The University

New Student Aid Plan Announced

The University is taking initial steps toward a long-range goal of eventually meeting the full financial need of undergraduate students. Two groups of students­recipients of Holy Cross grants and Notre Dame scholars -will be the first to benefit.

Recipients of Holy Cross grants are minority students selected for their academic potential and proven ability to overcome social or economic disadvantages. Notre Dame Scholars are designated by the Admissions Office as the best-qualified among admitted students. The number of students in both groups will be increased significantly, adding to the academic quality and racial and ethnic diversity of the student body.

The board of trustees had authorized spending $5 million from unrestricted gifts over the next four years to meet the financial need of Holy Cross grant recipients and Notre Dame scholars. The trustees also announced a phased effort over the next 10 years to increase the endowment for student aid by a total of $100 million and apply the increased income to the new student aid plan. In addi­tion, the University has committed the bulk of the revenues from the 1991-1995 football television contract with NBC to this endowment and most of the net pro­ceeds from the Orange Bowl football game last January 1 are going to general scholarship endowment.

This financial commitment excludes grants to athletes and ROTC students, as well as tuition remission for faculty and staff children. Apart from these groups, 43 percent of undergraduates have financial need. This need is deter­mined by subtracting from the annual cost of a Notre Dame education (currently about $16,300) an expected family contribution, individually and independently determined. Students are also expected to help underwrite their education through part-time campus employment and student loans.

Spring Enrollment Totals Announced

Enrollment for the 1990 spring semester at Notre Dame totaled 9,829, up slightly-from 9,725 during spring semes­ter last year, according to a report prepared by the Registrar's Office. Male students totaled 6,378; female, 3,451.

Those seeking degrees totaled 9 ,585. Of these 7,506 are undergraduates (4,903 male; 2,603 female). The College of Arts and Letters enrolled 2,597 undergraduates; Business

321

Administration, 1,462; Engineering, 888; and Science, 808. Undergraduates enrolled in the Freshman Year program totaled 1,832. (There is some duplication of students between colleges.)

Degree-seeking post-baccalaureate students numbered 2,099 (1,365 male; 734 female). Graduate school enroll­ment was 1,225. Law School students totaled 525 and graduate business students, 349.

Students enrolled in Notre Dame non-resident programs, principally foreign studies, totaled 322.

Schmitz Named Valedictorian

David]. Schmitz, a math major from De Land, Fla., has been named valedictorian of the 1990 graduating class. He will deliver the valedictory at the May 20 commence­ment exercises.

Minutes of the 233rd Graduate Council Meeting March 28, 1990

Dr. Nathan 0. Hatch opened the meeting at 3:30p.m. on March 28, 1990, in Room 121 Hayes-Healy Center.

Members absent and excused: Dean Francis J. Castellino, replaced by Dr. John G. Duman; Dean Anthony M. Michel, replaced by Dr. Jerry T. Marley; Mr. Robert C. Miller, replaced by Dr. George E. Sereiko; Dr. Joseph A. Buttigieg; Dr. Dian H. Murray.

Guests of the council: Dr. JoAnn DellaNeva; Mr. Arsene Balihuta.

I. Minutes of the 232nd Meeting

The minutes of the 232nd meeting were approved without change.

II. Proposal for the Combined B.A.-M.A. in the Department of Romance Langauages and Literatures

Dr. Hatch called on Dr. JoAnn DellaNeva, chair of the Department of Romance rLanguages and Literatures to present the proposal.

Dr. DellaNeva said the proposal stemmed from a Depart­ment of Modern and Classical Languages self-evaluation prior to the division of the department. Its goal is to im­prove the quality of the Romance Languages and Litera­tures M.A. program by attracting good students from among the department's own undergraduate majors. Some majors are already enrolled in graduate courses. Their presence in the M.A. program would mak~ it more attractive to good students outside the University.

Dr. Loux said he fully endorses the proposal, and does not consider its provision for "double counting" two 400-level courses for both the B.A. and M.A. degrees a problem.

Dr. Klein stated that he also.supports the proposal, and that the only aspect he had questioned was the double counting.

Dr. Goerner inquired about the advantage of double counting.

327

Dr. DellaNeva said the only double counting allowed would be the application of two 400-level courses to the requirements for the M.A. Double counting would not be possible between undergraduate majors.

Dr. Loux said that not allowing double counting would decrease the undergraduates' opportunities to take elec­tives.

Dr. Kenney wondered if the department's better majors would not go off to other graduate schools, leaving the poorer ones in Notre Dame's program.

Dr. DellaNeva replied that the proposed B.A./M.A. would allow good Notre Dame majors to enhance their creden­tials as applicants to Ph.D. programs at other schools.

Dr. Varma asked if good undergraduates might not feel pressured to remain here, possibly to their disadvantage in completing their graduate education.

Dr. DellaNeva said that students could apply for the combined B.A./M.A. in the junior year and then decide to apply elsewhere as seniors.

Dr. O'Connor noted that in philosophy there are some M.A. programs which make students more attractive as Ph.D. applicants. Since there would be two kinds of students in the Romance Languages M.A. program if the proposal is approved-those beginning as Notre Dame undergraduates and those coming in with the B.A. from other schools-what, he wondered, would be the "market value" of the M.A. program? How would the program meet the needs of both kinds of students?

Dr. Welle replied that it is difficult to generalize about the department's M.A. students. Some come from Latin America to explore the possibility of an academic career in the United States.

Dr. DellaNeva added that some simply want to attend Notre Dame, possibly because of its Catholic affiliation. Others want to try graduate work before deciding whether or not to go on for the Ph.D.

Dr. Connolly asked how many graduate assistantships the proposed program would involve, and whether everyone would get financial support.

Dr. Del!aNeva said the department had not planned that far in advance, but she supposed a small number of assistantships would go to Notre Dame students choosing the combined B.A./M.A.

Documentation

Dr. Loux noted that the proposal is not contingent on the department getting new funds.

Dr. Connolly asked and was told that a shortage is antici­pated in the field of romance languages.

Dr. Varma wondered if students coming from another school would be allowed to transfer two 400-level courses into the department's M.A. program.

Dr. DellaNeva said they would not. Only Notre Dame majors would have this option.

