feel like it's just fine. It's ozier and it can help people Yeah there's lenty of
seating for the people who do come here. We might open it up for a later meeting if
we expect more people I don't think we're.
23 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:09:23.839 --> 00:09:49.939
Going to be crowded, we never are and I think it just makes it more obvious that we're
a group instead of letting the particular teams like that she does say that. We put
the chairs down last time, but I wanted to make sure thank you very much. If we ever
want to take it up, how do we get there? There's a key.
24 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:09:49.939 --> 00:10:09.939
Oh, ok. Halfway. Yeah, we like we like it about. We like to play limbo so like We'll

Yeah, NO, just sent me everything because I just didn't I can be a good I'm not a
control freaker. I just need to know so i know this is the new deal. This has to be
US for you.
26 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:10:29.939 --> 00:10:49.939
And I'm seeing 14. Well, what does that mean? Crypted.
27 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:10:49.939 --> 00:11:21.389
So yeah so what we said. So NO. We really haven't gotten a clear direction.
28 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:11:21.389 --> 00:11:41.389
With the schedule. So we have Kathy doing something Scott has chimed in so we don't
need them. And so we have a number of different ideas willing to say, well, we should
probably put them in and I told her. I said we can't.
29 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:11:41.389 --> 00:12:02.689
Well, just the way I see it is like you all are going through this complicated process
and then you all are trying to.
30 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:12:02.689 --> 00:12:22.689
If those requirements are in addition to the curriculumer good classessment. But.
31 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:12:22.689 --> 00:12:42.689
Okay since we have to include? Yes.
32 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:12:42.689 --> 00:13:02.759
Exactly. There's another layer of review. Right, and I think that if you're right,
if somebody notices this it says oh NO CLOs need to be mapped onto every single party
of the course, then we can take a I mean, I I would suggest that the committee take
that under advisement could not necessarily just do it because.
33 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:19.049
It doesn't think in the long run, this is like getting a lot of pushback I'm happy
to do that. I don't think we will, I don't think anybody wants to do this. Just so
mind you in the response was like I'm not doing that.
34 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:13:19.049 --> 00:13:39.049
That's the right place. I'm like, ok, where's freaking or where are you? Oh, this

Is that it here? What? Abyanker?
120 "Bob Yonker" (920455680)
00:30:05.192 --> 00:30:08.432
Here. Thank you.
121 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:30:08.432 --> 00:30:24.589
Looks like we have about and we have Barry and Jay Alle over here. Okay alright we
needed and Diana France is here.
122 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:30:24.589 --> 00:30:40.979
Who was the other one? Barry and Jay. J and Diana and is here. Ashley is here. What's
somebody?
123 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:30:40.979 --> 00:31:00.979
Okay. Thank you. Thank you, we have a forum. We now need to approve the agenda and
that is by consent, so if there are NO objections to what is on the agenda and NO
amendments friendly or otherwise, then we will go.
124 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:31:00.979 --> 00:31:21.749
And approve the agenda by consent. Thank you. Anything online? Okay, and approval
of minutes that were sent out on Friday by consent, if there are NO objections or
changes, then we will.
125 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:31:21.749 --> 00:31:41.749
Prove the minutes by consent, any changes in the chat or online, any issues. All right,
thank you. Before we start our formal meeting, I would like to introduce dr. Jay Alaticia
and he will offer attribute to a colleague who passed away last.
126 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:31:41.749 --> 00:31:50.791
Dr. Soumya Hepsy from the College of Engineering to acknowledge his contributions.
Jay, would you like to go ahead?
127 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:31:54.930 --> 00:32:12.269
Jay, are you there? Is she still on or did he maybe lost lost here. Jay, are you ready
to do it just muted? You're muted Jay.
128 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:32:12.269 --> 00:32:27.929
Can you unmute him? Yeah, I can't. Hello Jay? Jay, are you with us?
129 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:32:27.929 --> 00:32:47.999
We can always do this at another moment in the meeting if we can connect with Jay.
All right, then I will go ahead and re and report from the faculty Senate executive
committee.
130 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:32:47.999 --> 00:33:07.999
On activities and issues that have come up in the last couple of few weeks. I have
three areas to share information about. Basically, I organize them into university
affairs, initiatives still or newly on the radar and internal Senate affairs. So for
university level, the faculty.
131 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:33:07.999 --> 00:33:42.439
The executive committee met with President Holloway and Promos McKinney on 16 October.
And our main point of discussion or the she was organizing our discussion was the
centralization of services at the university. So our categories included that we were
discussing advising information technology, Marcom and budgeting. On advising, we
discussed how if the goals of centralized advising services were to even out otherwise
uneven quality of advising across campus, and I think many of us would agree that.
132 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:33:42.439 --> 00:34:02.439
That quality of advising was uneven across campus and to clarify points of contact
for all students, which also we would probably all agree that students didn't necessarily
know who their advisor was at what point in their journey. If those two things are
the goals, then we would want to continually assess on those grounds how this.
133 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:34:02.439 --> 00:34:22.439
New system is working. So we're suggesting a review or a survey biannually, e.g.,
and a couple of concrete proposals came up in our meeting about perhaps moving some
of the professional staff advisors back to colleges, back to the spaces where they
were working earlier while they continue to.
134 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:34:22.439 --> 00:34:42.439
Report through the reporting lines that are currently determining how central advising
is organized. So we're having very concrete and very specific conversations about
advising and if you have any kind of comments or ideas about that, please share them
because again it was a lot was changed last year and so.
135 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:34:42.439 --> 00:35:16.519
So as faculty, we consider advising to be very much part of our relationship with
students and that organic relationship that we develop with students, so we have a
vested interest in how it's going and what students think and how they understand
it. On information technology, we had a brief discussion of Copilot the other day.
I just got another email about welcome. Oh, I forgot what it was. Welcome shopping.
IT, NO. What was it? Welcome windows. Windows wow. Hello windows. Hello! Windows.
And I was like, oh hello.
136 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:36.519
Do I use that? Yes, I do. Now I have to try to figure out a VPN of my house. Oh my
god. This is just gonna take so long. Anyway, so with IT we're thinking about how
it's servicing fiberly needs and offices with software, security of the system we
know is top of mind. Please continue to bring any issues to your senate representative
and we will continue to work towards.
137 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:35:36.519 --> 00:35:56.519
Common sense solutions. If you bring concerns directly to IT offices, just think about
whether they might impact more than your individual situation and copy the faculty
Senate on some of those concerns if you have them. On Marcom, controlling branch presence
and sustaining consistency is so important across the Utilito web network and system.
138 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:35:56.519 --> 00:36:16.519
And with new leadership who will meet in the next meeting 10 November dr. Nicole Simchak
will be here to discuss with her us her vision and what she's doing. We'll continue
to work with We have opportunities to make sure our voices are heard about the web
presence of our programs and importantly about the time it takes to develop materials
for publicio.
139 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:37.267
Or reporting on events and accomplishments. Then on budgeting with the weathering
way of responsibility based budgeting, it's unclear, I know, I have to quote marks
at least once every meeting. Wintering way of responsibility based budgeting, it is
unclear whether there is consistency across colleges as to how they.
140 "Diana Franz" (762932480)
00:36:37.267 --> 00:36:38.085
Allocate resources.
141 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:36:38.085 --> 00:36:48.449
Transparency is key. There is general agreement that the budget priorities and practices
of the university are not effectively communicated to stakeholders.
142 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:36:48.449 --> 00:37:08.449
Faculty must be better and more consistently informed about allocation and reallocation
initiatives, and administration must remember that reallocation of a 0 st pie is a
budget cut somewhere to some reallocation is meaningful as a budget cut somewhere
to someone and shouldn't just be said. No, it's not a budget cut and it's a.
143 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:37:08.449 --> 00:37:31.219
Allocation because it certainly feels like a cut when you're losing money in your
program, and priorities are shifting. We know that that happens, but we also need
more awareness and more consultation. Now Matt Rotter and progress McKinney will present
present on budget matters on 24 November. I will facilitate and Margaret Hugling,
who is the chair of the budget committee, will lead the conversation.
144 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:37:31.219 --> 00:37:49.559
Please come in person. We will provide non turkey flavored snacks. You have to come
here to get them. No meat flavored snacks.
145 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:37:49.559 --> 00:38:09.559
Initiatives on the radar ascend, and the promos to the Ascend team may correct me,
but I thought I would spill out this analysis at this point. The promos office has
been working with deans and chairs to inventory all experiential and activity based
learning across the curriculum on our campus. These courses will be tagged with the
ascend.
146 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:38:09.559 --> 00:38:33.600
Send attributions without undergoing the KIM review process. Anything that was already
there will be tagged as as ascend. FSEC understands this as an administrative tagging
of course offerings that already exist have been approved through Kim. Any course
modifications or new courses or programs that wish to have the ascend attribute will
be reviewed through the system.
147 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:38:33.600 --> 00:38:53.600
The committee headed by Tyler Glauson will review four ascend attribution as it goes
through the Kim system. I'm pausing for corrections if any, but it's ok, good. For
current students, about 20 % or so, who do not have an ascend attribute baked into
their plan of study, there will be a brand new NO.
148 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:38:53.600 --> 00:39:21.170
Or before tried zero credit course they can petition to have on their transcript.
Pause for correction? Wow, it's a court. Yeah, we're gonna create co curricular zero
curricular or some kind of credit they can petition to have. Our concerns are not
so much what it's titled but rather where will this credit live and perhaps in university
college was one suggestion and how.
149 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:39:21.170 --> 00:39:41.170
Much of a burden are we putting on students and maybe faculty to petition for the
credit and supervise its completion? So those questions are still out there for us
to think about. The common hour, the student government continues to work on a proposal.
Kwinetta have found prior Senate minutes, addressing this. Thank you. We have turned
those over to our student affairs committee.
150 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:39:41.170 --> 00:40:04.760
And this is a long term project under discussion. The syllabuye, the famous syllabuye
issue, there's been massive work on clarifying Kim and simple syllabus overlaps and
connection, what is required for the curricular review process by the university,
by SB one and by the higher learning commission under pressure from three different
places, not pressure, but, you know, things that were.
151 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:40:04.760 --> 00:40:24.760
Required by three different systems. James Overland as chair of academic regulations
today will report on syllabus requirements and input from that committee. But in general,
I assure you that clarification is we are on the road to clarity. Senate Affairs.
More interesting member of Matt Crookey is scheduled to visit the classes.
