Speaker Harlin called the meeting to order at 3:15pm.GUEST SPEAKERS
Speaker Harlin introduced guest speaker Chancellor John Sharp.John Sharp
Chancellor John Sharp started by thanking the Senators for their service. He spoke about his recent trip to Los Alamos with the special committee of the Regents:
- Texas A&M is the only university involved at Los Alamos other than Cal Berkeley.
- Students who are interested in serving as interns are encouraged to apply.
- The budget is about $2.7 billion a year; the Regents are trying to figure out how to route some of this money to Texas A&M research at the flagship.
- There are 36 square miles of space at Los Alamos, and they do more than nuclear-related research.
- The only way that Texas A&M (in College Station) will be involved academically is to supply some faculty to the campus.
- There are currently ~1600 students; this number is expected to grow.
- Students will go to Blinn College for two years and will then will either leave, or go on to one of the ten regional Texas A&M Universities in the System.
- In terms of research, Texas A&M will be fully involved.
- The Center for Infrastructure Renewal is up and running; the only such center open for 12 months a year in the northern hemisphere.
- TTI is building their headquarters at RELLIS.
- Blinn has a new academic building; we will be building an academic complex.
- There will be a 45-megawatt data center; the contract will require them to participate with faculty and students at Texas A&M in research, and to hire students. Forty-six corporations are already on board to be a part of this data center.
- The Army Futures Command is looking for a testing site and are considering RELLIS.
Chancellor Sharp stated that the hotel on campus is finished and a percentage of the profits go to the President’s Office; after 30 years, it becomes wholly owned by Texas A&M University. He next addressed the state legislative session:
- In 2002, the state legislature contributed 55% of the general revenue at Texas A&M; today it is 35%.
- Today, tuition and fees contribute 65% of revenue. As the University grows along with the population of Texas, the state is not keeping up with the revenue growth of its universities.
- The Regents will ask the legislature for full formula funding to pay for new students, expenses and inflation.
- Hazlewood is a particular problem: the tuition loss from Hazlewood is about $24 million, about five million of that is for veterans’ own education, and rest is for legacy (children of veterans). They will continue to ask the legislature to pay for this rather than having our students pay for it.
- There are several line items in the budget that the Regents follow closely in the legislature:
- The Texas sea grant.
- Energy resources.
- The request for a tuition revenue bond of $75 million for lab space, instructional lab, and innovation learning space.
The Texas Research University Fund is our second major source of funding, and it is at $35 million; only Texas A&M and UT share in this fund. Texas A&M relies on the formula funding and will ask legislators for it to be fully funded. The tuition revenue bond is $20 million for the data center, and $75 million for the instructional laboratory and innovative learning facility. Regional campuses are also requesting funds.
Due to the excellent job of Texas A&M’s Extension offices throughout the state who helped in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, the Governor is asking for transfer of the Texas Division of Emergency Management from DPS in Austin to the Texas A&M System. The Texas A&M System will now be in charge of managing emergencies throughout the state out of our Extension offices.
Building on campus:
- Music Activities Center will be finished in a few months.
- Track and softball stadiums almost done.
- The Hotel should be the choice for conferences as funds flow back to the University.
- Near the “ring” by the Alumni Center, some former students plan to landscape the area with a lake and path around the lake.
- Spending on construction has been about a billion dollars a year for the last five years.
Other items of interest:
- This flagship has doubled the number of National Academy members in the last five years.
- The System will continue to oppose funding of a veterinary school at other Texas universities.
- Dean of Agriculture Patrick Stover is looking at creating an institute that would set the trends for healthy and quality agricultural methods.
Chancellor Sharp then opened the floor for questions.
Debjyoti Banerjee, College of Engineering
Senator Banerjee asked if the University has a SWOT analysis regarding its finances, considering political changes. Chancellor Sharp answered that our strength is the permanent University fund, of which we receive one-third with two-third’s going to UT. As long as revenue comes in from the Permian Basin oil, this will be well funded. This allows Texas A&M to collaborate on beneficial projects with the regional campuses. It is always an Texas A&M top priority to protect this fund.
