ALLFACULTY LISTSERV INFORMATION
last updated
05/16/08
Hello, and welcome to the UofA's Allfaculty listserv.
We know that you don't want to be bombarded with e-mail messages, so let us assure you that this listserv will be used infrequently.
The purpose of the listserv, which was created in 1999 in response to a survey of UA faculty members, is to enable your elected Faculty Officers (the Chair, Vice Chair, and Secretary of the Faculty) to communicate quickly with all faculty when we feel that a particular item of information is URGENT, BRIEF, and of interest to a MAJORITY OF THE FACULTY.
This is NOT a forum for discussion, and indeed, it is not possible to respond directly to the list. When feedback on a given item is appropriate, the message itself will tell you where to direct that feedback.
Examples of the types of messages that are distributed via this listserv include (but are not limited to):
Messages on this listserv usually arise out of the UA's shared governance process. Suggestions for items to be posted are welcome, and should be sent to Pam Bridgmon at the Faculty Center (bridgmon@u.arizona.edu). Listserv policy requires that all three elected faculty officers agree that each message is appropriate for the Allfaculty list - i.e., that it meets the criteria of being urgent, brief, and of interest to a majority of the faculty.
Although we hope you won't avail yourself of this option, it is possible to remove yourself from this listserv by contacting Pam Bridgmon (bridgmon@u.arizona.edu or call 621-1342). Otherwise, you'll be hearing from us, but not very often.
WANDA H. HOWELL, Chair of the Faculty,
University Distinguished Professor of Nutritional Sciences
ROBERT P. MITCHELL, Vice Chair of the Faculty & Presiding Officer of the Faculty
Senate, Librarian
J.C. MUTCHLER, Secretary of the General Faculty & of the Faculty
Senate, Asst. Professor, History, UAS