152 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:49.760
With Deborah Orlafa and Andrew Rodes, and I wanted to call them out and say yay, that's
great. We continue to encourage other BOT members to sign on. I nailed a couple of
them at the presidential addressed last week and they all said yes yes, I'm doing,
I'm trying. I'm working on it. So I left them alone. Please communicate with Kwinetta
and copy me if you or not a Senate colleague has a spring class you would like to
open up for a visit cause most of them were fall classes, and as you'll notice.
153 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:40:49.760 --> 00:41:19.490
So we're kind of running out of time, so spring is coming and this is an ongoing initiative,
it's gonna take time, busy people all around us and the board, so BOT non voting membership
for a faculty. Ongoing work as to how this works at Ohio publics. I've been researching
how other Ohio publics handle representation on the board of faculty. A question as
to whether or not to work in a statewide initiative or individually as each campus
is very, very different in its approach. So it is.
154 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:41:19.490 --> 00:41:46.100
Likely at this point a working group will be assigned to under this guidance to FSC
under the guidance from FSEC. Any senators that are particularly interested in this
question about representation on the board would please contact me and let me know,
and we will continue to discuss this as the FSEC and if there is just like, if it's
dead in the water, it's dead in the water, that's fine, but if something that is,
has been put on the table.
155 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:41:46.100 --> 00:42:11.280
And we're discussing it and the board of trustee's chair and the chair and co chair
of the trustee and governance committee are open to proposals. They're open to discussion
on this. So committee reform initial thoughts, and this is gonna be a total propagation
just to get y'all talking. So please don't, don't smack me around later. Total propagation,
I know it is.
156 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:42:11.280 --> 00:42:30.450
Should we combine student and faculty affairs with academic regulate should we combine
student and faculty affairs with academic regulations, e.g.? Should we combine elections
in constitutions and rules? We are also discussing making committees with more responsibilities
that then conform subcommittees according to members interests.
157 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:42:30.450 --> 00:42:50.450
Please send comments and suggestions our way. We will be preparing proposals for comment
over the next few months from all senators and all interested faculty. The problem
is having eleven committees with one representative from every college is proving
very, very difficult to hold together and to activate. So we're trying to create a
committee structure that will motivate.
158 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:42:50.450 --> 00:43:08.340
And activate around not just college representation but also interests and what faculty
actually want to do in their particular area in a particular area of faculty governance.
So that's our goal, and we think we could have a more active restructure and now I'm
going to see if Jay is here.
159 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:43:08.340 --> 00:43:29.870
And we're not seeing any. Hello Jay, are you there yet? Okay, then I'm going to turn
it over to our co host. I think I'll go down and play to the crowd. Right yes. Yes.
160 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:43:29.870 --> 00:44:01.620
You have to have an audience. See their smiling faces. So, so I, I brought my computer
because I had not read this article yet, but I liked your discussion prompt Renee
of total probability, right? Like talks talk amongst yourself. Maybe I shouldn't call
your attention, so you'll want to go to to today's issue of the chronicle of higher
education and this provocative article that I must read. Maybe I'll I'll include it
in my Monday musics. Don't replace professors with AI.
161 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:44:01.620 --> 00:44:21.620
Replace administrators instead. Now today's not lasting. She's. That's right. Okay.
162 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:44:21.620 --> 00:44:41.620
So yesterday I announced I sent out our campus the announcement of our two deanned
search committees and I wanted to just do another, actually thanks thanks to both
committees and so our search committees are in place and working for the search.
163 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:44:41.620 --> 00:45:01.620
This for Deans in the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and the College
of Health and Human Services. Thank you, search committee, for NSM, chaired by Dean
Barb Ritter. Thank you Barb. Bruce Bamberg, Jonathan Boston Brooke, Bill Kayley's,
Kathy Fisher, Tracy Long.
164 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:45:01.620 --> 00:45:32.510
Andreanna, Sanjay Single, and Claire Mueler. Those last two are the student representatives,
the undergraduate and graduate student. Thank you College of Health and Human Services,
Dean search committee, chaired by Dean Pam Heaton, Leslie Nyland Brown, Cindy Boogian,
James Oberlander, Holly Eightner, Joe Day, Alexia Metz, Nicole Clayton, Amanda Abraham,
and Nate Leonard. Now.
165 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:45:32.510 --> 00:45:48.480
For those of you and actually for for anyone across campus, please, please, please
reach out to members of the search committee committees, provide your perspectives,
your input.
166 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:45:48.480 --> 00:46:03.630
The search committees are currently planning multiple feedback sessions within both
of the colleges. So please, when you see the notice of those sessions, faculty, staff,
students.
167 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:46:03.630 --> 00:46:23.630
Participate in providing feedback to the search committee as they finalize the position
the position profiles, and then of course in the spring we will start to have candidates
on campus and then I will encourage you again to participate.
168 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:46:23.630 --> 00:46:53.450
Yeah, and fully in these very important decisions that certainly yes, affect the two
colleges but affect the entire university. So, be a part of of those search committees.
Simple syllabus reminder, we we also have communicated out that we are encouraging
all faculty undergraduate courses being taught in the spring for you to go.
169 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:46:53.450 --> 00:47:10.140
Go into the simple syllabus portal, a convenient link somewhere that you, you can
find and start to upload your january. Oh it's through your platform. That's, that's
where you find it. Yes. And you can also access the portal directly out.
170 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:47:10.140 --> 00:47:30.140
Yes, you can access it directly, it'll be in the chat and you can go through blackboard.
That's where I start mine and completed it. So you can start to complete your syllavi
undergraduate simple syllabus syllavide for the spring for spring courses. Our goal
again in this for the spring.
171 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:47:30.140 --> 00:47:45.210
Semester is to have all undergraduate courses syllabuy uploaded by the beginning of
the 1st day of the spring semester. We have also announced, encouraged.
172 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:47:45.210 --> 00:48:05.210
That graduate syllavie can be uploaded, created through simple sylvas. If you're teaching
a graduate course this semester, you can very quickly conveniently go in and upload
your graduate course syllvas. Now, the graduate course syllavi will not.
173 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:48:05.210 --> 00:48:23.820
Be posted publicly as the SP one requirements are for undergraduates. However, fall
of 27, that's next year, isn't it? Fall of 27, we are transitioning to requesting.
174 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:48:23.820 --> 00:48:43.820
Requiring all graduates syllabuy to be entered through simple syllabus for our HLC
accreditation requirements where we must have a copy on file available for our accreditation
catherine. So you can go ahead.
175 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:48:43.820 --> 00:49:14.630
Graduate instructors, of courses, go ahead and get a head start and create your graduate
simple sopa. Other important announcements. National Distance Learning Week, there
will be a link. I would encourage you, I think I saw our with us online. You will
find next week is National Distance Learning Week. Every day of the week there's activities,
there's lots of things going on. Actually.
176 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:49:14.630 --> 00:49:34.630
What caught my attention is on Friday of next week, the instructional design day,
a number of activities throughout the day and I've I've already circled advanced copilot
lab for faculty, build AI powered learning experiences, and then also.
177 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:49:34.630 --> 00:49:50.640
Faculty lightning talks and discussions, which then takes me to our faculty showcase
teaching and learning with AI that is happening on Friday, November the 13th. I said
in some public meeting.
178 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:49:50.640 --> 00:50:10.640
I think it was. Is it a board meeting or somewhere? Yes, that for those naysayers
that AI is the doom of humanity and civilization, they asked me, did we purposely
plan our faculty teaching and learning with AI on Friday the 13th? Is that a symbolic
statement? I said, No I.
179 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:50:10.640 --> 00:50:42.020
I don't think the planners realized that it was happening on Friday the 13th. Yet
you can go to register for that showcase on Friday the 13th. Also a reminder, and
this is top of mind, actually it was just marked off of my two do list Yes, I I was
very late in the game of entering my midterm final, my midterm exam grades, go to
my UT portal under the faculty grading tab, midterm exams.
180 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:50:42.020 --> 00:51:05.720
Our midterm grades are due Sunday, 11:59 p.m.. So midnight Sunday night, please, please
go and enter those. Finally, we're gonna have fun this Thursday whatever this is the
October the 29th at our sweets and screens at all tricks.
181 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:51:05.720 --> 00:51:33.950
No, all treats, NO tricks for our students and our tricker treat Halloween celebration
eleven to 01:11 A.M. to 01:00 P.M. student union. Be there in costume. I've already
told the deans, the deans, I will judge the best costume that college gets a faculty
line. They all know to disregard that now because I've used it several times.
182 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:51:33.950 --> 00:51:50.550
Yes, let's have some so actually I Ander has a comment a question or comment. Actually,
I have just finalized my costume for Thursday and it is a faculty signature thing.
183 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:51:50.550 --> 00:52:10.550
Okay yes, NO problem. I just get myself into trouble. That number stops me. Alright,
well I'll be there. Nadiness have a plan. Very good. Non planned. Very good.
184 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:52:10.550 --> 00:52:30.860
That's it. I'm sure I went over my 10 min. Not yet. Any question? Yeah, I Haven't
a very different question. I was wondering, do we have a new director for the office
of undergraduate research yet? And how, how are we standing? We're, I mean, I know
Jessica came back for certain amount of hours per week.
185 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:52:30.860 --> 00:52:50.860
She's thoughtful time. Jessica continues with us part time. I was just emailing today
and it's about this thing that web forms went down and, and we we and and we're developing
a Microsoft form for our undergraduate research, spring research.
186 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:52:50.860 --> 00:53:12.170
Funding opportunity for our undergraduates next semester. But to your question yes,
we do have a a director for undergraduate research that will be gaining on Monday.
Monday and I I and I will meet this individual and then we will introduce this individual
to faculty center.
187 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:53:12.170 --> 00:53:34.070
Thank you. Yes. Excited about that. Thanks. There is a question online from Don Wedding
promotes this HLC specifically require simple syllabus or just a syllabus to be available?
I assume Don, you're referring to the graduate syllabus? Yeah, I think it's a syllabus
to be available. We have to have.
188 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:53:34.070 --> 00:53:51.000
Copies of all syllabuy for, for our accreditation both undergraduate and graduate.
So the the route that we're taking to, I think most conveniently aid us in gathering
all graduate syllabuye is to use the simple syllabus.
189 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:53:51.000 --> 00:54:09.330
Framework. Right. And, and it also, I just added the comment, it also ensures that
we have all required elements on our syllavi. Are there other questions for the pro
boat online or in the room?
190 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:54:09.330 --> 00:54:29.330
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for that. We'll now move to, new business. This does
not James Oberlander, are you online? He is back.