Jorge Alvarado, College of Engineering
Senator Alvarado commented on the population growth in Texas, and asked the Chancellor what he thought was the best plan: to grow the College Station campus or the regional campuses. Chancellor Sharp said that this campus is not under his purview but under President Young’s, so he would not step on his toes. However, as a land grant university in a state with a growing population, it is the University’s responsibility to educate the young populace, and that Texas A&M has not capped its enrollment. The regional colleges are also growing and this will continue. Students not accepted into the flagship are encouraged to attend one of the ten regionals, which have the potential to grow faster.
Matt Kane, Texas A&M Galveston
Senator Kane shared that one of the things hindering their ability to do things for the maritime industry is the lack of a training ship. He thanked the Chancellor for his efforts so far in acquiring such a ship and asked about the future prospects of the ship for the Maritime Academy. Chancellor Sharp shared that he has been to DC multiple times regarding the ship, and that Senator Collins from Maine believes she should be next in line for a ship. While supporting this and acknowledging we are third in line, the Gulf Coast does not have a ship so we have to rent time from other ships in order for students from all over the region to get their training. While the House approved three ships, the Senate did not. Senator Cornyn and the Regents will continue to fight for this ship for Galveston.
Speaker Harlin thanked Chancellor Sharp who left the podium to applause by Senators.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Speaker Harlin shared there would be several announcements and first welcomed to the podium Traci Lacy, Associate Director of Partnership Services in the Office of the Provost to talk about the Fulbright Workshop and Reception (tlacy@tamu.edu). The workshop will be on Tuesday, February 26 from 3:00-5:00pm in 601 Rudder, followed by the reception from 5:00-7:00pm. They have scheduled the workshop earlier this year to allow plenty of time for faculty to prepare their proposals due August 1. Ms. Lacy encouraged faculty who know a young, up and coming faculty member they think might benefit, to talk to them about Fulbright. Anyone can go to ppo.tamu.edu, go to the faculty link and drop down to “Fulbright.” People can also watch the live stream via TTVN, and she will be posting the video of the workshop on the website afterwards. Ms. Lacy left pamphlets and brochures on the table near the elevators so people could take them.Speaker Harlin next introduced Catharina Laporte, Senator from the College of Liberal Arts, Chairperson of the Teaching & Transformational Learning Technologies Committee (TTLTC) to inform the Faculty Senate on the Learning Management System Change,
https://cio.tamu.edu/it-governance/committees/ttltc/lms-sc/index.php.
Senator Laporte announced that the ecampus technology would be changing as the contract for it is expiring in August 2021. The Committee is taking the last three years of this technology’s (Blackboard Learn) contract to explore other learning management systems. They decided on three products to review and sample: Canvas, Blackboard Ultra, and Brightspace. Interested parties may go to the website (link above) and find their departmental representative. The timeline for the review can be found on the website, and includes workshops to sample the products. Every faculty member has been given a login and is encouraged to participate in this process. Flyers with the dates and link were distributed to all Senators.
Ira Greenbaum, College of Science
Senator Greenbaum asked for clarification on who can access these “sandboxes” for trial. Senator Laporte responded that everyone who had an account for Blackboard last semester has had a password set up for them that they can retrieve by visiting the link (above). If they do not, they can contact the Help Desk for assistance.
Speaker Harlin next introduced Assistant Provost Tim Scott to give an update on First Year Experience (FYE) of the Student Success Initiative. Dr. Scott shared a handout with Senators on the evolution of the FYE, and then spoke about what has happened since hearing concerns from the November 2018 Senate meeting. In late November, they made the decision to pilot the program to with many fewer students rather than a full mandate in 2019. They also formed a FYE Advisory Committee, with 13 faculty members on the committee, of whom six are Faculty Senators. On December 17, Meredith Malnar, Director of First Year Experience, and Dr. Scott attended the Faculty Senate’s Academic Affairs Committee meeting, answered questions, and provided feedback. The FYE Committee continues to
meet to define the common outcome and what it will look like, with the intention of coming back to the Senate for consultation and to seek approval going forward. The handout also includes the units who have asked for briefing on the FYE and how they might participate.
