for her animations and.

304 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:22:00.049 --> 01:22:26.659
Essentially she worked in collaboration with multiple scientists to animate her processes with real scientific data. Another example is Bob Goldstine scientists from UNC Chapel Hill. He started screen printing posters to advertise the seminars that were held in his department.

305 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:22:26.659 --> 01:22:46.409
And he will use again references to this particular scientist's work and animate and print them different ways. In this case e.g. a discovered of GFP, which was cloned from jellyfish. So that's a novel price winner Martin Chelsey.

306 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:22:46.409 --> 01:23:06.409
You probably know Anthony Fauchi. Or he will use, e.g., this particular speaker develop a particular technique in microscopy, so if you put this in the dark, it will sort of glow in the dark. So most of his posters were clearly designed to introduce some aspects of it.

307 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:23:06.409 --> 01:23:23.129
Particular researcher. Bob became an artist, who exceeds his work outside of his lab and also became an adjust professor in the School of Art where he teaches a class that is biology and art.

308 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:23:23.129 --> 01:23:39.239
And then this year we have more Mir from the Stowers Institute more also blended art and science and became the art and illustrator of.

309 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:23:39.239 --> 01:23:57.719
The lab, she works for at the Stowers Institute but also teaching drawing classes and ways to connect science and art. And that was the latest speaker this year. So we also involve students in multiple ways. So this part as part of a collaboration, we.

310 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:23:57.719 --> 01:24:12.809
And this is a an ongoing process to involve students of the School official Earth in this science sort of enterprise, if you will, and we do it in different ways. One way and which we've done many years is.

311 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:24:12.809 --> 01:24:28.829
The students of the School of Art create our pieces based on scientific images. Some of the ones that I show you, and these are three examples here. These three images were represented as science as art pieces by the students of the School official arts. That's one.

312 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:24:28.829 --> 01:24:48.829
Yest cells in a3D sort of incredible piece, this painting. Again, you can see there are semblance but also the unique interpretation and then again a nice one. These are only three examples of the many that we have done. We usually exceed.

313 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:24:48.829 --> 01:25:09.299
With these pieces in the gallery next to the conference room. We also involve a designer, so every year we contact the other department and they recommend an undergraded student that help us design the theme for every year. So each year we're just involving a different student. So this is 2000.

314 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:25:09.299 --> 01:25:29.299
2320 04:25, and 26 every year a different design usually inspire, they come and talk to us, they ask us what we do, and they interpret, you know, whatever we show them in their own way and bring us a beautiful design that we use for our west.

315 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:25:29.299 --> 01:25:55.669
Site for our flyers, we usually make t shirts as well, so people will take a t shirt with some of these designs. Alright, so we also have an image competition, where people send these beautiful microscoping images, and then the way we do it is professors in the school of Ishalart will judge them based on their artistic value, nothing to do with that scientific value. So again, I'll show you a few of them.

316 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:25:55.669 --> 01:26:06.150
Them over the years, so just beautiful images, and we usually give them a price.

317 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:26:07.007 --> 01:26:22.039
We also, this meeting also created opportunity to interact with scientists. So I'll give you two examples. One example is I interacted with from the Savannah School of our time design which who also designed a.

318 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:26:22.039 --> 01:26:39.029
The 2022 theme but also help in this case my lab to develop the logo for the lab. So we worked with him back and forth, just discussing different ideas. This is one example and then eventually he helped me put together.

319 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:26:39.029 --> 01:26:59.029
What we use now as a logo for the lab. So since a beautiful collaboration, just bouncing back ideas of what we do and how do we visualize it. The other one is with two professors of the School of Visual arts. After one of the meetings, the keynote speaker was the editor in chief of working.

320 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:26:59.029 --> 01:27:19.029
In journal, the molecular biology of the cell. He asked me if I can identify artists that will design a cover for their journal, and I reach out to Barry Witter and Eric Ziggler in the School of Art, and they work together with scientists in one of that published one of the articles in that particular issue and.

321 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:27:19.029 --> 01:27:42.889
Decide a beautiful cover for MBOC. We also got to publish an editorial which all of us as authors explaining and it was applie title from Pipette to palette. That's just beautiful. And you know this beautiful image that Barry and and and Eric design was also in collaboration with the scientists.

322 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:27:42.889 --> 01:27:58.919
The, the image that they use is that one that sort of shows some, something called vesicles in the cell, which they represented as marvels, so they took these beautiful pictures of marvels and they just put together this very, very nice cover.

323 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:27:58.919 --> 01:28:18.919
So, find a couple of things that I'm gonna mention because before taking giving it to Barbara is this is a student organized meeting. So it provides students leadership skills. Every year there's a different team that involves a graduate undergraduate students that take care of everything. Inviting the speaker contacting me.

324 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:28:18.919 --> 01:28:31.679
Sponsors reserving hotels and flights, posters, food, everything is usually managed by the students. These are pictures of some of the different teams every year.