191 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:54:29.330 --> 00:54:56.647

No, we appreciate you coming in.
194 "Ahalapitiya jayatissa" (2060291840)
00:55:05.928 --> 00:55:22.080
Thank you. Go right ahead. Hello, everybody. Good evening. I am bringing this note
from our department, the Department of Mechanical Industrial and manufacturing engineering.

For my students colleagues and alumni condi additional details will be shared with
our community as they become available. Thank you.
200 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:56:50.984 --> 00:57:00.870
Thank you Jay. That was lovely and yeah anyone wanting more information, please connect
with.
201 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:57:00.870 --> 00:57:20.870
Folks in Mime or is it mye me? Thank you. We'll now turn it over to our chair of academic
regulations, James Oberlander for his committee report Standing in the right place
here. You're absolutely fine. All right.
202 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:57:20.870 --> 00:57:32.040
So, as if the beginning of the semester wasn't busy enough, our committee received
numerous requests for review of policies. Thank you very much.
203 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:57:32.040 --> 00:57:50.670
So, I'm just gonna give a summary of what our committee has been working on processing
through thanks to what we received from the progress office. So the 1st policy we
received feel like it was day one of the semester with an urgent request for review.
204 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:57:50.670 --> 00:58:10.670
Correct me if I'm wrong. It seems like this policy, this 1st one is college and school
and department reorganization and name changes policy was sort of already in effect,
but we needed to follow through the process of shared governance and it needed to
come through, our committee to review that email.
205 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:58:10.670 --> 00:58:30.670
You know it had kind of fallen into some cracks somewhere and just We found it on
the faculty Senate website in 2018 it was out there for review back to 2018 for review
but which was long before my time. So over the course of a few.
206 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:58:30.670 --> 00:58:50.670
Weeks a week at the beginning of the semester. We looked at this policy which focuses
on making sure that faculty are provided the opportunity to work with college deans
on recommendations for name changes and or reorganization of the college and department.
Then the policy also guides the college and department and or department in its communication
with the promosed office.
207 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:58:50.670 --> 00:59:01.620
We'll guide further cross unit discussions and campus wide discussions with other
deans, other departments, other colleges with the faculty senate. Just to make sure
that.
208 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:59:01.620 --> 00:59:21.620
Whenever a college school or department is desiring to reorganize or have a name change
that we make sure everybody has provided that information. The committee didn't, we
don't vote, we just make recommendations, the committee as a whole said that the policy
looked good. We.
209 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:59:21.620 --> 00:59:36.660
Set back a few recommendations to the pro boast office. There's been some ongoing
discussions since the timeline was pretty crunched in our review that we've set back
a few additional recommendations to the pro boast office for, for their.
210 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:59:36.660 --> 00:59:56.660
Questions? That's one of three. One of three and a half. Was your committee's reading
that the policy was really addressing when a department wants to change its name?
When a college wants to change its name? My my sense of how this happened.
211 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
00:59:56.660 --> 01:00:05.490
This is usually much more the other way around like it doesn't seem to usually come
up. Yeah.
212 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:00:05.490 --> 01:00:25.490
Yes and NO, like we just looked at, we kind of quickly looked at it from both angles,
like who's, who's making the request? Is it coming from the top down or is it maybe
college council amongst faculty or discussing the need for a reorganization? It could
go either way and so we felt that the policy.
213 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:00:25.490 --> 01:00:31.380
For both directions effectively. So. Thank you. Yeah.
214 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:00:31.380 --> 01:00:50.430
The next, 1 s. Are there any other questions online or in the room? Just 1 s. We can't
see the chat, so can you see the chat? Thank you.
215 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:00:50.430 --> 01:01:07.080
Okay, alright thanks go ahead. All right. So can you make this a little bigger so
we can. Sure exactly. Hello.
216 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:01:07.080 --> 01:01:27.080
Meet. So we give you guys a courtesy of the two week window before we post them for
public comments. So there is an additional 30 days that people have to make comments
too, but we kind of just give you guys a heads up. Yep. Yes, a precursory. Hey, you
guys get an extra two weeks in case you.
217 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:01:27.630 --> 01:01:47.630
Appreciate the clarification. So I was gonna skip. Let me skip the syllabus policy
because that might bring up some questions more like. So the next policy we were given
had to do with I would say an adjustment.
218 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:01:47.630 --> 01:02:04.350
Of the medical withdrawal policy for students. Previously there had been one policy
that was a medical withdrawal. Students had to wait until the end of the semester,
then they applied for medical withdrawal that could apply for the whole semester.
219 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:02:04.350 --> 01:02:24.350
The request was to break that up into two pop or not requests, but the proposed office
has broken that up into two policies. One is a non medical withdrawal and one is a
medical withdrawal to help clarify for students the processes, the different processes
which they're not that much different, but it just I think it helped.
220 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:02:25.470 --> 01:02:45.470
Students realizing there's a non medical way of seeking a withdrawal, not just a medical
way because I know I've been in that situation where I'm like, you can go through
the medical withdrawal process, but your request is a non medical reason, so I don't
know what the outcome's gonna be. So now it offers that clarification. The next.
221 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:02:45.470 --> 01:02:57.480
Takeaway from the committee was that we recommended that the proposed office potentially
review the timelines within the administrative and medical withdrawal policies so
that they're similar because they were.
222 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:02:57.480 --> 01:03:16.680
Pretty, pretty, big difference in the amount of time that a student was provided.
So we made that recommendation that they just be similar. Also, it's recommended that
the review to review the language revolving around the instructor's obligation to
make a great change consistent with the outcome. There was a, a comment of.
223 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:03:16.680 --> 01:03:36.680
Once the outcome for the student was determined, it goes back to the instructor to
make that great change. What if the instructor says, No, I don't agree. So we had
that discussion, sent that off to the provos, maybe tighten up the language a little
bit. Not sure how a faculty member would be able to override that.
224 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:03:36.680 --> 01:03:49.830
But, that was part of the conversation. Lastly, the pro boast, I may want to clarify
the wording around medical medical students because there's an exception to.
225 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:03:49.830 --> 01:04:09.830
Medical students not being a part of the policy, so wording around that except exemption
or exception for MD students and the rest of the student body is the two demographics
do not fall under the same policy while all students fall under the administrative
policy, so the medical driversus the.
226 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:04:09.830 --> 01:04:29.580
Non medical draw were different for medical students. That was, but the committee
felt like it was a good move to help clarify the language between medical and non
medical. Are there any questions or comments on the floor or from online?
227 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:04:29.580 --> 01:04:49.580
Yeah it's definitely worth a faculty review in general to understand the policy, not
to contest or anything, but just understand it because we do often have students coming
to ask us these questions, so thank you and thank you for the clarification.
228 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:04:49.580 --> 01:04:58.590
Alright, course syllabus policy.
229 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:04:58.590 --> 01:05:18.590
3364X XXXX hasn't been determined yet. That does not so we received the policy procedure
for the course syllabus, obviously a lot driven by SP one. The policy as an overview
while I would say not real.
230 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:05:18.590 --> 01:05:25.440
Little descriptive was definitely much more descriptive than what we had before as
to what needs to be in the syllabyte.
231 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:05:25.440 --> 01:05:43.620
Overall, the policy talks about the faculty being responsible for the development
of all sections and items in their course still by for all of their course sections.
Then the department has to maintain their archive of.
232 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:05:43.620 --> 01:06:03.620
All of the course sections syllabyte for that department, then the promos maintains
the three sources which are online as in the template that we have had for a while,
but it's a template, and that used to freeze SP one, it was a lot of recommended items
and a few.
233 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:06:03.620 --> 01:06:14.370
Required items and know those that list of required items has changed based on SP
one, and then the policy goes into a list of required items.
234 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:06:14.370 --> 01:06:34.370
The the part that the committee really seemed to dig into a little bit more were the
exact listing of required items that seemed to be more extensive than what SB one
required. So the big push or that takeaway from the committee was let's.
235 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:06:34.370 --> 01:06:54.370
Just stay with the SV one requirements and not add additional requirements to it.
So maybe there's some clarification. Yeah, so we can add the language, but those requirements
are either state, federal or SV one. So accreditation requirements or state not SV
one.
236 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:06:54.370 --> 01:07:14.370
Necessarily, but they're, they're required just maybe by HLC or by the state but not
necessarily in federal financially Yes yes, so they are still somewhere. Yes, they're
still all required, not, not.
237 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:07:14.370 --> 01:07:20.010
University required, but some other entity is requiring us to have them. Yes.
238 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:07:20.010 --> 01:07:36.240
Which in additional to those entities that were just spoken of, there's also various
college programmatic accreditation requirements that add to those requirements. So.
239 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:07:36.240 --> 01:07:51.270
Yeah, so, that was really the big focus was where are those items coming from? How
are they required? And then getting into the civil syllavi response.
240 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:07:51.270 --> 01:08:11.270
Which I didn't want to get into too much because that that's for another conversation,
but overall the committee broadly supported the policy SV one and other requirements
being mandated be isolated specified. Thank you for that clarification. Everything
else we made optional or discretionary.
241 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:08:11.270 --> 01:08:27.630
Clear assignment of the symbol syll by and the Kim system, so faculty art tracking
overlapping processes and then potentially less prescriptive language where it wasn't
needed.
242 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:08:27.630 --> 01:08:44.670
The, the issue that I'm running into specifically in my program is the side accreditation,
not SP one, not HLC. So.
243 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:08:44.670 --> 01:09:00.900
I'm sure that when we when we looked at simple syllapus, we track what we're and I
don't know if they're still going this route, but we wanted to have different templates
for different colleges that needed.
244 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:09:00.900 --> 01:09:20.190
That I don't know if they're still doing that, but, there is a question online, the
simple syllabus concept national state or UT only. It is a platform that we looked
at. There are other people who have other platforms. We decided to choose that platform.
245 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:09:20.190 --> 01:09:37.110
Other state schools are using it. It some seemed to have the most robust for what
we needed to comply with the the regulations, I guess. So that's why we selected to
use that.
246 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:09:37.110 --> 01:09:51.000
And I will say we've had much fewer problems with our platform than what we're hearing
from other institutions who have adopted other platforms. So we're, we're actually
pretty happy with how well simple service works and how responsive they've been.
247 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:09:51.000 --> 01:10:07.799
And we did get a, we have received, we're still waiting to see if we get any feedback,
but I have heard that there have been another, a few institutions in the state of
Ohio who have received.
