KS Faculty ' s Policies Determined by Senate The Faculty Senate to a large extent, controls the policies of the Kansas State university faculty. The Senate normally met the second Tuesday of each month, at the close of each semester, includ- ing summer school, and when called. Any faculty member could attend meetings, but only Senate members were allowed votes. The Faculty Senate had control of all matters dealing with covirses and curriculums to be offered at K-State, and approved candidates for both grad- uate and undergraduate degrees from the Univer- sity. The Senate has the authority to participate in establishing policies for supervision and control of student affairs, faculty affairs, and public relations. It also was concerned with the formulation of poli- cies pertaining to many all-University problems. The Facultv Senate was concerned with the vari- ous phases of the over-all academic program and extra-curricular activities, and determined personnel policies such as faculty selection, assignment, re- muneration, leaves, improvement of instruction, and retirement. It also directed relations between the University and the public within the state and nation. Membership on the Faculty Senate consists of two elected senators from each vmdergraduate school and the Extension division, plus one senator for every 35 faculty members in that school or di- U.Beattv, vision. «l,DiRltll iktlMii.