325 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:28:31.679 --> 01:28:51.679
And I'm gonna give Steve who's gonna talk about two efforts. Yes. Tangential. Thank you. Tangential to this project, independent of an similar.

326 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:28:51.679 --> 01:29:26.479
To connections where art and science work together and I'm gonna talk like a scientist for just a minute, even though I'm not one. I've been married to one for 53 years, so I think that counts as something that's rubbed off. So because I get to be long winded most of the time I'm gonna read something quickly. Cross pollination is a good thing. It creates a stronger, more resilient outcome, often enhancing the most positive traits. Well, in breeding depression or self.

327 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:29:26.479 --> 01:29:44.789
Reduces fitness and limits success. Sounds like science, doesn't it? It does it. Okay. Therefore, I propose that exposing students and faculty members cause you can see it's students and faculty members both in these two disciplines.

328 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:29:44.789 --> 01:30:04.789
To different approaches to creative research is a profoundly beneficial enterprise. Curiosity and a creative impulse underpinned both art and science practices. The need to do basic research, whether materials research are strictly conceptual research, paired with the need.

329 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:30:04.789 --> 01:30:24.789
Need to test ideas and hypotheses takes different forms in each of these disciplines. Tools and techniques can vary, but by stretching the ideational horizon to engage with the other discipline, each discipline is pushed further through the cross pollination. And that's what Raphael is showing.

330 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:30:24.789 --> 01:30:57.739
Us in the success of cellular. And what I'm gonna briefly show you with just a couple of the many cross pollination and interdisciplinary projects our department has embraced over the years. Siloed learning has been replaced in our department with integrated learning. Our students are encouraged to bring experiences from other bodies of knowledge and other disciplines into their art practices to help them bulletproof their creative lives making them more able to pivot as they pursue their careers.

331 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:30:57.739 --> 01:31:26.999
So if you want to hit that next one, this is something that's been going on for quite a few years and, it's called wearable conditions. And we have shown this work on the medical campus. We've shown it in the Toleto Museum of arts glass pavilion. We have shown it in spaces in downtown Talito. This project is a semester long.

332 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:31:26.999 --> 01:31:46.999
Assignment, which is a student chooses a disability, a condition that affects both the individual and potentially the caregiver giver. The student has to research the condition, and then they have to interpret it as a wearable piece of work.

333 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:31:46.999 --> 01:32:06.999
Work. It involves potentially working with, some of the medical folks we've we've connected students directly with medical folks, and they learn about what toll it takes on, not just the person who is suffering from the condition, but the people around them.

334 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:32:06.999 --> 01:32:32.479
Them and the medical practitioners as well. Now, we're using everything from laser edchers and sewing machines to CNC routers and three D printers. They are learning deep research. It is an iterative process, so honestly, I don't think science and art are very different. I think it is.

335 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:32:32.479 --> 01:32:52.479
You come up with an idea, you've got to test it, you have to work with the materials, and then when everything goes down the toilet, you have to figure out what to do next. And so this is sort of a, to me an example of one of those experiments, right? And you gotta come up with something at the end.

336 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:32:52.479 --> 01:33:22.609
So this, the students write about this, and then we have created actual hard cover books with these images and the writings that students do about the work. So the next one, thank you. This is really exciting. I don't know if you know about biodesign challenge. It is an international competition that is held in New York City.

337 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:33:22.609 --> 01:33:42.609
It has the taking place at Moma. It's taken place at Parsons in New York City. In 2018, I think 17, forgive me, 2017, my department was asked by a student, hey, we'd love to try this.

338 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:33:42.609 --> 01:34:02.609
Competition, and I said, we have NO money, but yes, we'll do this. So we scrounged everything. We begged for help from other departments, biology and engineering. We looked at the suite of options, so bio.

339 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:34:02.609 --> 01:34:22.609
Design challenge has a suite of options. You can choose a real world problem to solve. The students have to go in and they work as a team of art students and engineering or biology students, it can be other students as well. But this 1st year out, we're like.

340 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:34:22.609 --> 01:34:44.149
We don't know, really what we're doing but we're doing it. So our students then broke up into teams internally. They competed here with one another. We had external judges come in from industry, from other departments and jury what they were doing. We sent a team to new year.

341 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:34:44.149 --> 01:35:05.299
New York City and they took an award for field research. So two artists, two scientists took an award for field research based on, a modification of a beehive using a pest or nuisance species, the zebra.

342 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:35:05.299 --> 01:35:36.019
Muscle, right? From lakeury, two birds, 1 st, and I can go into a lot of detail cause I learned a lot about it. It was great. But that was like small and mighty and and we scrounged the money and put it together. Now, I've got figures on how much it would cost, so if any departments would like to help fund this, I would love to get them there again. But it is the, this magnificent cross pollination again among departs.

343 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:35:36.019 --> 01:35:53.969
Apartments that put our students, our kids would never been to Detroit in New York City competing against MIT, Rottgers, McGill University. It is amazing and we have since taken two other awards.