248 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:10:07.799 --> 01:10:29.239
Some feedback from the states reports Yes, so they are checking, so we have not received
anything as of yet, but we thought, you know, was this just gonna be a exercise, but
NO, they are, they are looking at the syllabyte and they are.
249 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:10:29.239 --> 01:10:49.380
We're sending compliance reports so just the only other part of the committee that
kind of had decently robust conversation and even some faculty from outside the committee
shared some thoughts, had to do with the clarification of the language for the weekly
schedules.
250 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:10:49.380 --> 01:11:09.380
Does do we need topics for each week? Do we need the slos for each week with assignments
do because it didn't seem to be that that was the requirement being communicated,
maybe not by the SP one where if it's coming from somewhere else? Do we need to know
that because it didn't seem to.
251 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:11:09.380 --> 01:11:32.660
Be on simple syllabyte that we had to break it down to that level of granular level.
And I want to get clarification on that. Like, I don't think SP one was at. Just did
anything further come out in HP 96 because that's where people are getting dinged.
252 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:11:32.660 --> 01:12:06.650
We need. That was, that was another one, it's just topics, so I want to see what people
are getting back. Okay. Well, we'll look forward to hearing back on that. Any further
questions, discussion? I have one comment maybe. Thanks for the presentation by this.
Can you just save your name for the record? Oh yeah Glenn Lovescom. Thank you. I was
curious, is it possible to have if there's a required comment.
253 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:12:06.650 --> 01:12:26.650
Component what that is tied to because most faculty are very in the in the form are
filling out. Yeah. Okay. Sure. Oh, like, one. In our old template, we had guidelines
and it did say it in the guidelines like this was state. This.
254 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:12:26.650 --> 01:12:49.530
We can, we can do that certainly we can do that. Okay. It also clarifies for many
of us where all these requirements are coming from because it's like six different
spaces helps us too. Yeah, thank you. Jay, I don't know if that's a rhetorical question
or.
255 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:12:49.530 --> 01:13:09.530
What, but we'll just have to see you next week. I encourage you to write in. Say what
you think about it. Go vote. Yeah, go vote. Thank you. Thanks. Thank you James. Our
next report is from Dia co chair of the congratulation.
256 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:13:09.530 --> 01:13:37.070
And some of this also will speak to some of the questions that were just raised, all
related. Yeah, so this is the 1st time we're using the spreadsheet and you can see
that I don't know how 2016 got on there, but just imagine Imagine it's 205I don't
know how that I think I had in 2226, but be that as a.
257 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:13:37.070 --> 01:13:53.580
Okay, so if you look at, we have the alphanumeric code and then the contact person,
and then with new and change, we're identifying whether the course is new or what
was the change. And you can see that the vast majority of our changes have to do with
either.
258 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:13:53.580 --> 01:14:13.580
Updating CLOs or putting CLOs in Kim, in the Kim proposal. And then we look at confirming
overlap and for most of our courses that we have, we don't have to confirm overlap
because we're only looking at overlap if it's a new course, and we identified two
courses that we thought.
259 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:14:13.580 --> 01:14:34.730
Or new. Let's see, it's DST 4700 and then English 4180. And then of course we're looking
at the CLOs, that's what we're calling them now the course learning objectives, and
good and actionable or if you scroll down a little bit, it'll say measurable.
260 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:14:34.730 --> 01:14:55.249
And actionable and that's what we're really looking for. And then the next, the next
one gets a little convoluted. We, and we're gonna fix this later, we combined both
reading list and schedule. We're gonna create a column just for reading list and all
of the courses that.
261 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:14:55.249 --> 01:15:17.299
We're presenting today to that we'd like to forward refording to faculty Senate all
had verifiable. And then the schedule, we included the week topic CLOs because some
people put CLOs in there in their proposal and assignments are due. And we aired on
the side of what would be best for students.
262 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:15:17.299 --> 01:15:32.519
If they saw a schedule and what would make sense for them. And so you can see that
we have two things going on here with the schedule. Clos not in schedule, and that's
because we've been, we talked to a lot of people and and we looked at a lot of.
263 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:15:32.519 --> 01:15:52.519
Direction and we had like three or four different answers to go and so we were ok
if the CLOs were not in the schedule and assigned to assignments. Yeah, can I just
clarify that quickly that CLOs are in the syllabus, but they are not attached to each
assignment or reading.
264 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:15:52.519 --> 01:16:12.519
In the syllabus. So that's what you mean by CLOs not in the schedule. Right. They're
on the syllabus. They're just not attached. Through some chart to each topic. And
so the vast majority that we looked at that we want to forward to faculty Senate do
not have the CLOs specifically in the course schedule that we have that we looked
at. But those that said good.
265 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:16:12.519 --> 01:16:32.519
For us that meant that they were also in the schedule. So we have a bit of both, but
the vast majority of proposals we're looking at, something on the order of about 70
% do not include the course learning objectives in the schedule assigned to an assignment
or linked to an assignment. So.
266 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:16:32.519 --> 01:16:57.799
Are there any questions at all about these? I can go through each one of them if you'd
like. Would it mess, would it mess you up to put the course title, make a column for
the course title? No, we could do that. Absolutely. Absolutely. All right, so bio
engineering 3110, the update was changing the credit hours from three to four that
were combining two courses.
267 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:16:57.799 --> 01:17:20.119
Just to do that. It wasn't a/course that we didn't have to look for differentiation.
A/course is a course that's taught at the undergrad level and at the grad level. So
we didn't have to worry about that. We didn't have to confirm overlap because it's
not a new course. The CLOs were fine. There were NO CLOs in the schedule, but the
schedule itself was fine. And then.
268 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:17:20.119 --> 01:17:39.629
In chemical engineering, chemical and environmental engineering, they were updating
the CLOs, there was NO need to confirm overlap. There was differentiation, so this
was a/course and the differentiation was evident in the exam question, so good job.
269 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:17:39.629 --> 01:17:54.899
And it was, the CLOs were good and actionable and the CLOs were evident in the schedule,
so this was a NO brainer, well done. BLAW 4570.
270 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:17:54.899 --> 01:18:14.899
Again, NO need to confirm overlap, not a/course, the CLOs were fine, they were good
and actionable, and there was NO, there were NO CLOs in the schedule. UUID business
admin 4020, they're updating CLOs and there's NO need to confirm overlap.
271 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:18:14.899 --> 01:18:36.359
It's not a new course. It's not so not a/course. The CLOs were good and actionable,
and they were evident also the CLOs, the schedule was fine and the CLOs were in the
schedule. CSET 4350, they were updating prerequisites. There's NO need for.
272 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:18:36.359 --> 01:18:53.429
Confirming overlap, it's not a/course, so you didn't have to worry about that. The
CLOs were good and actionable and the CLOs were evident in the schedule as well and
the schedule was fine. All right. Disability studies 4400.
273 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:18:53.429 --> 01:19:13.429
They were including CLOs in Kim or through Kim in the in the syllabus. No need to
confirm overlap. It was a/was not a/course. Clos were fine, they were good and actionable.
There were NO CLOs evident in the schedule. But the schedule itself was fine besides
that.
274 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:19:13.429 --> 01:19:33.429
And then disability studies 4700 had been a special topics course and now it's being
sort of submitted as an actual course named curriculum. They confirmed overlap with
the Department of history, and I checked with the chair, my chair and she said, Yeah,
they confirmed it. Slash course.
275 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:19:33.429 --> 01:19:59.969
Course it wasn't a/course. Clos were fine, they were good and actionable, the schedule
was fine, but it did not keep CLOs. English 4180 is a new course and they did confirm
that there's NO overlap, so they checked with at least one in other department and
they confirmed that. It's not a/course. Clos are good and actionable and.
276 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:19:59.969 --> 01:20:19.969
They did a good job of presenting a nice, a very nice schedule that had also the CLOs
in it, so that was fine. EECS 4380, they were updating the course, that was the reason
for it being put in Tim. There was NO overlap. There, it is a slot.
277 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:20:19.969 --> 01:20:46.349
Dash course and there was differentiation and evidence between undergrad and grad
courses in the assignments. The CLOs were good and actionable and the schedule was
fine and it also included the CLOs. Firms 3220, they were just including CLOs. There's
NO need for overlap. It's an existing course. It is not a/course.
278 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:20:46.349 --> 01:21:05.759
Course learning objectives, the CLOs were good and actionable and the for us, for
us the schedule was fine. All the elements were there, but there were NO CLOs in the
schedule. Herm 4640, they're putting CLOs in Kim, that's what they said, but they're
moving them through.
279 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:21:05.759 --> 01:21:24.479
There is NO confirmation of overlap because it's an existing course so they didn't
have to. It was not a/course, course learning objectives were fine, they were good
and actionable, and the schedule itself was fine, but it had NO CLOs in it.
280 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:21:24.479 --> 01:21:39.719
Firm 4650, it was the the same issues that for 4640, but I'll go through it. Clos
were in Ken. They were confirming that was the change. They were confirming they did
not have to confirm overlap.
281 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:21:39.719 --> 01:21:59.719
It's not a/course, so we didn't have to worry about that. The CLOs were measurable
and actionable. Schedule itself was fine but there were NO CLOs in the schedule. And
then our last course is business administration 3000. They were updating CLOs and
there was NO need to confirm overlap. It's not a new course.
282 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:21:59.719 --> 01:22:32.209
It's not a/course, we didn't have to worry about differentiation and the CLOs were
measurable and actionable and the CLOs were not in schedule for the schedule itself.
Is there any questions about any of these proposed this 13? Yeah, I have a question.
So the two courses that overlap with other courses, do you know which ones they were,
where they overlapped with other courses? So it's that disability studies 4700 English
4180.
283 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:22:32.209 --> 01:22:52.519
I don't remember 4180, but I do know the test is with us. Yeah, the history. Yeah,
do you know which course it was? Oh, NO NO NO. It just, they just wanted to know if
it Kim Nielsen wanted to know if the course overlapped with any of our courses. Right.
The depths is in response to did that.
284 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:22:52.519 --> 01:23:12.519
They asked the question, did they see whether or not it overlapped? And yes, they
did see that it does not overlap. Yeah, that's there was oh they asked and there was
NO overlap. Oh, ok. I thought it was Yes, there was an overlap. I know all the yes
is I thought there was an overlap. Yeah. Yeah, we just say confirmation of overlapping.
285 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:23:12.519 --> 01:23:37.349
Oh ok sorry about that. Yeah, ok. I misunderstood. Thank you. So if there is overlap,
you would say confirmation and we're ok with it. It's what you would say. Okay ok
good that's very helpful. Thank you, ready. That's really important That was one of
our hugest issues in the past years is people were not checking and people were not
asking and that was really a big deal, so it's really important that the committee
is now looking for that.