Dr. Marley inquired if 500-level courses taken by Notre Dame undergraduates could be applied to both their undergraduate major and the M.A., thus increasing the amount of double counting and diminishing the quality of the graduate degree.

Dr. DellaNeva said this would not be possible.

Dr. Hatch suggested that the council might best devote its discussion to consideration of the overall validity of the proposed B.A./M.A. program. The quality of a graduate degree, he pointed out, is really a function of the quality of the department, in this case, the Department of Ro­mance Languages and Literatures.

Dr. Cohn asked if the department intended to develop a Ph.D. program, and if so, does the present proposal lead in this direction.

Dr. DellaNeva said the department hoped eventually to offer the Ph.D., but it must succeed with the M.A.

Dr. O'Connor expressed concern about a Notre Dame student in his or her fifth year-the second in the pro­gram-serving as a teaching assistant for Notre Dame undergraduates with whom there might be some personal association.

Dr. DellaNeva commented that it would be unfair to restrict good M.A. candidates who had done their under­graduate work at Notre Dame from serving as T.A.'s.

Dr. Welle added that T.A.'s serve in lower level courses, and thus the likelihood of encountering friends as stu­dents would be diminished.

Dr. Kim asked and was told that Notre Dame undergradu­ates applying to the M.A. program would follow the same application procedures as students from other institutions, except they would not be required to submit a language tape.

328

Dr. Hatch noted that the combined B.A./M.A. program should be viewed as experimental. He then called for a motion to endorse the proposal.

The motion to endorse passed, with Dr. Varma abstaining.

Dr. Varma expressed concern that allowing double counting of two 400-level courses by undergraduates from Notre Dame would both dilute the requirements for the degree and put good students from other institutions at a disadvantage.

III. Report of the Committee on Doctoral Student Teaching

Dr. Hatch called on Dr. Edward A. Goerner, chairman of the committee and a member of the council, to present the report.

Dr. Goerner said that since the members of the council had read the committee's report, he would limit his remarks at this point to calling for two "friendly amend­ments." The first would limit the TOEFL requirement in recommendation #8 to those international students whose native tongue is not English. The second would require each department to prepare a.written statement of its teacher training strategy.

Dr. Kenney asked if the various strategies embodied in the departments' written statements would be an alternative to the services of the report's proposed Center for the Development of Teaching Skills.

Dr. Goerner replied that the report does not recommend that departments be required to work with the center. The amendment would simply require that each department have some strategy in place to address the need for teacher training.

Dr. Hatch commented that he would prefer that the council focus its discussion on the report's main recom­mendations rather than on their implementation.

Dr. Klein wondered if recommendation #2 is too severe, since some Ph.D. students come with sound teaching credentials and might well take responsibility for a course before achieving ABD status.

Dr. Loux pointed out that the ·only area in which graduate students take responsibility for a course early in their career is the Freshman Writing Program.

Dr. Goerner noted that the report does not outlaw early responsibility for a course; it simply calls attention to the undesirability of making this a common practice.

Dr. Klein wondered if graduate students who are not interested in careers involving teaching will regard the new emphasis on teacher preparation as a hindrance to the program.

Dr. Goerner replied that the report takes this into account by defining teaching broadly enough to include even grading. Students headed for careers outside academic institutions should not find any teaching requirements much of a problem.

Dr. Hatch asked if evaluation of teaching assistants each semester is really feasible.

Dr. Duman noted that the Biological Sciences faculty had objected to an earlier departmental requirement of written evaluation of graduate student teaching.

Mr. Canales commented that the virtue of the committee's report is that it encourages attention to preparation for teaching for persons whose careers will in fact be in academic institutions.

Dr. O'Connor said the report also encourages a "tighter fit" between pursuit of excellence in graduate studies and excellence in the education of undergraduates.

Dr. Duman stated that he agrees with the spirit of the recommendations, but is concerned about costs in view of tight money for graduate student support.

Dr. Hatch observed that the principal cost would be to hire a staff member in the Graduate School to direct the proposed Center for the Development of Teaching Skills.

Dr. Duman wondered if the center would be delayed until resources for graduate student support are improved.

Dr. Meara said she favors the proposal, but wished to indicate four aspects of the report about which she is concerned: 1) In addition to expenditures of funds, there will be indirect costs in terms of faculty time. 2) Recom­mendation #6 may create too many awards. 3) Recom­mendations #2e and #4c may involve higher salaries for ABD graduate student instructors than are warranted. 4) The language of the report should refer to "she" as well as "he" in all appropriate places.

Dr. Cohn said he too lik~s the report, but feels there should be clear statement in the preface of the problems the report seeks to address. This would allow better evaiuation of the proposed solutions.

Dr. Goerner commented that it is difficult to state the problems precisely across so great a diversity of programs.

329

Dr. Hatch wondered if a Teacher/Course Evaluation (fCE) should be required for teaching assistants, since the only real question is the person's effectiveness as a teacher.

Dr Loux said the Graduate Council should not put itself in the position of devising precise rules in regard to teacher preparation. The primary impact of the report, he thought, will be its consideration across the University in College Councils, departmental faculty meetings and perhaps the Academic Council. This kind of broad discus­sion ought to precede any implementation of the report's recommendations.

Dr. Hatch noted that the report will take time to imple­ment. There will be no money for this purpose next year.

Dr. Meara said much in the committee's report had been covered by the 1988 Report of the Task Force on the Quality of Teaching in a Research University. She sug­gested that the committee refer to the Task Force report in the present document, since there is a sense in the University that nothing much has been done about teaching.

Mr. Balihuta commented that the report did not fully consider the primary interest of graduate students, which is to finish their degrees.

Dr. Duman asked if the council could get information on the proposed orientation program for teaching assistants.

Dr. Goerner replied that orientation would be a matter for discussion between the departments and the proposed Center for the Development of Teaching Skills.

Dr. Varma expressed the hope that the report would be studied and discussed and would lead to action by the departments. He also suggested that since the new center would serve both faculty and students, its funding should come from some budget other that the Graduate School's.

Dr. Loux said this would probably be the way the center would be supported.