344 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:35:53.969 --> 01:36:13.969
So it's possible and and so I'm gonna stop there, but Rafael has, has supported this and helped push this cellular forward. Our students get to participate in it. And then they also say, hey, I designed this cover, it's.

345 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:36:13.969 --> 01:36:40.439
Real world application of their skill set and its mind blowing, and it shouldn't be done on the cheap, but it can be. That's it. Thank you. Oh, I think that there's one more. So you see how many people participated this year and are happy to take any questions.

346 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:36:40.439 --> 01:36:56.819
That is a truly truly amazing.

347 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:36:56.819 --> 01:37:12.629
Thank you so much for preparing that and for bringing it to us as Senate. It, yeah, I hope that we can all start sharing and do more to promote one another's work and we have to know about it 1st though. So David has a question.

348 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:37:12.629 --> 01:37:32.629
1st of all, I I wanna also thank doctors Garcia and and Minor for for this. This is fantastic, and I've known Rafaelle for.

349 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:37:32.629 --> 01:37:52.629
A long time and actually I wasn't aware of all of this, right? So, so I am really happy to, to hear more about this and in certainly in the college of medicine for our medical students, we just started a new pathways of of excellence in humanities. This is an additional long longitu.

350 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:37:52.629 --> 01:38:12.629
Total, a set of courses that our students can build expertise and, and experiences in art and humanities. And I would love to talk to you guys about how we could perhaps work together and and expand the the opportunities for the students.

351 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:38:12.629 --> 01:38:38.159
We've we've worked with Donna Woodson to do different different programs, different workshops with and it was fabulous. The, the students were surprised at how much they knew without knowing they knew it and how articulate they were about.

352 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:38:38.159 --> 01:38:56.369
Interpreting visual cues and it was really a great experience and, we're always open to basically get anything. That's, that's fantastic and even more important now that the museum is closed for a while, so, so.

353 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:38:56.369 --> 01:39:16.369
And just, Barbara, my wife is an artist and she, she worked in my lab for a while, not a scientist, as two 1st author publications and, and some of her work wound up as cover art for the journal that she published and so and.

354 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:39:16.369 --> 01:39:45.679
And Art and science have been aligned since, at least since the renaissance so yeah thank you The chat James says a terrific Utilito resource. Thank you for the presentation. Just asked to prepare a cover figure for a journal in which we will have a manuscription in November journal. The figure is set for publication, but we will approach you to.

355 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:39:45.679 --> 01:40:05.679
Whether optimize it for future use. I think this is a great use of Senate Time in part just because we are all interdisciplinary scholars in this room together. It's the only place where we all get a chance to like talk and see each other and of course Senate has its own work, but this is just something that adjacent could be could build on that work and build on our sense of community as facult.

356 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:40:05.679 --> 01:40:25.679
I think that was fabulous. Speaking of building on our work of community here, we have our very own Tom Moorland, which is so cool for something sort of completely different, but maybe he can draw connections. I'm not gonna try off the top of my head, but maybe Tom can draw some connections. Tom is the vice president.

357 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:40:25.679 --> 01:40:57.589
President and director of athletics, and he's just coming off of a fantastic homecoming weekend, so thank you very much and I'm gonna turn the floor over to mr. Morrin. 

Mr. Tom Moreland, Vice-President and Director of Athletics: All right, how's everybody doing? I want to make sure I'm sensitive of everyone's time. You are fine, you've got a good, you know, like I said, 30 min. Okay perfect. As president Hallway would probably tell you I'm usually not short on content, and so that's why I wanted to make sure to confirm that. So we'll, we'll jump into the next slide here. Just a, just a quick overview.

358 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:40:57.589 --> 01:41:17.589
Interview gonna walk through these kind of five or six subjects. Really my goal for this is just really build connection. I think relationships are incredibly important. It's something I I take a lot of pride in and really get to know who I am really as a person as I settle in here to the University of Tolido and my, my family settles in as well. And so go to the next slide.

359 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:41:17.589 --> 01:41:38.359
Here, a little bit about about who I am. So I, I grew up in Milwaukeee Wisconsin, I think Milwaukeee and Toledo I think they have a lot of similarities. A story I tell people a lot is where I grew up Milwaukee was kind of the equivalent of old orchard. I grew up three blocks from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukeee. My grandfather worked on that.

360 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:41:38.359 --> 01:41:58.359
Campus, he was the headmen's basketball coach during that period of time, just in higher education, you, you wore a lot of hats. It was certainly more than just, just coaching basketball. And so I was on that college campus as many days as I could be and a really a big reason why we're, we're my two parents. Both my parents were lifelong educator.

361 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:41:58.359 --> 01:42:18.359
Lifelong school teachers, and so pursuing a career in higher education going to be a college athlete was a topic of discussion in the Morland house on a regular basis. A story I would share is our family vacations always centered around visiting college campuses. And so, I mean.