286 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:23:37.349 --> 01:23:57.349
Are there any questions from the chat online or does anyone want to raise a hand?
We can't see you, but I think it can magically see you anything. Okay, I think this
just takes a recommendation from your committee. Right. No motion from the floor or
anything, correct? Perfect.
287 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:23:57.349 --> 01:24:18.239
Alright, and then we do a vote. Can you ask for a vote, please, Rob? Yes. Please,
in the chat vote yes if you approve, NO if you name if you don't approve, and in the
room? Yes. Any names?
288 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:24:18.239 --> 01:24:36.389
Any abstractions? Thank you. And I personally was thrilled to see a brand new course
and updated courses and stuff like that on this in addition to all of the other stuff.
Required of us, right? So.
289 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:24:36.389 --> 01:24:53.699
Go with disability studies in English. That's great. Our next speaker is our brand
new, not really brand new. Not brand new, but we have not metally new said it.
290 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:24:53.699 --> 01:25:09.329
Vice president of research at the University of Taledo, dr. Grace Bochneck, and she
is graciously come to share her vision and respond to any questions or comments as
possible. 1st of all, thank you everyone for the opportunity.
291 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:25:09.329 --> 01:25:29.329
To join the Senate today's meeting. For those all of you online, I guess I have to
wait till the next time to come in person to get, I don't know chocolate whatever
that might be, but it is an opportunity to to come here and join you. I do we have
a few slides that I'll share, but let me just before you just jump.
292 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:25:29.329 --> 01:25:53.759
I'll give you a little bit because I think it's important little context, you know,
I'd always like to start just by simply saying something about what it means to be
an R one especially as the VP for research and innovation. When you think about being
an R one, it puts us in a different class.
293 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:25:53.759 --> 01:26:13.759
You know, we are, and I last numbers, the numbers could have changed slightly, but
you know when you think about, you know, 4000 college and universities and there's
about a hundred and 87 could be a little bit number a little different today that
have this R one status. That puts us at that, just a little under 5 %.
294 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:26:13.759 --> 01:26:33.119
Percent of all colleges and universities in the country. And so why do I say that?
Because everything evolves from that status. You achieve that status, the university
has it. It gives us this national, this national recognition.
295 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:26:33.119 --> 01:26:54.169
And I'll just give you an example. I was just at a, all the vprs get together in the
state of Ohio. And we ended up having a separate meeting just for the R ones. I'm
happy about that. That puts us again, it recognizes our research capacity. And you
know, what does that mean? You know.
296 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:26:54.169 --> 01:27:18.419
When you think about research capacity, it means our ability to even compete, right?
Compete nationally. It reflects how we, you know, how we are building the next generation
through the discussions I just participated in and what what the faculty do and how
we engage students.
297 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:27:18.419 --> 01:27:38.419
In our research and what they, how they become part of the research enterprise. It
also has a big role in our partnership with industry because one of our roles, you
know, in, in what we do with our research is to really help industry solve some rather
complex.
298 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:27:38.419 --> 01:27:54.479
Problems and that industry could be anything from, you know, healthcare to, you know,
to the kind of the most more traditional ones that you think about, but it's a broad
spectrum, and I think it's really about our ability to translate discovery.
299 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:27:54.479 --> 01:28:11.969
You know, into impact and impact could be defined a lot of different ways. So one
of the things that, you know, you know, we'll talk more about than growing for Toledo
and a lot of what I'm gonna talk about is the research pillar today.
300 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:28:11.969 --> 01:28:31.969
But I thought it would be nice to you know since coming and yes, time must just go
quickly, right? Well, just like I feel like it was just yesterday, like I I tell everybody
when you move to a new, you know, a new institution and then you decide to move from
the south to the north, not advised to do these things.
301 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:28:31.969 --> 01:29:00.499
February was the coldest, but coldest week of the year. But since arriving, one of
the things I've been doing is listening, you know, I think it's really important to
not only listen but to try to understand what are our research strengths in some ways,
what are our institutional capabilities and capacities where you know, where might
be those opportunities and, you know, where might we see some of the challenges?
302 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:29:00.499 --> 01:29:15.659
So I do appreciate any of the conversations that I've had today because they really
helped me better understand the university of Toledo. So some of the things that,
that we'll be talking about is just to make sure that people understand, you know.
303 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:29:15.659 --> 01:29:31.379
From my view, right? So if a research strategy or research when you think about it,
it's really not just about the research awards. I know you all know that, but it's
good to hear it, right? It's good to know that it's about, you know.
304 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:29:31.379 --> 01:29:50.969
It's about not just the funding, but how you're creating the institutional environment
to allow it to grow, how how you're gonna create the environment to allow faculties
to succeed for students to succeed for the translation of discovery to impact.
305 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:29:50.969 --> 01:30:10.969
For that to succeed. So I very much see that as an important part of what the Office
of Research and innovation and what my role was to help cultivate that and help build
that, right? It also recognizes, you know, a lot of times when people think about
research, you have to think about it across.
306 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:30:10.969 --> 01:30:33.529
Knowledges across the disciplines, across what happens with the industry or with the
health care systems, right? We're all part of this large kind of ecosystem, and it's
important to see all of ourselves so that we see ourselves all the way from, you know,
again, a lot of times you think sciences and engineering.
307 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:30:33.529 --> 01:31:04.159
You gotta translate it all the way through health professions. You gotta translate
it through the the arts and communities. How do they research and what is their, what
are their impact to society? And so today I'm going to do a couple things, i'm hoping
to share a little where we are today maybe some where we're heading, some initiatives
that we're kind of pulling together to help move the research enterprise forward.
And I think that one thing that would be really helpful is, you know.
308 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:31:04.159 --> 01:31:33.049
I welcome obviously the faculty centers perspective so that we can get the strategy,
start to put the implementation together and you know help us move the University
of Toledo from as they while I don't want to point, you know, great to greater, but
we have this opportunity, right? So I'm gonna go to the 1st slide, which is just researched
by the numbers. And I think it's important to, you know.
309 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:31:33.049 --> 01:32:02.099
To just say a few things about where we are today so that you can get a little bit
of understanding of where our sponsored projects, scholarship and research has been
across the university. And I'll start with the bottom probably because that's the
herd data so a lot of people recognize that, right? And so I mean when you think about
from 2021 to 53 million.
310 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:32:02.099 --> 01:32:22.099
And then to 2025, it's 77 million. We've been on a nice trajectory, right? It's like
a 25 % increase per year even given, you know, even given the fact of what's happening
today, you know.
311 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:32:22.099 --> 01:32:42.389
In government, right? So when I look at that, I come in as the new VPR I said we're
on a good path, right? It reflects what we're doing reflects, you know, nicely, and
this kind of idea of what does that path look like if we look?
312 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:32:42.389 --> 01:33:00.869
The other part is looking at competitive external awards. Now, again, from 25 to 26,
you know, you can say that, you know, how does that reflect do you know is that concerning,
non concerning? And I would just say again.
313 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:33:00.869 --> 01:33:20.869
Think about, think about what happened in 26 and 27 on the federal side. So you had,
in 26 you had a 43 day shutdown that that shutdown created delays in appropriations
once the shut.
314 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:33:20.869 --> 01:33:50.219
Now was lifted, it compressed the whole award cycle, you had every agency having administrative
kind of delays and just these kind of disruptions, right? So an extra review was happening,
and then in 27, here we are in FY 27 and we're in continuing resolution until 11 December.
Like that's the date wrote down. Yeah, 11 December. So, again, all in all.
315 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:33:50.219 --> 01:34:08.249
Right? We've maintained great flexibility. Now there were impacts, but we still had
flexibility. So you can't, you know, while you can't control those kind of things,
what we can do is think about, we can think about.
316 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:34:08.249 --> 01:34:28.249
Maybe some of the things on the right hand side, right? And those are just the breakout
of the, you know, the FY 26 awards by source. And you can see we have a, you know,
high dependency on on federal sponsors. We'll talk about those sponsors in a minute.
But I think there's room.
317 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:34:28.249 --> 01:34:48.249
Right, so the opportunity for us is to actually, you know, maintain, do you want to
use the word maintain, increase our position or competitive position on the federal
side, but at the same, at the same time could start thinking about how we diversify
diversify ourself.
318 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:34:48.249 --> 01:35:08.429
Through corporate or state and local government or foundations. So you'll, we're gonna
start looking at our portfolio and starting to think about, you know, how do we find
those opportunities? Not only how do you find the opportunities, but then how do you
make sure that faculty are aware of them?
319 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:35:08.429 --> 01:35:28.379
And then we could position ourselves. I think the other interesting part about that
when you look at the federal awards on the bottom, right? No surprises, right? 5 %
of of NIH and we all know what happened with NIH, there's a lot of stresses on the
that agency.
320 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:35:28.379 --> 01:35:46.589
But what I call your attention to areas that are interesting to me, right? So when
I look, when I under, you know, when I look at the federal appropriations, besides
what would come out of NIH.
321 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:35:46.589 --> 01:36:06.589
The most discretionary budget comes out of the department of defense, out of the Department
of Energy. And so really thinking about what does that mean and just strategically
will be important to us. So we have to think about, and then I'm a data person, I
like to understand.
322 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:36:06.589 --> 01:36:25.139
Understand where we're at, where, where, you know, how we interface with these agencies,
what we can do potentially to create partnerships with those agencies because more
they understand the, hey, the full breadth of research.
323 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:36:25.139 --> 01:36:41.849
The more I think that you will see the kind of engagements that we want to see with
the University of Toleto, which gives faculty and students even more opportunities.
So I'm gonna I'll hold there just for a second because the data is just meant to be
a snapshot.
324 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:36:41.849 --> 01:37:05.389
I was This is Renee Heavily I was surprised that NSF is 2 %. Any thoughts about that?
I just I don't even know what to make of that. I would have to go back to see which
are and don't forget this this right here is the FY 26. And the other part is the
research, the 1st.
325 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:37:05.389 --> 01:37:23.519
Surge expenditures won't come out until December, which baffles me a little bit, but
that's kind of how the system works. So we'll get a better idea of where we're at,
even though I I don't know all our preliminary data whereabout where we're at. We're
almost flat. It's not maybe a slight down. Yeah.