Dr. Scott also wanted to share that they had brought in two experts on FYE, Cassandra Alvarado from the University of Texas, and Tim Rennick from Georgia State. Both of these institutions have had remarkable achievements with four-year graduation rates and reducing achievement disparities. Both have implemented first year experience although the models are very different: Georgia State embedded it in the curriculum and mandated that faculty teach it, while the University of Texas did not offer it as a for-credit course citing it was not academic content, but offered it as a 0-credit course and not required for graduation. Texas A&M have followed this second model, choosing not to place a greater burden on faculty, although faculty who are interested in teaching a small group are encourage to do so. UT opens it up to any professional staff member. At this point, Dr. Scott paused for questions.
Clint Magill, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences
Senator Magill sought clarification on the mandate. Dr. Scott responded that they have opted for the FYE not to be part of a degree or graduation requirement, but believes all freshmen should attend. If they refuse, there is nothing to compel the student.
Jorge Alvarado, College of Engineering
Senator Alvarado asked that while the FYE is not a graduation requirement, it would be up to the department to make that decision, which Dr. Scott confirmed. Senator Alvarado received greater clarification from Senator Angie Price Hill on the first year requirement within Engineering.
Speaker Harlin asked if Dr. Scott could share the names of the six Faculty Senators on the FYE Committee, which he did: Angie Hill Price, Gonzalo Rivera, Andrew Klein, Catharina Laporte, Dan Collins, and Hamed Aly Ismail. She then shared her appreciation of how responsive the Provost’s Office has been to the Senate’s concerns and that when implementation occurs it will be beneficial to all students.
SPEAKER COMMENTS
Speaker Harlin began her comments with a welcome back from Winter break, encouraging everyone to enjoy the people in our lives, and to choose joy in all aspects of our lives. She then shared the recent Faculty Senate highlights:- The Task Force on the Dean and Department Head SAP met January 11 and have another meeting scheduled for January 18. The Committee is making significant progress in creating a draft to share for review later this spring. Thank you to Senators Claire Katz, Clint Magill, Deb Banerjee, Adam Kolasinski, Jose Fernandez-Solis, Angie Hill Price, Jay Ramadoss, and Grace Townsend for serving on this important committee.
- An update on the scheduled Speakers for the spring Senate meetings. In February, Dr. Mark Barteau, Vice President for Research; in March, Dr. John August, Dean of Faculties; in April, Scott Woodward, the Athletic Director and members of his team; and in May, Robin Means-Coleman, Vice President and Associate Provost for Diversity will be here with members of her team. If Senators have specific questions for our guests to address, they should let the Senate Office know two weeks prior to the Senate meeting.
- Some of our Senators will be participating in the Orange and Maroon Day in Austin in February. Thank you to Andrew Klein, Speaker Elect, for organizing our efforts. Thank you to Andrew Klein, Angie Hill Price, Jim Woosley, Alva Ferdinand, and Dale Rice for taking the time to attend this important meeting with our former students, UT colleagues, and legislators in Austin.
- Senators should be on the lookout for an RSVP for the Joint Meeting with University of Texas on Monday, March 4, in Austin. Though not everyone will be able to attend, we hope to send a large cohort to Austin for this meeting. Transportation will be provided to Austin and back with lunch provided by the UT Faculty Council. So, mark your calendar for Monday, March 4, and look for the RSVP form in your inbox soon. This will be a great opportunity to engage with our colleagues at UT-Austin.
- As a reminder, the March Senate meeting has moved from March 11 to March 18 due to Spring Break.
- Now would be a good time for our committee chairs to look at the March calendar and determine if changes may need to happen for your committee meetings. With the Joint meeting and the change of the Senate meeting, it is possible that there will be an overlap in activities. If you need help scheduling a different location for your committee, please let Betsy know.
- With the now historic government shutdown, contact Government Relations if your division or department has been impacted, particularly with access to federal funding.
Speaker Harlin concluded her comments with congratulations on the start of another spring semester, wishing everyone success in what will be a busy time for all.

COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE
Speaker-Elect Klein asked for any business for the Committee of the Whole.David Earnest, College of Medicine
In light of the recent email to the campus celebrating the anniversary of Workday, Senator Earnest felt it was important to share some serious concerns relating to the role of Workday in the hiring of staff. This has become an urgent concern for those hiring research staff. He was told it would take a minimum of three months just to post a position. In his 25 years at A&M prior to Workday, Senator Earnest found that it took a maximum of one to two weeks to post a position. He was further told that the entire process including interviewing and onboarding would take a minimum of six months. He is currently four months into the process of hiring under his grant and still has not hired anybody. He has been informed by various business offices that part of the problem is in the duplicity of processes, in which there are two tiers of the same approvals required. A second problem is the lack of sufficient personnel in both the college business offices as well as the main HR office. The problem this presents for researchers is that if they have a short, two-year grant, a six-month delay in project start-up reflects poorly onto the researcher’s productivity and reputation in terms of future funding.