Dr. Hatch noted that the Graduate School needs to develop both a strategy for University-wide discussion of the report and a plan for implementation of its recom­mendations.

Dr. Le inquired about council action on the report's definition of a teaching assistant.

Dr. Hatch said the Graduate School will assume responsi­bility for developing a list of teaching assistants each year. These will qualify for whatever benefits T.A. status entails.

IV. Chairman's Remarks

Before closing the meeting, Dr. Hatch made the following announcements:

1. Professor Stuart McComas (Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering), Gary Gutting (Philosophy) and Jeanne Day (Psychology) have been elected to the Graduate Council. They will serve for three years.

2. A committee has been approved from the council to select the first recipient of the Graduate School Award for distinguished contribution to graduate education. The award will be presented to a member of the Notre Dame faculty at the president's dinner in May.

3. Beginning this year, the vice president for Graduate Studies' annual commencement weekend reception for degree recipients and their families will include an awards ceremony for distinguished graduate students.

4. The application forms for the Graduate School will be redesigned to make them more attractive, and to allow applicants to submit all or most of their materials in a single mailing.

5. The Graduate School has made offers for the new Presidential Fellowships and is waiting for replies. The students selected are outstanding.

6. Dr. Hatch will present a report on graduate education at Notre Dame at the May meeting of the Board of Trustees.

The meeting adjourned at 5:00p.m.

Members in attendance: Rev. Edward A. Malloy, C.S.C., Prof. Timothy O'Meara, Rev. E. William Beauchamp, C.S.C., Prof. Roger Schmitz, Rev. David Tyson, C.S.C., Prof. Nathan Hatch, Deans Francis Castellino, Emil Hofman, John Keane, David Link, Michael Loux, and Anthony Michel; Dr. Paul Conway, Rev. James Burtchaell, C.S.C.; Professors John Borkowski, Michael Crowe, Fernand Dutile, Morton Fuchs, Mark Herro, Paul Johnson, Barry Keating, Jerry Marley, Suzanne Marilley, William McGlinn, William Nichols, and Daniel Pasta; Mr. J. Douglas Archer, Dr. James Powell, Dr. Kathleen Maas Weigert; Students Kenneth Scheve, Martin Chiaverini and Frank Ciraci (Mr. George Sereiko substituted for Mr. Robert Miller.)

Observers in attendance: Mr. Richard Conklin and Col. Howard Hanson

Professor O'Meara opened the meeting at 3:00p.m. with a prayer.

1. The minutes of the meeting of December 6 were ap­proved as published in Notre Dame Report, No. 10, 1989-90.

2. Revision of Academic Article III. 4(e), Allegations In­volving Academic Freedom, Personal Bias, or Procedural Error. Prof. O'Meara reminded the council that, at the meeting of October 10, a committee had been charged with reviewing a resolution presented by the Faculty Senate regarding Academic Article III. 4(e), and with proposing appropriate revisions in that article. He stated that the committee, comprising the Executive Committee and three members of the senate who were involved in formulating the resolution (Profs. Mike Etzel, Ray Powell and Philip Quinn) had met three times and had produced the revised version sent to council members in advance of this meeting. (See Attachment A.) Prof. O'Meara added that the Executive Committee recommended approval of the revision with the exception of the sentence beginning on line 22 regarding the withholding of voting privileges of "directly involved" persons, which it regarded as an. optional sentence. He asked for discussion from the floor on that sentence in particular, and on the entire proposed revision in general.

Regarding the optional sentence, Prof. Conway expressed the feeling that any individual who was directly involved in a .decision against reappointment, promotion or pro­motion to tenure should dissociate himself or herself from the appeal process based on ethical considerations. He added that the appeal procedure should ensure, to the

--

Documentation

extent possible, an impartial review committee. There have been instances in which this has not been the case, he claimed.

Others argued that "direct involvement" cannot be de­fined satisfactorily for such purposes and that significant numbers of College Council members would be denied a vote in some cases.

Called to vote, 15 members opposed including the optional sentence; eight favored including it.

A motion was then made that the remainder of the pro­posed revision be approved. A friendly amendment was accepted to use the name "review committee" for the elected committee. (fhe adjectives "review" and "appeal" both appeared in the version presented to the council.)

A question was raised at this point about the applicability of the proposed article to the Law School. Dean Link stated that while it does not apply directly, the procedures described could be extended easily to apply.

The motion was approved without dissent. The following five paragraphs give the new version of Academic Article III. 4(e).

If a member of the Regular Faculty alleges that a decision against reappointment, promotion, or promotion to tenure of that faculty member vio­lates academic freedom or is due to personal bias, or procedural error, the faculty member notifies the Provost in writing prior to October 1 of the year of decision. The Provost then initiates the election of a committee of three faculty members, none below the rank of Associate, to review the allegation. If the aggrieved is a member of the Teaching and Research Faculty or of the Special Research Fac­ulty, the Council of the faculty member's College elects the committee, all of whose members are tenured and none of whose members is from the aggrieved's department. If the aggrieved is a member of the Library Faculty, the Library Faculty elects the committee. If the aggrieved is a member of the Special Professional Faculty, the Special Professional Faculty elects the committee.

The burden of presentation and of establishing a prima facie case rests with the aggrieved. A prima facie case is one which has sufficient evidence to establish a violation of academic freedom, per­sonal bias, or procedural error, were such evidence not contradicted and overcome by other evidence. If there is a prima facie case, the committee pursues the investigation. The committee has confidential access to all necessary information.

331

The Provost resolves any dispute concerning such access. The committee does not consider whether the reappointment or promotion should have been made, but only whether a violation of academic freedom, personal bias, or procedural error which might have affected the outcome has occurred. The committee then makes its confidential report to the Provost.

If, in consultation with the President, the Provost determines that such a violation, bias, or error occurred, the entire reappointment or promotion process is begun anew. When, pursuant to this subsection, the process is begun anew, the Provost appoints a Monitor, and takes whatever additional measures are necessary, to ensure that the violation, bias or error does not recur. The Monitor, who may have served on the review committee, has access to the committee's report. The Monitor tracks the case through the rehearing, attending the meetings of committees implicated in the violation, bias or error.