326 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:37:23.519 --> 01:37:40.799
I'm not, I don't know what causes some of those things, right? I don't understand
it's like I think, I think, so what I'm trying to do with the research council is
take a more serious look at what does all this data mean? Yeah.
327 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:37:40.799 --> 01:38:00.799
You know, did you look historically that did that change a lot? Do you know? Well
I think NIH pond, there are a few of them that did. I don't have that with me, but
I think those are indicators are important though, you know, at some level. So what
what I'm trying to do.
328 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:38:00.799 --> 01:38:25.979
And two is, is make sure that, and we'll talk a little bit more but so as, as the
growing for Toleto plan starts to get neat on the bones, right? At least on the research
side, what what I'm looking at is, you know, there's institutional metrics, right?
And you'll see, you'll care about the herd data, you care about the competitive external
awards.
329 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:38:25.979 --> 01:38:42.569
But I also think I need to have indicators that that potentially will be done like
early, so we're looking at what those would be so that we can see what some of those
trends are ahead of time and then react to them. So.
330 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:38:42.569 --> 01:39:02.569
Again, try to be, you know, thinking about data, thinking about how do we understand
data, how do we diversify our funding sources? How do we create stronger proposals?
How do we create more interdisciplinary activities of which in some ways that's the
direction the federal government is taking.
331 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:39:02.569 --> 01:39:22.649
And it just happens to be what we're pretty good at. Dr. Bohanic, for the research
expenditures, does that include indirects? Yeah, that's the full number and and so
have you, I mean.
332 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:39:22.649 --> 01:39:41.459
There are maybe changes coming to indirect calculations if you mouthed it all how
that would impact this? Right, so that's a good question and I, you know, I kind of
had a hint maybe that the question on indirects and the calculations will come up,
right?
333 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:39:41.459 --> 01:39:59.969
And we could do some modeling to help predict what that might mean in terms of what,
if the federal government changes their model. I haven't formally done some formal
analysis, not, not to say that's not a really good idea to do that, to get a perspective.
334 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:39:59.969 --> 01:40:19.969
Because I've been kind of concentrating on, you know, what is our portfolio and how
do you grow it or but that's a, it's a valid point. Indirects though, if you're talking
about, you know, even the distribution inside of the university, that's a different
I'm not sure what your if your question is about what.
335 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:40:19.969 --> 01:40:39.969
That might happen if the government changes the rules and how would that impact our
expenditures? Right. Well, it'll have major impact, right? I promise you one thing
that if there's indication of that, then we'll, you know, I'll be doing a deep dive
and maybe that's a good time to come back and.
336 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:40:39.969 --> 01:41:00.239
Have a chat here and share more about that. It's on my mind, but in the conversations
I've been in all these meetings, I haven't, I haven't heard the action about it. It's
been a voice, right? But I, so could be, you know, conversation, but there's not.
337 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:41:00.239 --> 01:41:19.559
Activity that's forcing that discussion quite yet. And that's why I'm happy, you know,
I'm happy how the state of Ohio gets the the researchers together. So the vprs get
together, we're sharing, you know, we share those kind of things, APLU, same thing.
338 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:41:19.559 --> 01:41:36.629
So there's a lot of ways by which we're trying to stay engaged to stay on top of them.
No perfect answer. Wouldn't be NO fun if it was all perfect. But anyways, so this
is just a snapshot, and if there's anyone online.
339 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:41:36.629 --> 01:41:56.629
Yeah, what steps have you taken will encourage collaboration amongcologists and departments,
also federal government fundings are shrinking. Do you have any specific plan to improve
the situation? Yeah, if you don't mind or we can hold that up.
340 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:41:56.629 --> 01:42:00.449
I'm gonna come back to their questions?
341 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:42:00.449 --> 01:42:20.449
So I just want to highlight because the growing for Toleto plant, which frankly I
think is awesome an awesome opportunity and I can only reflect in some of the positions
I had prior to coming here how important you know laying out a strategy like this.
It's a more.
342 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:42:20.449 --> 01:42:37.739
Important implementation plans that align, right? And that is kind of really important.
But it's important to know that for this plan, it's to achieve a hundred million by
2031.
343 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:42:37.739 --> 01:42:53.159
So you have to step back and say, ok, that's my goal. And that's good goal. That 1st
I thought it was a little, you know, like I thought we could. I thought it was much.
344 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:42:53.159 --> 01:43:13.159
But given government where we're at, we'll see, right? So the metric is a hundred
million again competitive external awards. We want to see the higher external awards.
We were at 50 something, try to get them to 76, and then of course there's the stronger
quality.
345 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:43:13.159 --> 01:43:24.149
Pipeline of research actoral graduates, and so there's a lot of partnership that's
going on. I just can say for in this plan itself.
346 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:43:24.149 --> 01:43:44.149
Research touches different pillars. Every pillar touches each other and so this just
happens to be one pillar down, and so growth is really one of those things to talk
about. If we go to the next slide, I'm gonna spend most of my time here and they're
high level slides.
347 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:43:44.149 --> 01:44:02.279
Be a little more conversational because there is a process, right? Just like anything
else some of this stuff has already been shared with the research council and they're
digesting it, right? I'm trying to get feedback from from the research council to
help shape the goals.
348 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:44:02.279 --> 01:44:17.909
Now when you read the, the, the growing for, the growing for Toledo, you will see
that there's actually six goals for research, but one of my goals is to actually develop
the, what I call my.
349 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:44:17.909 --> 01:44:33.119
Research and innovation strategy. This last goal here I'll talk about what's called
research infrastructure. It's actually part of another pillar, but I wanted you to
see it and know that it's important to the research enterprise.
350 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:44:33.119 --> 01:44:48.209
So I want to just kind of walk through some of these and my goal is to kind of tell
you a little bit about them, give you some insight to some of the things that we're
considering as we kind of shape this, but there's these six goals, right?
351 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:44:48.209 --> 01:45:06.029
And what the goals require like anything, you know, how are you gonna create the investment,
the infrastructure, partnerships and the impacts and all of these things. So the 1st
one is grow research scale, and competitiveness. Sounds simple, right?
352 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:45:06.029 --> 01:45:23.999
But what what I'm trying to do and I think what we all want to do, we talk about it
and it's almost implied in the question that was in the chat. See, we need to grow
beyond the, you know, the research that individual faculty members.
353 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:45:23.999 --> 01:45:40.649
Identifying opportunities and then they're developing proposals independently. To
more of an interdisciplinary, how does the office then, how does an office of research
help in that process? Not only in identifying opportunities.
354 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:45:40.649 --> 01:45:59.759
But also in developing the proposals and helping support that whole process, right?
And I think that's really important to have the kind of resources. I'll give you an
example of one thing and you know, it's not live yet.
355 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:45:59.759 --> 01:46:19.759
Hopefully some of you saw the announcement about our webpage, trying to do better,
right? Trying to do better at sh at at showing you the the research resources that
you have available and who's doing them and that kind of thing. I think it's a lot
better, you know, everything.
356 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:46:19.759 --> 01:46:40.649
Needs more improvement probably, but we're in a good step. But what we are doing in
terms of having opportunities, right? There's a lot of ways and I think there was
different systems here before something called spin a lot of spin probably more than
I do, right?
357 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:46:40.649 --> 01:46:57.659
But there's new tools that'll be coming online that we'll be sharing. We're just trying
to get them up and operational right now, but it's gonna be a much better way by which
we're gonna be able to aggregate things out of the federal government.
358 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:46:57.659 --> 01:47:17.659
And then distribute them to faculty in a more continuous way besides newsletters and
things like that. So I'm working on a more systematic approach to that, which I think
is gonna be very helpful. I'll talk a little bit more about this other program, this
rocket research acceleration.
359 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:47:17.659 --> 01:47:45.859
The program in a few minutes, but it's all about this. It's all about research, scale,
and competitiveness. And how do we how do we take these promising ideas? How do we
think about interdisciplinary teams? How do we align them with competitive external
opportunities? So we'll go we'll just talk a little bit about that in a few minutes.
So, trying to build a more structured support mechanism.
360 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:47:45.859 --> 01:48:06.529
Right? I think intelligence is important, knowing opportunities, grant writing, support
and development, and then any kind of proposal assistance. So I think over the next
you'll see emphasis put on that front end, right? 2nd.
361 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:48:06.529 --> 01:48:30.710
One who's the building, you know, build national station. And, you know, we have to
build on, you know, the existing, the existing excellence if that's the right word,
but you know those areas of distinction that have been created and have been part
of the the history of the faculty and the history of the university.
362 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:48:30.710 --> 01:48:51.830
But we also have to find ways to target investments and think about these interdisciplinary
collaborations to help create that. And I believe we need to be much more intentional,
you know, and I use the word intentional because, you know, we have things, how do
we build on them, how do we scale them? Like, I like to use the words.
363 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:48:51.830 --> 01:49:16.050
Scale because if you want to grow to a hundred million, you have to start thinking
about where are those areas and how do you help bolden them, you know, how do you
help create that? So it's important for in my opinion, for us to know our strengths,
our gaps, kind of typical things you would hear when people talking about strategic
development. But in this case, they're very important.
364 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:49:16.050 --> 01:49:31.500
The pro host and I are launching and the, you know, some of the the deans and the
colleges are part of this, but one of the things when you're building national distinction
is looking at, you know, targeted cluster kind of recruitments.
365 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:49:31.500 --> 01:49:46.950
And I'm I'm happy about that because what that means is we've as a university are
making a commitment, and we're trying to build a cluster of not only research and
faculty that are in the university, but actually.
366 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:49:46.950 --> 01:50:06.950
Add to that, right? To compound our ability to make larger impacts. I also think that
it would be important and you know we're having conversations and I'm trying to figure
out how to do that, so input is welcome as we think through that, but I really want
to make sure that the fact.
367 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:50:06.950 --> 01:50:24.750
To that they can get the national recognition for their research, whether that's merits
or process, you know, I'm still trying to understand some of that, but we have to
have some mechanism and some kind of programs that help support that.
368 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:50:24.750 --> 01:50:44.750
And so this plan should help me think through that or help us think through that and
help address it. The next one is enable faculty and student research success. I don't
think I need to say much more to this group around that, right? But what it does mean
is for your success, then, you know.
369 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:50:44.750 --> 01:51:06.440
Now it means that my office, how effective is it, right? How are processes, tools,
how does it help reduce burdens so we can, you know, get on with where we, where we
need to go? So there's some of that enabling faculty sex success, not just mean about
opportunity, it also means.
370 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:51:06.440 --> 01:51:34.580
Is what needs to happen in the research enterprise and for those of us who have to
manage some of that, of course if AI, what is that article? Yeah, we don't need administratorsfied.