362 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:42:18.359 --> 01:42:38.359
Assuming like a lot of you, our 1st family vacation, a great place to visit the summertime, it's underrated if you ask me is we went to southbend, Indiana. And that's what a lot of people do, right? And so just higher education and being involved with universities, both my parents really impressed upon me. A little bit about my professional journey.

363 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:42:38.359 --> 01:42:58.969
Growing up Milwaukee I was a I was a walk on baseball player at the University of Iowa. I'm proud to be a walk on baseball player, went to school on a, on a pell grant, came from a very, very humble background, lost my father at a young age, and so my mom being a widow and a school teacher's salary really had to earn my way through the University of Iowa.

364 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:42:58.969 --> 01:43:18.969
Loved that experience, I didn't I didn't play a lot. I was certainly there for, for culture, locker room, my studies, academics, had several former players and former student athletes on that team going to professional ranks, but then also do great things in life, and so from the University of Iowa, I did what a lot of 20.

365 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:43:18.969 --> 01:43:38.969
Three year olds do, Somehow I scrounded up scrounged up a few bucks and I booked a one way plane ticket to Australia. I navigated the the immigration system there. It was a life changing experience. I was so naive at the time with that one way plane ticket, if it didn't work out, I honestly don't know what i've done.

366 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:43:38.969 --> 01:43:58.969
And so I'm glad that it did. From there I really started my, my journey in college athletics and higher education. I worked at Arizona State university. I worked at the University of Iowa for seven years, really enjoyed that experience. I worked in fundraising the athletics department, but the way it's set up at the University of Iowa, it's a true advancement unit. You.

367 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:43:58.969 --> 01:44:18.969
Really serve the foundation there and then you serve the campus. From there I worked at Purdue University for seven years and then spent the last three years at the University of Illinois. Last thing about me personally, I've got a dynamic wife in Jen Morland. She's a she's an HR executive by trade, but she works for an incredible nonprofit organization.

368 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:44:18.969 --> 01:44:38.969
She works remote. They're based out of Lafayette, Indiana. They serve about 1200 people across a broad spectrum of individuals that have physical and mental disabilities. It's an organization that's been around for about 52 years. It's a, it's a, it's a passion for our family. It's great for both Jen and I to be able to pursue perform.

369 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:44:38.969 --> 01:45:05.120
Professional careers and things that we're really passionate about. Last thing I'll just touch on before I move on, why Taledo? I think I think it's a great community. Jen and I, we have a four year old and two year old place we wanna stay a long time really grow as a family here, raise our two kids. I think it's a great place to live. I also think when you see this institution, for me in my role, we get to impact our student athletes on a regular basis. This university's appointment.

370 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:45:05.120 --> 01:45:25.120
Been a pride for this community and just the leadership here. I, I really believe in words like integration, collaboration, development. There's one thing you see for me as I go through this, those three words I'll probably say a lot, but I think consistency is a really good thing and that that's why I've really enjoyed my time here so far and really just loved the place.

371 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:45:25.120 --> 01:45:45.650
So go to the next slide here. I think we might have skipped one. So just kind of some, some principles for leadership, and I have 1st on here twice and and that's really intentional. For me, my my leadership principles are just students 1st. Every decision that we make within the athletics department.

372 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:45:45.650 --> 01:46:08.630
How is that gonna impact our student athletes, but then all the students on this campus. There's a lot of decisions to make like a lot of you make, but really just having that student centered approach as we make decisions and really guide and try to integrate with the rest of the campus. People matter, I think that's where we're successful. That's why I think relationships are incredibly important. I learned from someone a long time ago.

373 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:46:08.630 --> 01:46:36.210
Relationships are kind of like muscles, the more you work at them, the really the stronger that they get. And this last part, I think this is really important for this group, institution 1st, and you could use words like collaboration, integration, and what I mean by that, the athletics department, I say department a lot, we're a part of something larger than ourselves, and so that's gonna gonna guide the way I lead in the types of decisions that we're gonna make in the athletics department.

374 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:46:36.210 --> 01:46:56.210
So a little bit about values, and so as I jump into values here, I'm gonna talk about values through our, our community, our coaches, our staff members, and our student athletes. And so really for my 1st few months, did a lot of listening. I think that's a really important thing, had public town halls. I think a lot of staff showed up to those several.

375 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:46:56.210 --> 01:47:16.210
Faculty members really believe in just open dialogue, I think that's important working in college athletics. And what I, what I heard from those listening sessions 1st on community student successes is really important to rockets. It's really important to the Utilito community into Northwest Ohio, important to our staff, our fans.

376 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:47:16.210 --> 01:47:36.210
And our alumni, we have a lot of pride. People take pride in this place. There's a lot of passion. What I heard from our community is really important to be visible, need to be on campus, need to be in the Tolido community, need to be in Northwest Ohio, but then also competitive excellence. And the reason why I say competitive excellence is I expect our programs to win at.

377 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:47:36.210 --> 01:48:07.790
Academically, to win personally, to win socially, but then also to win on the court, on the pitch, on the field in the pool and on the track. I really believe in a holistic approach. The feedback that I got from staff, including some of our our leaders on campus, collaboration. I think collaboration is gonna be a strength of ours. An example I would share with you guys when I worked at Purdue University, we had an incredible partnership with several faculty on campus providing real hands on experiences.

