In its meeting Thursday, the MU Faculty Council spoke positively on a proposal to better represent non-tenure-track faculty in the council. The proposal would amend MU's faculty bylaws to allow non-tenure-track faculty to vote on the faculty councilâs membership and be elected themselves. The resolution would require a minimum of four tenured or tenure-track representatives on the council and a minimum of four nontenure-track representatives, as well. The council would increase in size from 25-30 representatives to 30-35 and have slightly more during the gradual transition. âIt would be particularly beneficial, from our officeâs side, for faculty council to be more representative of the full body of faculty,â T. Chris Riley-Tillman, associate provost for institutional effectiveness, said. Unbalanced representation necessitates cumbersome processes, he said, in hearing from all full-time faculty.