Senator Earnest then read a quotation from his colleague, Senator Paul de Figueiredo, regarding the impact on his large, $15.2 million contract with the Department of Defense. The team was expected to hire twelve staff members in two months, but the delays caused by Workday put their grant in jeopardy. He believes that if the University wants to be competitive on such large grants with government agencies, Workday must be immediately replaced with a functional system.
Angie Hill Price, College of Engineering
Senator Hill Price started by seconding the previous concerns. The item she brought to the Committee of the Whole concerned parking at RELLIS. A&M built a parking garage at RELLIS, but since it is not an A&M facility they plan on charging for parking for everyone at a pro-rated rate, rather than wait to implement these charges in the fall of 2019. There are people who have scheduled to teach classes there without this information who might otherwise have chosen not to teach there.
Speaker Harlin added that while most people think of RELLIS as the new buildings, a number of departments operate in the older buildings that comprise the whole 2500 acres. Many of these old buildings have unpaved lots that are not maintained. Faculty was informed in December that anyone who has a Texas A&M permit will have to also pay for parking at RELLIS, too late to make any changes to courses. She was informed in a meeting with Transportation that not just faculty but students will now be able to add parking there for $110, pro-rated from February. This includes parking in all lots, not just the new garage. Transportation will not budge from their desire to have everyone pay for parking at RELLIS. They did say they would be providing bus service picking up at MSC and Wehner, but no pick up on west campus, and dropping off only at the new lots. The distance from the new lots to a building such as Agriculture’s is about a mile through muddy fields.
Catharina Laporte, College of Liberal Arts
Senator Laporte expressed similar concerns by the department of Architecture. They have an Architecture lab at RELLIS that is mainly staffed by volunteers who have been able to park for free in the gravel lot. Now they are expected to pay for parking in an unpaved lot. Additionally, professors who teach there did not know they would have to pay for parking and would not have signed up to teach there if they had known. She suggested that the Senate or collective departments as one voice put forth a motion for a reciprocal parking agreement such as the Galveston campus has.
Senator Laporte also expressed concerns for the hiring in Workday. She hired two people last semester who worked the first five months without pay due to Workday problems, and felt this was totally unacceptable.
Speaker-Elect Klein asked Senator Laporte if she would like a motion to move forward in the Senate today, or if she would accept the issue being taken up by the Executive Committee. She expressed a desire that small departments who are impacted be given a voice on this issue.
Speaker-Elect Klein shared that the issue can be moved out of the Committee of the Whole into the meeting where a motion could be made if 75% of the body so approves.
Stefanie Harris, College of Liberal Arts
Senator Harris expressed concerns about the Workday hiring issue. Her department is trying to do a faculty hire, and have a completely separate, redundant process because none of the materials can be loaded into Workday. All of the materials are being sent to her assistant who is loading everything into eCampus for the search committee. She asked if the Dean of Faculties Office knows of movement in proceeding with Interfolio for faculty hiring.
As Executive Associate Dean of Faculties Blanca Lupiani approached the microphone, Speaker-Elect Klein congratulated her on the just announced appointment for her to be the new Dean of Faculties.
Blanca Lupiani, Office of the Dean of Faculties
Dr. Lupiani thanked everyone for the recognition. The Dean of Faculties (DoF) Office has finished paperwork for Interfolio and has met with them regarding implementation, but it will take around six months before it is functional. It will not replace Workday, but should be integrative once it is set up.
Angie Hill Price, College of Engineering
Senator Hill Price proposed surveying the departments across campus to see if and how they are impacted by the new parking charges at RELLIS, especially the departments who have a longstanding presence there. This can then inform our resolution.
Speaker-Elect Klein shared that Speaker Harlin is happy to work on such a survey, so we will not move on a motion or resolution at this time.
Speaker-Elect Klein turned the meeting back over to Speaker Harlin.

The meeting was adjourned at 4:43pm.