378 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:48:07.790 --> 01:48:27.790
For nearly a hundred students doing analytics projects, insights, and this was almost seven or eight years ago, the work that they did there really helped transform the athletics department, but it provided hands on learning opportunities to nearly a hundred students on campus every year. I would love to do that here at the University of Toleto. I've already.

379 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:48:27.790 --> 01:48:47.790
Talk to Dean Ritter about providing opportunities through the business school where they can work in the athletics department. I think collaboration is a really important thing that we're gonna do. Communication I've touched on a few times, just being transparent, having meetings like this, discussions, reaching out to people, and then again from visiting with our staff across campus, really being student.

380 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:48:47.790 --> 01:49:14.810
Focused. And then and then finally, the 400 student athletes that I serve, what I talk to them about is is supporting them, supporting them personally, socially, academically, and athletically, providing them with opportunities. Opportunities beyond competition. When I was a student athlete at the University of Iowa, we didn't have the type of opportunities that student athletes can receive today are all students. That's so something that we're really gonna work on. I think we do a good job of it, but I think we can do a great job.

381 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:49:14.810 --> 01:49:26.160
Job of it, and then they're just their overall growth and development and their growth and development beyond sport, beyond just the class or really their development is a total person.

382 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:49:26.160 --> 01:49:46.160
So I, I I think this is important and I I tell this to our our our coaches a lot, but our our our faculty develop students, our coaches developed students and our staff develop students. I think that's who we are in a high performing athletics department. We develop people in all those ways that I've touched on.

383 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:49:46.160 --> 01:50:02.040
Several different times. But the thing I would talk about really at the top, at the header is just having that shared purpose and having that student centered approach and having that institution 1st mindset as well. It always it always comes down to development and support.

384 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:50:02.040 --> 01:50:20.070
So some, some thoughts with our coaches and staff, the listening I've done, the types of values that we're gonna have in the athletics department. And and so I think what's really important here, this this might be, this might be the most important slide.

385 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:50:20.070 --> 01:50:40.070
Our our coaches, our programs compliment the work that our faculty do on campus. They compliment that. We're we're all educators in this, and you'll see this further on, but we help them with accountability, the discipline, the behaviors that they do, really having that a good culture for their programs, but taking the.

386 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:50:40.070 --> 01:51:05.720
That culture to their personal life taking that culture across our entire campus. Leadership. I think leadership's really important and having an environment here through sport programs, through student orgs to really raise their hand and lead and, and really refine what their approach is to leadership I think here at the University of Toledo, we do that in a really effective way than resiliency. You know, in college athletics, there's there, there's win.

387 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:51:05.720 --> 01:51:26.220
And you gotta pick yourself up and you gotta get back at it. And so having res resiliency and working through adversity, the type of student athlete experience I had, I think that goes back to that type of education that we provide. I think this one's really important here. This really gets back to the, the, the people.

388 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:51:26.220 --> 01:51:44.460
When we recruit student athletes to come to this campus and I meet with most of our recruits, I, I talk about their education 1st. I, I talk about the community. And when I visit with parents, those are the 1st questions they have. They have a good understanding of what their athletic experience is gonna be. They're looking at other schools.

389 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:51:44.460 --> 01:52:01.500
But we separate ourselves by recruiting student athletes that thrive in this environment, but then also real how fortunate they are to be a rocket and to be a part of this entire institution. So I think recruiting is something we've done really well, but it's really recruiting the total person.

390 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:52:01.500 --> 01:52:21.500
The way we develop the whole student, as I've touched on a few times, developing all those different ways, I think our staff does a great job, but then also continuing to work throughout this campus to provide them opportunities to grow well beyond competition. The way we support them in their academics, their personal growth, I think their social growth, what's great about college athletics in this institution.

391 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:52:21.500 --> 01:52:44.270
And they get to meet so many different people. International students, people from different parts of the country with just different types of backgrounds. I think that's something that we've done really well and will continue to do, and then prepare them. Prepare them when they graduate from this institution to go out and be leaders in business, to be great family members, and to be leaders in the community. But the 1st part that really starts with is the top.

392 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:52:44.270 --> 01:52:48.540
Type of people that we recruit to the University of Talita.

393 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:52:48.540 --> 01:53:07.260
So this is the listening I've really heard from our student athletes. I've met with our student athlete advisory council. Before I even started in the position, the very 1st group of people I met with were our student athletes and really listened to them and the things that were important to them for their, their student experience and their student athlete experience.

394 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:53:07.260 --> 01:53:28.850
Having that student 1st mindset, and that's what they've really communicated to me. The way that we, we grow and educate them. And as I said a few slides ago, how college athletics and our coaches and staff complement keywords compliment the work that they do with our faculty. So whether it's in classroom.

