HSU GENERAL FACULTY

The purpose of the General Faculty organization is to provide an instrumentality to assure that the collective knowledge, experience, and judgment possessed by the members shall be as fully utilized as possible in providing students with educational opportunity, in developing university policies and procedures, and in fostering a spirit of unity and cooperation among its members.  Membership in the General Faculty is defined in the “Constitution of the General Faculty of HSU” (HSU Faculty Handbook, Appendix E).

Through the Academic Senate, the function of the General Faculty is to formulate and recommend, to the University President, policies for the University affecting matters of common concern to the General Faculty; to implement authority assigned to it by the University President; to assist in the selection of future presidents of the university and future administrators of high rank; and to act for the faculty in other matters within its jurisdiction.  The “Bylaws and Rules of Procedure of the Academic Senate of HSU” are found in Appendix F of the HSU Faculty Handbook.