The decision of the Provost regarding an allegation pursued under this subsection normally occurs, and is communicated to the aggrieved, by December 31 next following the filing of the allegation. The communication to the aggrieved includes the conclusions of the review committee and, if the decision of the Provost differed from those conclusions, a brief explanation for the difference.

If the Provost is immediately involved in an allegation under this subsection, the review committee makes its confidential report to the President. In that event, the President makes the determination concerning the alleged violation, bias or error, makes the communication to the aggrieved, and takes the precautionary measures called for by this subsection.

3. Faculty Senate resolution regarding Academic Article III. S(a), Qualification for Tenure. Prof. Conway presented this item referring to a Faculty Senate proposal which was sent to council members in ad­vance. (See Attachment B.) In short, the proposal would add a paragraph to Academic Article III. S(a) to give untenured faculty members the option of extend­ing their pretenure period for care giving to a newborn or newly adopted child. Prof. Conway emphasized that the extension of the pretenure period for the principal caregiver would apply to either parent and that it would be independent of the faculty leave policy. He pointed

Documentation

out that, as it is described in the proposal, the extension would require no University approval, only notification to the department chairperson by the faculty member. He added that the proposal was brought to the council with a recommendation for approval by the Executive Committee.

In the discussion that followed, some concern was ex­pressed that the proposed policy would discriminate against those untenured faculty members who are single or have no children- that it would give an advantage to those who could use it to extend their pretenure period. Another comment was that a day care center would address better the needs of faculty parents.

Those members commenting in support of the proposal stated that the University has not done enough in the past to recognize the situation of a scholar in a new family situation or the importance of the child's first year in parental bonding. By adopting the proposed policy, the University would enable faculty members to remain active while they start families.

In answer to questions from the floor, Prof. O'Meara pointed out that very few faculty members are now taking leaves of absence to care for newborn or newly adopted children. He explained that "principal care giver" applies to either mother or father and refers to care given only during the year that the option of pretenure extension is exercised, not to future years.

Professor Crowe then raised the question as to whether those faculty who are not to be continued (for example, after the first or second three-year contract) could gain an extra year on the faculty by exercising this option. A follow-up discussion led only to the conclusion that the proposed paragraph should be modified to clarify this matter. Further, the concern was expressed that the extension of the pretenure period could become excessive. For example, a faculty member could have an approved one-year extension connected with a normal leave of absence followed by two additional extensions as a principal care giver. At this point a motion was made to table the proposal so that further consideration could be given to such concerns and modifications worked out. In a vote on the motion to table, 14 members were in favor, nine were opposed. Professor O'Meara stated that the Executive Committee would present a revised proposal at the next council meeting.

4. Amendment to Section 7.4 of the Academic Code. Dean Hofman proposed adding a third method for entering freshmen to become eligible for credit by exami­nation, namely through the International Baccalaureate Program. He explained this program briefly pointing out

332

that it would increase the international visibility of Notre Dame and that it has higher standards than the Advanced Placement Program currently offered by Notre Dame. He added that an increasing number of high schools are becoming involved with the program.

The proposal was approved without dissent. Dean Hofman stated that he will meet with individuals and departments as necessary to establish initial standards.

With this amendment, the first sentence of Section 7.4 of the Academic Code will be as follows. Other parts of the section are unchanged.

7.4 The entering freshman may become eligible for credit by examination in three ways: (1) through the Advanced Placement Program administered by the College Entrance Examination Board, (2) through the International Baccalaureate Program, and (3) through the Gu;dance and Testing Program administered by the Freshman Year of Studies.

5. Academic Code, Section 16.1 -consideration of the required reporting of unsatisfactory grades for sopho­mores, juniors and seniors at midsemester. Dean Castellino introduced this item saying that he felt it worthwhile to have council discussion of the question .as to whether midsemester grade reporting for nonfreshmen should be required. He cited certain difficulties with the requirement including the fact that some faculty do not comply, and strict enforcement is nearly impossible. Students and parents have legitimate complaints when, in spite of the requirement, they are not informed of unsatis­factory performances. He felt that there were three options to consider: (1) leave the statement as it stands, and try to enforce it, (2) eliminate entirely the reference to midsemester grade reporting for ·all bu·t freshmen, and (3) make the reporting optional- for example, by encourag­ing reporting (using "should" instead of "must") rather than insisting on it.

The following statements summarize the discussion from the floor. • Midsemester grades are helpful to students, parents and hall staff. The dean should be responsible for enforcing the requirement. • In some courses, no basis exists for giving a meaningful grade at midsemester. Faculty should simply be encouraged to report grades whenever possible. • Since no permanent record of the grade is kept, the basis for the midsemester grade need not be as sound as that for a final grade.

• Such reports give valuable information for students. Faculty should be required to provide them. • Parents deserve to know about their son's or daughter's progress. • Perhaps additional time should be allowed beyond the midsemester point for reporting deficiencies. o A reminder from the registrar might help enforce faculty compliance with the requirement. • Since academic difficulties are often associated with other problems, deficiency reports are often helpful in identifying personal problems and the need for coun­selling.

A motion was made and seconded that "should" replace "must" in the second sentence of Section 16.1. The motion was defeated by a voice vote. There being no other motions regarding this matter, Section 16.1 will remain unchanged. Prof. O'Meara pointed out that the discussion and the decision not to make a change were reaffirmations that deans and department chairpersons should find ways to enforce the requirement.

6. Proposed amendments to Academic Code Sections 22.1 and 23.2. Dean Hofman introduced proposed changes in Sections 22.1 and 23.2 of the Academic Code for the purposes of (a) removing the word "probation" in favor of "failure to achieve academic good standing," and (b) clarifying the role of Summer Session grades in ascertaining academic standing. These purposes would be served by striking the words "will result in academic probation, which" from one sentence in Section 22.1 and replacing the first part of Section 23.2 with the following.

23.2 Academic dismissal dedsions are based on the following criteria: 1) Undergraduate students are subject to dis­missal for:

a) failure to achieve good standing in two successive semesters, or

b) failure to achieve good standing in a total of three nonconsecutive semesters, or .

c) failure to achieve a semester average of 1.000 regardless of previous academic work.

