I expect also to appoint a student representative to the committee after I meet with the Student Senate Wednesday 6 October 1999. This committee should evaulate the current University committee structure with a goal determining which committees should fall under the purvue of the faculty and report to the Senate rather than to the administration. The Campus Planning Committee is a possible exemplar of such a committee. If possible, this ad hoc committee should report back to the full Senate by the December meeting with an appropriate motion to deal with the matter . The University of Oregon has a long tradition of shared governance and the committee structure is an important part of this tradition. Nathan infoms me that you have agreed to serve on this committee and let me express my appreciation and grattitude for your willingness to under take this important task.

The goal is to determine which committees should report to the administration, the Senate or both. It is my expectation that we can accomplish this goal with a minimum of time and effort. With forethought and some organization, we may be able to accomplish this in a couple of meetings. I propose that we meet sometime towards the latter half of next week (week of Oct 4th). I have invited Ann Tedards to join us for this first meeting to share her knowledge on this topic (I also hope she wil remain with us to provide guidance throughout this task). I suggest that we block out 2 hrs for our first meeting in order to map out our work and begin to accomplish our goals. It is best for me to meet either in the morning (9-11) or in the late afternoon (4-6) on Wed, Thurs or Fri. Can you please let me know which of those times are good for you? Thanks very much for agreeing to help out with this. Nathan From jessica@gladstone.uoregon.edu Sun Oct 17 23:23:59 1999 From: "Jessica E.