395 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:53:28.850 --> 01:53:42.309
Research, the experiential learning, the internships, the co ops that are a key part of the university's new strategic plan, but then also the way that they learn in competition as well.

396 "Barry Scheuermann" (724946688)
01:53:42.309 --> 01:53:43.070
Okay.

397 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:53:43.070 --> 01:54:10.050
Success. I think it is measured in in so many different ways. Really proud of our student athletes GPA, they have nearly a 3.55 GPA from the institutions I've been fortunate to serve, that is by far the highest but then also the wide variety of debri degree programs that our student athletes are in. But then also beyond the academic success leadership opportunities and career readiness, financial education.

398 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:54:10.050 --> 01:54:30.050
And when they have career readiness, we have great mentoring programs where they're learning from people, really hands on experiences where they get to be vulnerable. They get to ask questions that an 18 or 22 year old wants to ask so they can really learn. A cool story we had key Bank come in this summer and provide some great financial education. And I encourage those student athletes like ask about.

399 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:54:30.050 --> 01:54:50.600
Ask about the challenges with with credit card bills. You get to do that now when you're 19 years old because the expectation is in a few years you understand those things, and I think career readiness is really important, but then also their personal growth. And as I said a couple times, just their competitive excellence. What you'll, what you'll never hear me say is, is just win.

400 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:54:50.600 --> 01:55:06.210
Thing. We want to build champions that have competitive excellence in all the different things that they get to experience at this institution and when they leave this institution to take those skills into their professional life and into their personal life.

401 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:55:06.210 --> 01:55:25.200
The community piece is really important. It's kind of my background for someone who's worked in college athletics I've always been in the community, whether it's in development, marketing, public relations, and I've gotten some great feedback from our community on what they expect the values and how our athletics department operates. And so as we jump into this slide.

402 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:55:25.200 --> 01:55:45.200
Well one of the things that, that I think is really important, the way I view college athletics is that we're a public trust. Sometimes college athletics is compared to professional sports. In professional sports, there's an owner. We are absolutely a public trust of this institution, of our staff, our faculty, our alumni, our fans, civic.

403 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:55:45.200 --> 01:56:05.200
Leaders I really believe in that being a public trust. And so the feedback that I've gotten about that is the, the, the, the, the dialogue about students. And dr. Holloway says this a lot is they're student athletes, but we definitely put the students 1st and my background being raised by two.

404 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:56:05.200 --> 01:56:21.000
Lifelong educators, you probably tell it's something I'm I'm really passionate about, but so is our community. And whenever I speak in public and I talk about their academic success, if there's one thing that they're gonna clap and cheer about, it's always their academic success.

405 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:56:21.000 --> 01:56:41.000
But then also how in athletics departments, how we can unite alumni and fans. We get to bring so many people to this incredible institution that get that get to see the great work that that you guys do. The work that our alumni have done. One of the coolest events I've ever been to in my 20 years in higher education.

406 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:56:41.000 --> 01:56:59.328
Was last Friday for homecoming through the alumni association. Where you saw all of our different graduates at different tenures of their career receiving awards. I've never been to an event like that, and for us in athletics department, we need to do those types of things where we tell the story of our entire institution.

407 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:56:59.328 --> 01:57:20.370
Last few things here as we kind of wrap up. I think athletics really the the value that we bring where we create opportunities is brand awareness. I think what's great about the University of Toledo is our brand is really strong. You know where it is. And I know that firsthand. When I worked at Purdue University.

408 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:57:20.370 --> 01:57:40.370
We asked a lot of people around the country, maybe it's in Ohio, maybe it's in Wisconsin, a lot of people didn't know that. And so for us in athletics department, that's why we have to have that holistic approach. Cause when the rockets play, we are always representing the University of Toleto and everyone that's involved with this campus. I think we can.

409 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:57:40.370 --> 01:58:00.370
Build affinity, alumni engagement coming out of homecoming, as we mentioned at the start of this, so many alumni coming back to this campus, but it's far beyond just a football game. It's the relationships that they have, the friendships that they have. One of the things that I tell our students on campus and I go to the student Tailgate every Saturday, the relationships and.

410 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:58:00.370 --> 01:58:20.370
Friendships that they have in the classroom, going to games, going to the rack, being involved in student orgs, Greek life. Those friendships and relationships last a lifetime. But the University of Toleto is at the center of that, and for our athletic events, we can really build that engagement and build that affinity for them and.

411 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:58:20.370 --> 01:58:44.540
Always have the opportunity to come home to the University of Toleto. And last two things here to kind of wrap up. We'll go to strategic priorities. The reason why I say strategic priorities, the university is a new strategic plan. And so within the athletics department, we will develop a core set of strategic priorities that everyone in the athletics department's gonna know about. I'm a big believer.

412 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:58:44.540 --> 01:59:08.220
We're on executing my strategic priorities. And so as we jump into these, it's, it's relatively brief, but I think it's important for all of our staff members, all of our coaches, and we'll share these publicly what those strategic priorities are, and we'll talk about these on a daily and weekly basis. And as I talked about in 2nd or 3rd side.