2) A dean may, with good reason, authorize a student who is not in good standing at the end of the Spring semester: to attend the Summer Session in an attempt to achieve. good standing. Such a student will achieve good standing for the purpose of continuing into the following semester if the average of his or her ira des for the Spring semester and the Summer Session combined is at least that required for good standing by a student in his or her classification. If a student who so achieves good standing fails to achieve good standing in the

333

following semester, he or she will not be liable to dismissal by reason of failure to achieve good standing in two successive semesters, but both the Spring and following semester will count toward the total number of semesters in which good standing is not achieved.

A student who is in good standing at the end of the Spring semester will not lose good standing if the average of his or her grades for the Spring semester and the Summer Session combined is below that required for good standing by a student in his or her classification.

3) Graduate students: No student ..•

Regarding the first of these purposes, Dean Hofman explained that the use of "probation" had been chal­lenged on legal arguments in one dismissal case because probation implies a continuation.

Some council members expressed reluctance to accept this change. They felt that the legal argument is weak, that "probation" is an immediately understood, familiar term, and that "failure to achieve good standing" is awkward.

When asked for a vote, no council members voted for making the change to remove "probation" from the Academic Code.

Regarding the second purpose, Dean Hofman pointed out that the second part of the above version of Section 23.2 simply describes current and past practices. No such description is presently available. Some council members questioned whether the description is neces­sary. Otners felt that there should be an explicit state­ment of the policy and practices regarding Summer Session grades.

A suggestion was made that a portion of the second part might be more appropriately inserted in Section 22. In light of that suggestion and of the fact that the proposed wording should now be changed to make use of "proba­tion," Fr. Malloy requested that the subject be reconsid­ered by the Executive Committee and revisited at the next meeting of the council.

7. Report by the Provost. Prof. O'Meara handed out a set of sheets which presented data, mostly covering the past decade; on admissions statistics, enrollments by college, undergraduate credit hours, course section sizes, plans of bachelor-degree recipients, GRE, L/SAT and G/MAT scores, graduate enrollment, graduate credit

Documentation

hours, research grant awards, faculty head count and average AAUP salaries. Touching on the highlights of these and other statistics, he pointed out that • Significant increases in undergraduate financial aid are expected over the next few years which will result in increased support for minority students and may triple the number of Notre Dame Scholars. • The number of applicants for undergraduate admissions so far this year is down slightly from a year ago, but the quality of the applicant pool, as judged mainly on SAT scores and class rank, is higher. • Present enrollment trends are such that the number of undergraduate majors in Arts and Letters is at a 20-year high of 2,614. Enrollments in Business Administration and Science are close to their average values over the past 10 to 15 years at 1,495 and 838, respectively. The Engi­neering enrollment of 924 is approaching its level of the late 1970s after reaching a peak of 1,367 in the early 1980s. The number of advanced students has increased gradually through the years. Presently 1,482 students are enrolled in the Graduate School, 346 in graduate business programs and 542 in the Law School. • Trends in undergraduate credit hours reflect the enroll­ment patterns. They show an increase of 18 percent for Arts and Letters through the past decade. • The distribution of section sizes in undergraduate courses shows the same basic pattern presently as in 1981-82. • GRE scores for current graduate students are higher than at any other time over the past 11 years, at least. They are currently at 1818 for first-year students and 1834 for continuing students. The scores were 1766 and 1795 respectively for these groups in 1977-78. • The number of budgeted full-time regular faculty posi­tions has increased from 530 in 1982-83 to 650 for 1990-91. Continued modest increases can be expected owing mainly to the adoption this year of a five-year planning strategy in the budget process. • Salaries of assistant, associate and full professors con­tinue to have an AAUP rating of 1. For professors, salaries have moved from the 94th position on the AAUP list of doctoral-level institutions in 1978-79 to 21st in 1988-89; for associate professors, from 62nd to 28th; for assistant professors, from 90th to 16th. • The overall quality of the pool of candidates for reap­pointment, promotion and tenure has improved steadily and significantly through the years. This year the younger group is particularly impressive, and some veteran faculty have shown an initiation, or rejuvenation, to productive scholarly work. o So far, more than one-third of the new hires to the Teaching and Research Faculty for 1990-91 have been women.

334

• Recruiting of new faculty in certain instances has been aided appreciably by a few "mini-chairs" available for new assistant professors. For example, a recently announced endowment from the Luce Foundation, earmarked for women in science and engineering, will be used partly for such purposes.

There being no further business, the meeting was ad­journed at 4:55 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Roger A. Schmitz Secretary of the Academic Council

A PROPOSAL OF THE FACULTY SENATE

Whereas our university wishes to foster a caring family life for its faculty,

and whereas the family obligations of untenured faculty members often conflict with pressures to meet tenure deadlines,

and whereas the Senate believes that a flexible policy in this matter will be helpful in recruitment of young faculty,

and whereas the university administration is currently considering a new approach to childcare leaves,

be it resolved that the Faculty Senate proposes the follow­ing paragraph be added to the end of Article III, Section 5, Subsection (a) (Qualification for Tenure) of the Academic Articles:

However, an untenured faculty member may extend the pretenure period for one year, should that faculty member wish to be the principal caregiver of his/her own newborn child (or of a newly adopted child). This is to be done by informing the departmental chair of this in writing, before the arrival of the child, and specifying the intention to be the principal caregiver of the child. This option may be ex­ercised by a faculty member at most twice, independent of any decisions on parental leave.

This motion was passed by the Faculty Senate at its regular meeting, December 12, 1989.

University Committee on Libraries March 7, 1990

The meeting was called to order at 4:00 p.m. in the office of the director of libraries by the chairman, john Lucey. Also in attendance were Harvey Bender, Maureen Boulton, Maureen Gleason, Bill McDonald, Robert Miller, james Robinson, Robert Scheidt and secretary Melodie Eitel jorge.

The minutes of February 7 were approved with an amend­ment.

james Robinson distributed copies of a portion of a W. B. Yeats play, "Cathleen Ni Hoolihan," which was subse­quently read aloud by members of the committee.

Robert Miller reported that the 1990-91 budget is not quite finished, but it promises to be the best he has seen to date. There will be nine new student assistant positions and eight new full or part-time staff positions. The Acquisi­tions budget should more than meet inflation. The current drive for library endowment continues to be reasonably successful.