Either way, right? So I'm trying to open up the aperture of what we're doing. I want
more workshops. I want more training, I want more flexibility where the office of
research and innovation.
371 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:51:34.580 --> 01:51:56.120
Can cultivate learning support and you know, again, we have, we got a five year plan.
So if we understand what we're doing, and then I can make a commitment to figuring
out how to do that over over the course of the years and figure out how to invest
it. But if we can't.
372 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:51:56.120 --> 01:52:26.780
Figure out how to increase research participation for undergraduate graduate students
and then of course, you know, just to help support faculties where that's going. This
goal which is expand partnerships and innovation. So I believe and and you and I should
have started because it's really important that top, right? And I shouldn't have put
it in such little words, but the growing for Toledo, when you look at the pillar that
that you know.
373 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:52:26.780 --> 01:52:50.780
The pillar is actually titled Drive Research and innovation. So just so you know as
as I came on board, I was starting to develop my own thoughts and strategies at the
same time in parallel, the cabinet we were working on this plan. And so I kind of
like the idea of the research and innovation strategy to be called research without
boundaries.
374 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:52:50.780 --> 01:53:11.090
So, you know, we don't need boundaries. Boundaries are so confining and fought in
innovation, right? We don't need boundaries across our colleges. We don't need boundaries,
you know, with the industry, we just, you know, it's not needed anymore, right? This
kind of world we live in and where we want to go. So this research without boundaries
and then when you look at the.
375 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:53:11.090 --> 01:53:32.190
Partnership piece is really important. We need to strengthen our partnerships, and
we have so many, but I think we need to strengthen partially because you have to think
about industry, you have to think about government. You gotta think about the whole
federal lab system, national labs, all kinds of.
376 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:53:32.190 --> 01:53:52.190
Labs, right? I mean, there's just so many, let alone universities, health care, all
these regional assets. And so we're having a lot of conversations about, you know,
how do we do that collectively? Cause we all have a role in that, whether you're in
a college individually, whether you're sitting in the office of research, how do we
enable some of these things?
377 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:53:52.190 --> 01:54:20.250
And so some of the things that I'm working at, working on and I'm not working in it
in a vacuum, I'm having a lot of conversations with their means just about innovation
in the enterprise innovation. What does that mean? How do you enable innovation? I've
coined a little bit of a thing called the University of Tolido Innovation hub, which
to me is a place and a program that helps drive all of that.
378 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:54:20.250 --> 01:54:40.250
Early early discussions, but a very important part of what we're trying to do by connecting
the innovation in in the university, with industry, with others. So more to come as
that kind of comes back and hopefully the research council.
379 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:54:40.250 --> 01:54:55.770
So in the members on the research council keep disseminating some of this. Otherwise
I'm always welcome. I'll always come and tell you more. The next one is about translating
research into regional impact and.
380 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:54:55.770 --> 01:55:11.040
Again, you know, our contributions go way beyond the awards, way beyond expenditures
and way beyond the publications. And so, you know, we need to better, we need to better
artificate that.
381 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:55:11.040 --> 01:55:31.040
I hate to use the word because everybody uses it. Tell the story, we need to tell
the story. But we need to tell the story and we need to tell it on a regional level.
We need to tell it amongst ourselves and on a regional level, then we need to let
that state know about it, then we need to.
382 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:55:31.040 --> 01:55:44.970
Make sure that that national messaging comes out. So there's a nice strong partnership.
I'm glad to hear Nicole's gonna be here to talk about communications because I think
research has a big place for that.
383 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:55:44.970 --> 01:56:04.970
One of the things, and this is again when I say all of this, don't come back and haunt
me to say, Well, you said you're gonna do it. I'm gonna do it. I just gotta I'm not
sure when I can do it, right? There's a little bit of a planning, so I'll go out on
the limb to share some of these things, but I do want to start to build a annual research
and innovation impacts report.
384 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:56:04.970 --> 01:56:26.270
So that, again, it's something that the university will have that we could share with
our constituents, with our whomever, but also represents the work of the faculty and
the researchers and that'll help strengthen, you know, what we are you know major
decision.
385 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:56:26.270 --> 01:56:57.080
Our partnerships are and all the faculty scholarship and input, all of that, right?
So I'm looking at doing that. If all goes well, I'd like to have one for this year.
Well, that's my goal. I'm sticking to it we'll work on that. And then the last one
there, like I mentioned, it's actually in, shows up in the growing for Toledo in the
last pillar cause that pillar has to do well.
386 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:56:57.080 --> 01:57:17.640
With, institutional systems, but it's very important for, for me as the VPR to have,
to help support, have understanding, help influence whatever the right words are,
our institutional systems and infrastructure that support.
387 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:57:17.640 --> 01:57:32.790
The kind of research and the complexity that work that is being done in the university
and that that we plan to do. And so I think that's a really important thing to to
just recognize that there's a lot of opportunity space in there.
388 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:57:32.790 --> 01:57:54.290
And I know there's a lot of strains budget wise, but, you know, you gotta put it all
visible out there. That's how I feel most of these things and then figure out how
you plan it all the time. So that's kind of, you know, those kind of points. And then
if we go to the next slide.
389 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:57:54.290 --> 01:58:13.170
This happens to be and I know it went out in an announcement and they use right about
this rocket research acceleration program. And I think it's important and it's important
for a lot of reasons.
390 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:58:13.170 --> 01:58:33.170
Cause if you want to growth we have to build the capacity to them. And so this program
is meant to do several things, but it's meant to give opportunity, right? From, you
know, and in what we're calling an ignition award for just some early thinking, early
discovery.
391 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:58:33.170 --> 01:58:52.380
Helping you help helping faculty start a new idea, check, get some preliminary data
together. Think about who, who should be the partners, who should be the sponsors
that maybe they shouldn't be targeting. And then this idea of this trajectory, which
is a little bit.
392 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:58:52.380 --> 01:59:08.280
You know, really thinking about interdisciplinary. What is the research? How is it
going to come together? How could these teams come together? How do we posture them,
right, to be competitive? And then the last one's called an orbit.
393 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:59:08.280 --> 01:59:28.280
And the orbit is meant to be like, ok, this is major. This is a major initiative that
we have multiple faculty around the topical area by which we believe we have and can
either have, and we're building on it or we're building new areas of.
394 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:59:28.280 --> 01:59:49.430
Distinction. Each of them has different funding level, right? And what I really like
about this is a part of the the approach in the program is gonna be cohort based.
So I'm trying to take an example from, you know, a previous institution that I've
been working.
395 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
01:59:49.430 --> 02:00:08.430
And I've been working on something with actually 23 universities. I just happen to
be leading the leadership research cohort for them. So I want to bring some of those
principles in here. And so there's this cohort model, very outcome driven.
396 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:00:08.430 --> 02:00:28.430
And followed with the purpose of trying to catalyze our our research. And so this
did launch, I think it's it I think some of the 1st letters of intent or something
like that were due on November. The research council brought up some comments the
other week, and so there might be a push on the date cause it was like way too.
397 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:00:28.430 --> 02:00:50.670
No one could even think and respond. So we're addressing that and this is a big opportunity,
I believe I'm excited about this because this, this is what, you know, in my opinion
is one of the things that we needed, right? We needed to create some momentum, some
excitement.
398 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:00:50.670 --> 02:01:10.590
Some recognition that research is important to the outcomes, and this is one approach
to go to the next one that kind of that kind of brings it, I guess unless people have
questions I think the main thing is, you know.
399 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:01:10.590 --> 02:01:30.590
We have an opportunity to strengthen the University of Tolevia's research, but we
have to do it in a, you know, in a structured manner, right? Like, what are our goals?
How do we wanna deliver on those goals? And so you'll see we'll be able to do that
hopefully with all your help.
400 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:01:30.590 --> 02:01:54.770
But we can take this down and I know it's at the end of the day, do always have these
meetings at the end of the day. We do always. We're all energized so research council
weekend is eight in the morning. I'm trying to which is yeah which is the you know
sometimes brings beer.
401 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:01:54.770 --> 02:02:14.770
And why, but not allowed, right? So questions from the one question about steps we
have taken to encourage collaboration among colleges and partners. I think since com.
402 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:02:14.770 --> 02:02:37.700
Getting on board. I mean that's been my, my, my approach, right? So when you say steps
I'm trying to think of like like formal programs, the most formal program would be
this rocket research acceleration program, which is formalizing that jeez man over
the summer there was nothing but a lot of collaborations that were.
403 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:02:37.700 --> 02:03:01.230
Are occurring, and some of them occurred naturally with with or without me, I think
I help strengthen them and maybe bring other participants but I I I can't say enough
about the importance of the office of research, and hopefully my role is to help encourage
that because the kind of scaling.
404 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:03:01.230 --> 02:03:18.000
That that we want to be able to do requires multiple disciplines, multiple values,
and you know, it's a different approach not only in the proposal part, but the actual
execution.
405 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:03:18.000 --> 02:03:38.000
So I'm, you know, a good example is the, you know, the Department of Energy Nuclear
award and don't even know the number of faculty, but for sure several colleges are
involved in that and it's gonna stretch us, you know, our ability to, not the ability
to collaborate, but the ability to collaborate and execute it.
406 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:03:38.000 --> 02:03:59.150
That scale. So we have to put some things in place programmatically to help enable
that how do I improve the federal government's job? Maybe I read it wrong, but yeah,
that's the So one thing I do.
407 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:03:59.150 --> 02:04:21.090
You know, right? So some of you know my background, I spent a lot of my life in federal
government might come in handy right now and so it's really important that, you know,
that I start to put together and help support engagement strategies. So I, I understand
that.
408 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:04:21.090 --> 02:04:41.090
I don't know how many years ago, but the Department of Energy came in with their national
labs, right? That's an important engagement. If we can do that across other agencies,
I think that's important. So we have to find ways in my office has to help support
that. To create that all of.
409 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:04:41.090 --> 02:05:03.350
My ask is if we created that the faculty can engage and then you have to own it, right?
You have to help own that relationship also. Otherwise, that relationship stays connected
at the top. Ultimately really want it to be connected with the area of intersection
between your research and the needs of those interests. So that's my goal.
410 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:05:03.350 --> 02:05:10.350
My goal is to find those opportunities and to figure out how to organize them.
411 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:05:10.350 --> 02:05:30.350
At the University of Toledo, and maybe sometimes it's not at the university for us
to engage more strategically So what is that? I think last one needs lots of attention
as soon as possible. Okay.