413 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:59:08.220 --> 01:59:28.220
Slide having that that student focused mindset and that institution 1st mindset as well, they'll play a key role in what our strategic priorities are. And so the 1st one's building champions. Building champions and and everything that they do. Our student athletes already have, I call them some tomisms. One of one of my tomisms are, and they they probably.

414 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:59:28.220 --> 01:59:44.340
Really make bets on these is what you do some of the time you do all the time. And when I talk to our student athletes, if they're not performing at a high level in the classroom, how can we expect them? How can we count on them to perform at a high level in competition?

415 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
01:59:44.340 --> 02:00:04.340
And so that's what I mean by building champions. It's just not what they do athletically or in competition. It's all the things that they get the opportunity to do at this institution. Education, academic achievement, career preparation. What's great about today's student athlete experience as opposed to the one I had 20 years.

416 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:00:04.340 --> 02:00:24.330
Years ago, sometimes you couldn't decide what your degree program was. Maybe practice or competition conflicted with that. There's not a better time to be a division one student athlete especially at a place like the University of Toledo. And then finally engagement, which I've touched on several times.

417 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:00:24.330 --> 02:00:41.640
This is a point of pride for us, the way we can bring people into this institution, the way we can help drive enrollment. One of the things we're really growing in the athletics department is, is camps and clinics. We had nearly 30 high school bands at the glass bull two weeks ago.

418 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:00:41.640 --> 02:01:00.960
That's hundreds and hundreds of profession potential students. Those potential students, those need to go into our enrollment strategy, and we need to bring those types of people in. So when they go to that band competition in the glass bull, they're walking around campus. They're seeing what it's like to potentially be a student here at the University of Toleta.

419 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:01:00.960 --> 02:01:20.960
Last few things here, the way that we compete, the way that we lead, just really being aligned with the overall mission of the institution I think I've I've touched on a couple of these things, but really reiterates this and what our strategic priorities are. Those strategic priorities are gonna really support.

420 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:01:20.960 --> 02:01:43.710
Support the overall strategic plan and support all the different goals and priorities that we have going on here at the University of Toledo. And then finally as we, as we wrap up here we go to the end cause I'm getting a little long here. Just academic success. It's always has been, and this always will be our highest priority. And as I, as I touched on a few minutes ago.

421 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:01:43.710 --> 02:02:03.710
Working with our student athletes. I was just with our our women's basketball program this afternoon. They have nearly a 3.7 GPA. The last two years they've competed for a conference title. They do great work in the community, but it always starts with what their academics are and how they're engaging with our faculty.

422 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:02:03.710 --> 02:02:07.168
Team staff on this campus.

423 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:02:07.168 --> 02:02:32.289
I think we've kind of popped around here a little bit so we can go to the end. Here we go. So I'll pause there. Sorry I went a little bit long. I'm never short on concept there. Right. So I'll pause there if there's any topics you want me to discuss or any, any questions.

424 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:02:33.987 --> 02:02:41.430
Come come come come we must have a question. We're just meeting Tom Moorland for the 1st time as senators.

425 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:02:41.430 --> 02:03:01.430
Okay. Thank you for coming. I appreciate it. Can you hear me? Yeah, yeah. So, you know, I I went to Central Mission university, which is also meg school and I went to the university.

426 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:03:01.430 --> 02:03:21.430
To Michigan and I've never heard anybody talk so student focused on, on, on academics and leadership. So I'm really glad that you're here. I think that this is really important and I just welcome to the University of Toleto, this is wonderful. I appreciate it. What I'll go back to is.

427 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:03:21.430 --> 02:03:38.310
On the slides, I I just I think consistency is so important. And when we talk about the academic success of our student athletes, I ask every student athlete when I see him, they would tell you this, I ask him how they're doing, but I always ask him how school is going.

428 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:03:38.310 --> 02:03:58.310
And so for some of our student athletes, when they come up and see me now, it's almost a joke. They'll, they'll give me an update right away. They're like, alright, this is going well, this is going, so it's kind of a joke between them. But that that's why they're here. If you look at my student athlete experience, I was never gonna play professional baseball. I figured that out 15 min into the 1st practice. And I was like bill.

429 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:03:58.310 --> 02:04:10.050
This is why you're here and so I think it also helps, you know, both my parents were lifelong school teachers and educators and so I think that's what also back to the recruitment piece, I think that's why people want to come here.

430 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:04:10.050 --> 02:04:25.170
Because they're gonna receive a great degree, hands on learning opportunities, really grow and develop as a person. Hopefully they stay in Toadido in Northwest Ohio wherever they go but to take those experiences into their professional life and their personal life as well.

431 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:04:25.170 --> 02:04:45.170
Especially the focus on building an alumni base. Yeah. I think that's really important because I don't I don't send money to central Michigan or the University of Michigan and I I think that the the culture that you're trying to build, they'll come back and they'll give back. Yeah, I, and I think that's really important, you know, the last couple institutions I've served, I don't think the.

