Where can I find them? 16:02:43 From Deb Chatterjee : What about accreditation issues for degree programs? 16:03:50 From Deb Chatterjee : So, already accredited programs can still be on the block? 16:04:25 From Deb Chatterjee To Tom Mardikes(privately) : How are accredited programs be phased out? 16:04:38 From Anthony Shiu : How does this program review initiative relate to the Chancellor’s optional 15% permanent budget decrease? 16:05:15 From Tom Mardikes To Deb Chatterjee(privately) : i don’t know. They will just give them up. i do not think independent accreditation will protect any programs 16:06:18 From Deb Chatterjee To Tom Mardikes(privately) : So even if the programs like Engineering are ABET accredited, and academically vibrant, they can still be cuT/ 16:06:23 From Deb Chatterjee To Tom Mardikes(privately) : cut? 16:07:05 From Tom Mardikes To Deb Chatterjee(privately) : it they are too expensive, have no students, students don’t get jobs and loaded with faculty. that’s my understanding 16:07:36 From Deb Chatterjee To Tom Mardikes(privately) : That is fine. Those are weak programs and ABET would not support such programs either. 16:10:33 From Deb Chatterjee : But why programs and units that are vibrant by all metrics, be under the scanner? 16:19:50 From Deb Chatterjee : I agree with Stephen. 16:25:58 From Mark Patterson To Tom Mardikes(privately) : Clarification question-- so Senate is charged with 2 roles -- 1) help with program evaluations; 2) provide consulting how/if to cluster departments together and how? 16:26:41 From Tom Mardikes To Mark Patterson(privately) : yes. you want to be involved? We actually want a couple of folks involved who are NOT on the bubble:-) 16:27:15 From Mark Patterson To Tom Mardikes(privately) : i would like to be involved more as a 'foot soldier' -- i'm good with data analysis. 16:27:47 From Mark Patterson To Tom Mardikes(privately) : i don't have time to head up a sub-committee; but I can be a member and do focused tasks. 16:27:48 From Tom Mardikes To Mark Patterson(privately) : will put you on that task force. when the work of the two groups is done we come together and integrate it all 16:28:19 From Mark Patterson To Tom Mardikes(privately) : cool. ok. 16:31:55 From Jamie Hunt : https://info.umkc.edu/unews/umkc-tuition-and-fees-rise-2-3/ 16:32:52 From Jamie Hunt : I had a faculty raise the concern regarding the comment from the UMKS Spokesperson - "UMKC spokesman John Martellaro said the cost of faculty salaries left the university with little choice but to raise tuition." There was no mention of the pay cuts we are taking and still providing the same workload level. 16:33:11 From Jamie Hunt : *UMKC 16:33:32 From Anthony Shiu : Administration, Athletic, and Non-UMKC Entities Salaries: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hdWXW1KcZwrc73E9hbKcNUAoyhSjCptocLdsar74r0c/edit?usp=sharing 16:40:06 From Mark Patterson : Clarification question-- program evaluations involve hospital hill programs as well? 16:40:13 From Jenny Lundgren : yes, all programs 16:40:20 From Mark Patterson : ok thanks! 16:42:29 From Mark Patterson To Tom Mardikes(privately) : ok. good to know.. thx 16:43:27 From Jenny Lundgren : Honors college is going back to an honors program as of next academic year. There will be no dean. 16:50:19 From Theresa Torres : Another point I want to add is the College dropped their requirements that were above the Gen Ed which is a way to increase students in the college and be more competitive with other universities. 16:51:18 From Tom Mardikes To Theresa Torres(privately) : the College should have done that ten years ago! It would be completely different now if that had changed. 16:52:10 From Theresa Torres To Tom Mardikes(privately) : Yes. I agree but now we can do more recruiting. 16:52:59 From Erik Olsen : I need to sign-off and get to my evening class early to meet a representative from Instructional Technology.

Thats more than enough room to house the entire college. We could go off shore, face to face courses on board, online for everyone. The cruise director would serve as dean. We would make a ton of money! 17:01:52 From Dani Wellemeyer : here at the bottom of the page: https://www.umkc.edu/coronavirus/communication-protocol/index.html 17:02:40 From Tom Mardikes To petermorello(privately) : you crack me up! 17:02:59 From David VanHorn : I recommend making a link on your browser...