Maureen Gleason next reported on the Collection Devel­opment budget. We should be able to meet inflation, but predictions are always based on a steady dollar. The approval cost limit has been raised to $125 from $75 and is being tested at this level, which should be helpful in most areas. Money has been added to the preservation budget, and the funding for electronic media is now in serials.

Maureen Boulton noted that some areas are still very weak and that modest budget increases will not make any significant difference for them. Robert Miller replied that we must still look for endowment to make any real progress in weak areas. He will put together a list of weak areas to share with committee members at the next meeting.

Miller announced some forthcoming changes in library administration due to the impending retirement of George Sereiko, associate director, at the end of the fiscal year. Dr. Sereiko's position will not be filled as such. Maureen Gleason will be deputy director, jo Bessler will be assistant director of User Services and Sue Dietl has been named head of Access Services, to report to ]o Bessler. Sonja jordan is head of Special Collections/Preservation and reports to Maureen Gleason. Katharina Blackstead, a reference librarian, will also assume the role of library development and public relations officer.

The next agenda item was Copy Services. The University Libraries' contract with Adams Remco is expiring soon, and it must be determined whether we should renew the contract or look to other alternatives. Robert Wittorf, assistant director for Systems and Administrative Services, recently put together a report on the possibility of pur­chasing machines rather than renting. It was determined that this would not be a good alternative at this time and that we should stay with a vendor. Regardless of what is decided, we need to solicit input on needs, etc.

Robert Scheidt noted that there may be a problem with paper quality, since he has noticed some of his older copies deteriorating. He also asked about the possibility of duplex copiers, which would aid in saving shelf space for those who do a good deal of photocopying. Miller replied that the libraries will do a user survey, which should be finished or at least in process by the next meeting.

Miller also announced that he will be meeting with the Provost Advisory Committee in May to address the issue of library space problems. He distributed a draft document on this subject prior to the meeting and would welcome any comments.

Agenda items for the next meeting will include the budget and alternative methods of providing access to electronic information (CD-Rom, etc.). The meeting adjourned at 5:20p.m.

University Academic Affirmative Action Report- Spring 1990

Introduction

The year 1990 marks the 20th anniversary of Notre Dame's first affirmative action efforts and provides us with an important opportunity. From this vantage point, we can view our progress since 1970 and design strategies to achieve a diversified University experience for all who join us here. Since Notre Dame takes a strong public stand on the moral values which inform the initiatives of affirma­tive action, creating diversity in our faculty and among our various student populations becomes indispensable to our mission.

Although affirmative action to ensure equal opportunities and a diverse University experience is intimately tied to Notre Dame's very-character, our past success has been moderate. In light of this lackluster performance in such a critical area, the University Administration has taken decisive remedial steps. In the fall of 1989, the Provost's Office, with the approval of Rev. Edward Malloy, C.S.C., reconstituted the University Academic Affirmative Action Committee and provided this enlarged group license to formulate an aggressive affirmative action program. This report summarizes the actions taken by this committee during the past six months and outlines its initial recom­mendations.

Current Faculty Diversity

The committee's first task was to bring a sense of order to past affirmative action efforts. This task was impeded by a lack of meeting minutes and a dependence on data that were difficult to interpret. To remove these impediments, we have maintained a set of written minutes of all meet­ings, made available on request, and have established a new set of definitions that brings a "common sense" understanding to our measurements of affirmative action success.

In this report and, we hope, in future reports, we carefully identify the various groupings of our faculty. In Table I, our "Total Faculty" is disaggregated into its various constituencies. Here we focus on the subset of our faculty impacting our students most immediately and directly: the tenure track faculty which we refer to as the Regular Te_aching and Research Faculty. This faculty's affirmative action characteristics are detailed in the first row of Table I. Please note that our attention to this subset of our Total Faculty does not mean that we fail to recognize the contributions our other faculties make toward diversifying

337

our community. What happens in these faculties is vital. At this moment in our University's history, however, we must concentrate our attention on our Regular Teaching and Research Faculty. When the deficiencies in this group are better understood and corrective steps are undertaken, the committee will then systematically focus on the other faculties.

Table I suggests that we have much room for improve­ment. Among our Regular Teaching and Research Faculty women represent only 11.7 percent of the total (69 of 591) and total minorities* equal only 11.0 percent (65 out of 591). In this second category black representation is 0.9 percent (5 of 591), Hispanics are 3.9 percent (23 of 591), Asian's are 6.3 percent (37 of 591), and there are no Ameri­can Indians. As we search through our other faculties, the picture brightens somewhat for women-there are 196 women out of 1063 "Total Faculty," which represents 18.4 percent. However, there is no measurable improve­ment in the presence of minorities in these faculties. We have 117 minority faculty members out of a total of 1063, which again represents 11.0 percent.

The absence of women and minorities in our senior ranks is detailed in Table II. Among our Regular Teaching and Research faculty only 35 ofour 440 Professors and Associ­ate Professors are women. Thus of our tenured faculty only 7.9 percent are women. Fortunately, a look into the untenured ranks provides some relief. Here women represent 22.5 percent of our Assistant Professors and In­structors. The situation of minorities is not as encourag­ing. The total number of minorities represent 10.9 percent of our faculty at the senior ranks of Professor and Associate Professor (4.8 percent are non-Asian minorities). In the junior ranks, minority representation is only marginally greater at 11.3 percent (4.6 percent are non-Asian minori­ties). Unless we alter our appointment patterns signifi­cantly and immediately, we cannot expect minority representation to increase to any appreciable degree.

*Minorities are defined in the following manner: White: A person with origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East (Not of Hispanic origin). Black: A person with origins in any of the black racial groups (not of Hispanic origin). Hispanic: A person of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or south American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race. Asian or Pacific Islander: A person with origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent or the Pacific Islands. American Indian or Native: A person with origins in any of the original peoples of North Alaska America and who maintain cultural identification through tribual affiliation or community recognition. It should be noted that In addition to U.S. born minorities, these definitions include foreign born minorities.