432 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:04:45.170 --> 02:05:05.170
Department probably was as effective as we would like to have been when it came to engaging alumni. We did a good job with letter winners and fans. Great thing about fans is you can really grow your fan base and bring them into the institution. That's what's unique about college athletics is anybody can be a rocket and they go to a football game.

433 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:05:05.170 --> 02:05:25.170
Name but then they they meet the dean of the business school. And so we really take a lot of pride in that, but we can never take our alumni for granted because they went to school here their loyalty or affinity. I think college athletics as a whole has maybe have taken alumni for granted, but just seeing the passion that we have for alumni here, that that's gonna be.

434 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:05:25.170 --> 02:05:27.330
A real point of pride for us.

435 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:05:27.330 --> 02:05:47.330
Is there anything This is Renee Heavily, is there anything in the department that you came and saw and said, I would like to do this differently or initiatives that you're taking on that you want to share that are a little bit more concrete because we got a really good sense of your vision and your priorities here, but any good examples you've.

436 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:05:47.330 --> 02:05:59.160
Yeah, it's a great question. I I think sometimes leaders when they come to an organization like this, they come in with.

437 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:05:59.160 --> 02:06:19.160
Their goals, their priorities, their ideas. I don't think that's effective, especially being a public institution, and as I said a couple of times, I really view this as a public trust. So I spent my 1st few months really just listening to staff, faculty, coaches, leadership, civic leaders that.

438 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:06:19.160 --> 02:06:25.500
The list goes on and on. But what I quickly realized back to the point you made earlier.

439 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:06:25.500 --> 02:06:45.500
We cannot be out in the community enough. So one of the things I do with my time, I block off two full days a week to be out of the office and in the community. And so whether it's on campus, in Toledo Northwest Ohio, traveling Ohio, some, some national travel as well, we, we just have.

440 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:06:45.500 --> 02:06:50.610
Have an incredible alumni base, fan base, people that.

441 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:06:50.610 --> 02:07:10.610
Aren't necessarily graduates from here, but they love the institution. I have met some folks in Chicago where maybe their grandparents went to school here, maybe their parents did, but they loved the University of Toleto, and I think that's something that I think we've done a really nice job of that, but I think we have a much broader audience.

442 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:07:10.610 --> 02:07:19.020
Than we've probably thought about for the last few years and so we we cannot be out in the community enough telling the entire institution's story.

443 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:07:19.020 --> 02:07:39.020
Nicely put. Yes, I can. James Wiley has In the text he says excellent presentation, the university and region will benefit from your contributions and leadership. I expect your leadership will help grow the enrollment. Yes, enrollment.

444 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:07:39.020 --> 02:07:48.300
Then there's the enrollment. Thank you James. Yes, absolutely. That is part of our hope and aspiration.

445 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:07:48.300 --> 02:08:08.300
I think that that message can go out to all of us as faculty to get the heck out of our offices cause I know I tend to scroll away and stay in my head too much. So it's a really good, really good point about being out there. Any other questions or ideas or comments about student athletes in your classes or about the ways in which things might or might not be.

446 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:08:08.300 --> 02:08:12.750
Changing over in the department.

447 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:08:12.750 --> 02:08:30.420
All right. Well, thank you again so thank you guys Appreciate it. Thank you and we will now so yeah and congratulations on a great weekend. Thank you.

448 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:08:32.790 --> 02:08:52.740

VIII. Items from the floor

Okay, with that we have come to the point of our agenda where we call for items from the floor, and there's always so many I can hardly ever keep track. Items from the floor, and now I'm gonna give a moment because I have cut people off in the past, who took a second.

449 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:08:52.740 --> 02:09:11.760
You're saying you are floored? Items from the floored. We are all floored by all of the great presentations today. Items from the floored. David has an item from the floor?

450 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:09:11.760 --> 02:09:31.760
Thank you Sharon. Yeah, I noticed in the chat earlier after we had recognized Debra Older Harris that Samir Hefsi has also also passed away.

451 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:09:31.760 --> 02:09:40.230
Which I didn't know we we didn't know and I think we might want to acknowledge him at a future.

452 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:09:40.230 --> 02:09:59.880
We absolutely will. Thank you Jay for posting that in the chat and some of your headsy. Absolutely we should acknowledge passed away over the summer, and I think that's why it didn't get on our radar immediately, so I really appreciate you putting that on our radar and we will do that. Any other.

453 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:09:59.880 --> 02:10:19.880
Items from the floor. We scrolled back up. Yeah. 

IX. Adjournment 

I think we are done here. May I have a motion to adjourn? So move second, we are now officially adjourned. Thank you everyone and we will see you in two weeks and I am.

454 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:10:19.880 --> 02:10:23.760
Floored by the level of participation.

455 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:10:23.760 --> 02:10:43.760
Ready?

456 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (208466432)
02:10:43.760 --> 02:10:48.000
It's stopped.
Transcript for October 13, 2026, Faculty Senate Meeting