412 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:05:30.350 --> 02:05:57.950
I think the instrumentation question was there a different question? Where is it in?
I see it, but instrumentation centers? Is that just a separate comment it looks like.
Yeah. Well, let me just tell you, I mean right now we have a lot of, there's a lot
of research policies. Several of them are going through stages of being updated. The
research.
413 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:05:57.950 --> 02:06:20.820
And institute's policy is currently in draft and we'll be going to the research council
this coming this coming next meeting cycle. It has come up about the question about
instrumentation centers and should instrumentation centers be managed at the institutional
level like.
414 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:06:20.820 --> 02:06:35.880
Have visibility like a research center and institute. That question is still being,
you know, I mean, it's not in the current draft of the new of the updated policy because
we updated it before that kind of question came up.
415 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:06:35.880 --> 02:06:55.880
But one of the things that the pro host and I are doing, and I I well again come from
a little bit crazy background, but sometimes to solve these kind of things where you're
trying to understand things, best way to do it is to use some lean six signal approaches
of where, you know, it's not about.
416 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:06:55.880 --> 02:07:25.200
Maybe it's just about the date and information. So we launched something we call the
tiger team. I just coined that word because it comes from like background again, but
it basically is, hey, we get, we were trying to understand more about our instrumentation
centers. So we we set up and chartered a small group. They're looking at that. They're
supposed to come back with, ok, what are the, what are the model, where are they at?
What are the different business models?
417 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:07:25.200 --> 02:07:45.200
What is the alternatives for becoming more efficient? Each one operates differently,
right? We have the two that I'm aware of, instrumentation centers and the 3rd I think
if you, the one on the medical campus. So each one is operating differently, so now
this team is gonna come together and between the progress and I, they're gonna.
418 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:07:45.200 --> 02:08:15.050
Work with us to better understand what, you know, is there, is there, you know, much
more efficient, a better operation that will address them? Does that help? Other questions
from the floor? Yes, David. Yep. Comments and a and a question. So the comments I
want to thank you for getting actual funds behind.
419 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:08:15.050 --> 02:08:38.390
These ignition trajectory and orbit awards because that's in addition to the current
internal funding that we look at, which has been pretty successful. So I think that's
great and I don't know if you have some idea of how many of these awards are.
420 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:08:38.390 --> 02:09:10.562
So, you know, I, I hesitate to put a number because everything is in, you know, it
needs to be flexible based on, you know, what, what, what proposals come in. I can
tell you one thing, though. I mean, I believe so I believe that put it this way, how
do I say that? If we have good proposals, we need to figure out how to how to find
good proposals. And if we need, if we have proposals that need work then we need to
figure out how to help those work.
421 "Bruce Bamber" (163454464)
02:09:10.562 --> 02:09:11.561
Right.
422 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:09:11.561 --> 02:09:15.144
So in other words.
423 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:09:18.249 --> 02:09:38.660
You know how you have those three. You know, let's be realistic. If if if NO proposals
come in that merit the the criteria we're trying to achieve for the orbit. Okay, that's
not a problem this year. Let's not worry about that. Let's just think about those
resources and where they belong so that we.
424 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:09:38.660 --> 02:09:40.530
Create this pipeline.
425 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:09:40.530 --> 02:10:00.530
Vice versa, maybe there's multiple higher level ones and we need to think about that.
My commitment to the president is to, to look at that, figure out how to balance that,
figure out how to over time grow it, and to make sure that the faculty.
426 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:10:00.530 --> 02:10:20.340
That receive these resources are unable to move. So the whole goal, the goal is to
create the right sponsor relationship, the external funding that you would like to
get into, you know, into the organization. So the numbers we have, I got estimates
for all of them.
427 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:10:20.340 --> 02:10:35.460
You know, but I, not that there's NO not there, there's NO issue there. It's just
it's better to see how those proposals go. But there's not just one in each, put it
that way.
428 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:10:35.460 --> 02:10:55.110
Which is how the the last process was a little bit more limited. It's good to hear
there might be some flexibility of directed. So my question for you is one of the
areas that clearly can grow for institution is clinical research and I know you're,
you're engaged in.
429 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:10:55.110 --> 02:11:11.850
I wonder if you could sort of update this on what you're doing it to help with the,
to support the clinical research of ventures. And that's another, you know, that,
that, that whole topic came up really early in my arrival.
430 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:11:11.850 --> 02:11:30.960
And how do we think about that? That was my 1st, that was my 1st you know effort using
my tire team approach of which, you know, of which the the Dean of college Medicine
and life Sciences and I chartered this group and they've been working diligently.
431 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:11:30.960 --> 02:11:49.110
I've already seen process changes, right? Occur, you know, sometimes people talk past
each other, right? You know, we own part of a process, the college of medicine life
science might own a different part of the process, and there was just sometimes it
was.
432 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:11:49.110 --> 02:12:08.340
Right, we're transparent, vague, so we've been laying out the process and it's much,
you know, there's been low hanging fruit to the point where there was some kind of
reporting that, you know, the Dean needed, that Steven needed, and.
433 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:12:08.340 --> 02:12:28.340
Low and behold, it took us a while just to find out what the software that we're using,
there was just a couple changes that they, you know, that Bill McCurry had to do and
all of a sudden, you know, all of a sudden now they can get these reports. So there's
some low hanging fruit in terms of process, IRB process.
434 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:12:28.340 --> 02:12:48.300
Process I don't know how else to say it unless you want to get a deeper but that's
the best way I know how to look at this, right? Especially when a process overlaps
between organizations. And I'm trying to make sure that one thing is time manners.
435 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:12:48.300 --> 02:13:07.440
Especially for clinical trials, right? And so we need to better understand the process
where those hang UPS are and then deep dive in them and address them, and that's really
what the chief is doing, and they've been doing a really good job at it.
436 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:13:07.440 --> 02:13:23.970
Thank you. You're welcome. Well, I thank everybody for this opportunity unless there's
more. Are there other questions? We got a kind of bird's eye view, other questions
from the chat or from the folks online?
437 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:13:23.970 --> 02:13:43.970
There's one Questioner. Are there plans to expand faculty support in the office of
research? I think that respect that's the acceleration program is part of that, right?
And then support for.
438 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:13:43.970 --> 02:13:46.320
From things like, you know.
439 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:13:46.320 --> 02:14:06.320
Submitting proposals, bringing them together. Oh, staff. I assume that's what the.
You know, you have to give me time to do these things. But it's really important.
That's why you're seeing some shifting.
440 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:14:06.320 --> 02:14:13.350
The shifting of it might be so I'm putting emphasis on research growth.
441 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:14:13.350 --> 02:14:32.130
Research development, which means faculty success, which means the process. So over
the summer, again, what tools do we have by which we're gathering these, these, you
know, what's coming out of federal government? We have much better, there were, there
were much better tools and we bought them and we're deploying them.
442 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:14:32.130 --> 02:14:52.130
Now, given that, you have to say, ok, well, how do you start to create more training?
What is the right training? Yeah. Right? There's a lot of work to be done when you
think about some of that, like how do you enable that? How do you grow the the proposal
support team? The whole goal is to.
443 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:14:52.130 --> 02:14:56.280
You have the office have a large, you know, grant support writing.
444 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:14:56.280 --> 02:15:12.390
Services you know you need a graphic, you need this, you need that. You have an opportunity
where I could do something across, you know, ten universities and I wanna lead it,
but I can't lead it alone, right?
445 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:15:12.390 --> 02:15:29.760
The good news is, you know, since coming on board, I spent the summer on several proposals
where I was helping lead them. So I know exactly what, you know, what, what the challenges
have been or maybe what issues are, what we need to do. But you're gonna see that
that growth.
446 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:15:29.760 --> 02:15:47.250
I'm working on a lot of those things. Scott put in about I appreciate this and so
that's good to hear because the faculty are here. You may have participated last year
in this great Lakes AI week.
447 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:15:47.250 --> 02:16:07.250
It's hosted in the Great Lakes region. One day it's at bowling Grain, one day it's
at the University of Tolito with Veterans Day in the middle. And we were asked to
to we kind of divvied out where some concentration of efforts would be. And so because
of the lottery.
448 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:16:07.250 --> 02:16:16.890
Of connections with manufacturing, with health care, with energy. Those are some of
the topical areas along with education that we're hosting.
449 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:16:16.890 --> 02:16:34.770
I'll be speaking at it. So I just encourage, I encourage faculty students to participate.
That's the 1st time doing this with the this organization for me personally, but you
know that.
450 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:16:34.770 --> 02:16:50.730
You know, again, we're moving forward with trying to concentrate a lot of our AI,
but not AI just with ai's sake and like a buzzword, but how does artificial intelligence,
machine learning, all that different kinds of knowledge based learning, how it is.
451 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:16:50.730 --> 02:17:08.880
How is intersecting a lot of the business sectors that we touch every day. So this
is, you know, it's something that's gonna be on campus, I think it would be well worth
your cut. And Steve Heller is my tiger team.
452 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:17:08.880 --> 02:17:28.880
Alright Steve, and he said for Halloween who wants to be like a tiger. Very creative
Steve. Anyway. So we will have Dr. next bet I hope you're getting your name right.
453 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:17:28.880 --> 02:17:35.310
It sounds good with.
454 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:17:35.310 --> 02:17:54.300
You know what it means to look for bread, ok? So we have to thank dr. Gray.
455 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:17:54.300 --> 02:18:14.300
Introductory meeting and so we let her off easy this time. But next time we'll have
much more time. We'll have a lot more to discuss with Doctornick next time. Now I
just want to see.
456 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:18:14.300 --> 02:18:16.890
See if there are any items from before.
457 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:18:16.890 --> 02:18:36.890
And please remember that this is not just an agenda gesture or this is something that
actually is a really important moment in the meeting. If people have an issue, they
would like the Senate executive committee to take up, if you have anything for a future
meeting, if something today wasn't completed, we will continue the discussion next
time, so please.
458 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:18:36.890 --> 02:18:45.750
So if there are any items from the floor, please bring them to our attention now.
459 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:18:45.750 --> 02:19:05.750
Okay, well that pep talk didn't work but we'll wait for your private emails. As representatives
of the faculty be our representative body and reduce their constituents, so please
be constituents and speak up and let us know what's on your mind. Thank you. Thank
you.
460 "Hubbard, Quinetta L." (3185392640)
02:19:07.260 --> 02:19:27.260
Good work, you do so much work it's so thorough, I mean it's like well it's for me.