Documentation

Before we leave Table II, we should note the significant representation of women in our non-regular faculty, and particularly their presence in the junior ranks. Nearly one out of four non-regular faculty members is a woman. At the Assistant Professor rank, women represent 27.4 percent of our non-regular faculty and at the Instructor rank women are 43.1 percent of the total number of instructors.

Table III provides additional insights into the distribution of women and minorities (who appear in Table I) in our various faculties. This table distributes to the individual colleges and administrative units all women and minori­ties who hold faculty appointments on the Teaching and Research Faculty, the Special Professional Faculty, the Special Research Faculty, the Library Faculty and in the Administration.

The details in this table confirm certain conclusions drawn from casual empiricism and reject others. For example, it is generally assumed that the College of Arts and Letters is the home college for most of our women and minority faculty members. This assumption is true for women, but not true for minorities. In the Arts and Letters College, where 47.7 percent of all our Teaching and Research Faculty hold regular appointments, 46 of our 69 women or 66.7 percent of all our women Teaching and Research Faculty hold regular appointments. However, only 20 of the 65 minority faculty or 30.8 percent, are in the College of Arts and Letters. (As we will see in Table IV, this is due to the relatively large representation of Asian faculty members in our three other undergraduate colleges.) With respect to minority representation, the Arts and Letters College is the least diverse of all our colleges. Minority representation is only 7.1 percent in this college, while it is 11.5 percent in the Science College, 12.5 percent in the Law School, 15.2 percent in the Business College and 17.7 percent in the Engineering College.

We can draw a number of other significant observations from Table III. Women are likely to be well represented in the regular Library Faculty (47.2 percent), the regular Special Professional Faculty (36.0 percent), and to a lesser extent in the regular Special Research Faculty (19.4 percent). Women also appear in administrative positions, though not in overwhelming numbers (13.6 percent). Finally, we should note the presence of women in the non-regular Teaching and Research Faculty. Women represent 23.7 percent of this faculty.

Table IV provides still more detail concerning the Regular Teaching and Research Faculty. This table disaggregates our data by colleges and departments. It is critically important to examine this table with care, since it reveals the success or lack of success of individual academic departments in increasing our faculty's diversity. This

338

table also provides an "availability index" which can be used to begin an evaluation of the affirmative action efforts of our academic departments. The provost's office and our academic departments assisted in the develop­ment of these availability indexes. They are reflective of the national experience* and our own University's experi­ence in the academic labor marketplaces.

The unfortunate story told in Table IV is that no academic department can take great pride in its affirmative action success. To be sure, certain academic departments have equalled or exceeded our estimated availability index and we have noted this very commendable effort in Table IV. But far too few departments can point with pride to this table, and where we do find a department exceeding the availability index in one affirmative action category, it often falls short in another. We can only hope that over time all departments will recognize these deficiencies and with University assistance, take decisive steps to enrich our faculty's diversity.

What is particularly disturbing is that we do not appear to be making progress toward solving our affirmative action deficiencies over time. Our lack of success is apparent in Table V. This table summarizes our affirmative action accomplishments for the past 10 years. A sobering pattern appears in Table V: In the course of 10 years the presence of minority faculty members and women faculty members has not increased appreciably. Since 1980-81, total minority Regular Teaching and Research Faculty have increased from 9.6 percent to 11.0 percent. In some cate­gories we have lost ground in absolute terms. This is the case in black representation. Here we find only five black regular Teaching and Research faculty members in 1989-90. In 1980-81 there were nine black members of our faculty. An equally disturbing pattern exists for women. In 1980-81, 7.6 percent of our Regular Teaching andRe­search Faculty were women, now 11.7 percent are women. This statistic is particularly disheartening when noting that while 18 new women were added to our ranks since 1981-82, the percentage gain during the past nine years has remained relatively flat. While more and more women are entering the academy, we have been slow to capitalize on these changing demographics. In short, we have unnecessarily deprived our students of the benefits of a diverse faculty.

*The baseline data were compiled by the University of Washing­ton Equal Employment Office. This office estimated faculty work force availabilities on the basis of national data through 1988. It should be noted that the index is reflective of the availability of affirmative action appointments at all ranks. In many instances, the current availability of new women Ph.Ds is much higher

Documentation

We have made some progress in the past decade. We have nearly tripled the number of Hispanics on our faculty and raised the number of Asians from 31 to 37. But even here we can take little comfort. Twenty-three Hispanic faculty members out of 591 is not a significant presence and 37 Asian faculty members out of 591 is not much better, particularly when we note that 22 of the 37 are in two of our smallest colleges, Engineering and Science.

Some Observations and Recommendations

In an attempt to determine why we have not been more successful in diversifying our faculty over the past 10 years and how we might change this pattern, the University Affirmative Action Committee visited the 22 academic departments known to be actively recruiting for the 1990-91 academic year. The committee contacted each of these academic units and arranged a meeting with the Depart­mental Chair and the Committee on Appointments and Promotions. (In two instances, the committee did not meet with the CAP.) The purpose of these meetings was fourfold: i) To learn of affirmative action initiatives taken by our various academic departments; ii) To discover any general patterns that might lead to University-wide recommendations; iii) To refine the "availability index" included in Table IV; and iv) To demonstrate the committee's and University's seriousness of purpose in regard to affirmative action appointments.

The committee was very well received by the academic departments and encouraged-by their honest efforts to increase the number of women and minority appoint­ments. Indeed, some departments such as Psychology and English have self imposed restrictions on hiring white male candidates until they have recruited a more diversi­fied faculty. (It should be noted that this very commend­able action may not be appropriate for those departments which face applicant pools containing few women and minority applicants.) Other departments employ different strategies. Some bring visitors to campus in the hopes of attracting them permanently. Still others are tracking graduate students before they enter the academic job market. This is a particularly fruitful strategy for Notre Dame alumni. These efforts have begun to yield divi­dends. Preliminary evidence suggests that the 1989-90 recruiting year may be one of the very best in our University's history. But even if this proves to be so, our discussions with department chairs and CAPs increased the committee's awareness of a number of serious prob­lems.

339

One common refrain is the existence of a practical"Catch-22". That is, departments noted that we have not reached a critical mass in either the number of women or the number of minorities necessary to make newcomers feel welcome and comfortable. Even in those colleges where progress has been made in recent years, the numbers are still small. This is a fact which does not go unnoticed by those whom we are trying to attract and retain here at Notre Dame. This Jack of adequate presence creates a related problem for those women and minorities currently on our faculty. We call on the members of these under­represented groups to serve on a disportionally large number of committees. Thus they are asked to provide more than their fair share for the good of the common­weal, which impinges on the time they must devote to scholarship and teaching.

Adequate employment opportunities for spouses consti­tutes a second general problem CAPs encountered in their attempts to attract and retain affirmative action appoint­ments. This, of course, is true for non-affirmative action appointments as well, but the severity of the problem in terms of academic appointments may be somewhat less for a male candidate. That is, married women academics are two to three times more likely to have an academic spouse than is a married male academic.

A third, rather subtle problem emerging from the depart­mental visitations concerns the misalignment of depart­mental specialities with the specialities of women and minorities in the job market. Given that the interests and training of our faculty, largely typified by white males, have shaped our areas of specialization, it is unlikely that we would specialize in research/teaching areas that are of particular interest to women and non-white faculty. For example, if there is underrepresentation of women and minorities, our History Department might tend to focus upon European and American History, our Economics Department might ignore special problems of female­headed households, our Romance Languages and Litera­ture Department might not offer a concentration in the literature of French-speaking African countries, our Biology Department may not conduct research on sickle cell anemia, and our Law School may not choose to specialize in poverty law. The Jist goes on and on. We do not mean to imply that teaching and research in these areas could not take place without women and minority faculty members - indeed some of the above named departments have scholars with distinguished records in these areas- what we do suggest is that it is Jess likely that we would offer these specialities.

RECOMMENDATIONS: The committee offers the following recommendations.

Recommendations Directed to the President and Provost:

1. Affirmative Action should be clearly established as a high institutional priority. To this end, incentives should be provided to departments and colleges for accomplish­ments in affirmative action hiring and retention. All recommendations for new appointments should be ex­plicitly considered in light of our affirmative action goals.

2. fn keeping with the 1988 University-wide plan to increase minorities on our faculty, the minority faculty situation should be reviewed and funds designated so as to remove financial obstacles that stand in the way of hiring minority candidates. The new faculty goals estab­lished in that plan should be re-examined and a progress report issued.

3. The University should examine the benefit package and the conditions of work which could make Notre Dame a more attractive place of employment for married couples and parents, that is, spousal employment initia­tives, parental leave policy and child care.

4. In order to develop and recruit women and minority candidates, special fellowships, post-doctoral.appoint­ments and visiting faculty positions should be targeted at these underpresented groups.

5. Women and minorities should be appointed to high level positions in academic administration to demonstrate that the University is serious about its commitment to affirmative action.

6. The following services are needed to strengthen our affirmative action efforts: i) information sharing on strategies for success affirmative action recruitment; ii) exit interviews with affirmative action faculty; and iii) assistance with spousal employment.

Recommendations Directed to Deans of Colleges:

1. At least annually, the dean should publicly stress the importance of affirmative action in the recruiting process to the faculty, to the Committees on Appointments and Promotions, and to chairpersons.

340

2. The dean should annually review statistics concerning the availability of women and minorities at all levels in the various disciplines of the college and in the light of these statistics evaluate the proposed recruiting efforts for all academic departments to ensure that serious affirmative action efforts are planned.

3. Any academic department in the college where the percentage of women and/or minorities is substantially below the availability index should receive special atten­tion from the dean as they work toward reaching their affirmative action goals.

4. All recommended faculty appointments should be evaluated in terms of the impact on the college's affirma­tive action efforts.

5. The dean should pay special attention to affirmative action efforts in those areas of appointment where the Dean plays a large role- for example, the appointment of chairpersons, chairholders, assistant/associate deans, committee chairs, etc.

6. The faculty of the college should be encouraged to invite to campus as visitors, guest lecturers and leading scholars who are women and/or members of minority groups.

7. Most importantly, the dean should make a deter­mined effort to ensure that sufficient funds are available within the college to support the above mentioned af­firmative action policies.

Recommendations Directed to Departmental Chairs and Committees on Appointments and Promotions:

1. In their proactive efforts to recruit women and minority applicants, academic departments should: i) network, especially contacting senior academicians who are women or members of minority groups; ii) use minor­ity locater services where they are available; iii) make special efforts to contact graduate departments in Univer­sities with large minority and/or women enrollments, taking care not to overlook the best students at less well­known schools; and iv) track and maintain contact with promising graduate students before they near the comple­tion of their degrees.

2. Departments should discuss the adoption of self­imposed hiring restrictions which at a minimum would be shaped by the availability indexes published with this report. (Note, the availability of new women and minor­ity Ph.Ds is higher than the published indexes.)

Documentation

3. An attempt to identify women and minorities candi­dates should be an ongoing process whether a position is available or not.

4. Special attention should be paid to hiring women and minorities at senior ranks and as chairholders. (This is especially important for departments which markedly lag behind the availability index in their discipline.)

S. A cooperative effort should be established between academic departments and with the Provost's Office in order to assist in spousal hiring.

6. A portion of the department's annual academic report should be explicitly devoted to affirmative action efforts.

7. Academic departments should discuss the advisability of modifying their specializations so as to attract and accommodate the special teaching and research interests of women and/or minorities.

8. The climate and culture of the department should be re-examined to assure that it is conducive to the recruit­ment and retention of affirmative action appointments. (This is especially pertinent for those departments where there are presently few minorities and/or women, and where the new appointment is a single man or woman.)

The University Academic Affirmative Action Committee has been impressed by the degree of good will among our various faculty toward improving our community's diversity. But as we enter in-to the decade of the 1990s and prepare to celebrate our sesquicentennial year, good will will not be enough. We must not only be open to ~.:,

hiring women and minorities, we must make a serious commitment of time and money to actively recruit, attract and retain women and minority faculty. Our immediate action on this mandate becomes even more necessary in light of projected shortfalls in available faculty which will come about within five to 10 years in nearly every disci­pline. This situation will make it increasingly more difficult to hire women and minorities in the future. We now must move quickly if we are to diversify our faculty and maintain our high standards.
