F81-80 SFSU Academic Senate Policy
URBAN MISSION TASK FORCE REPORT
ACADEMIC SENATE POLICY F81-80
At its meeting of October 6, 1981, the Academic Senate approved the following
proposal recommended by its Executive Committee:
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. We strongly recommend that this report be considered in conjunction with
the recommendations in the forthcoming UPG report. Further, we urge that
the focus of future efforts be the pulling together, coordinating, including
additional options as appropriate, and providing the overview necessary for
establishing priorities and distributing limited resources.
2. We also recommend that an all-university Urban Planning and Policy Council
be formed and given policy-recommending responsibilities for all aspects
of the Urban Mission. This Council should solicit advice, recommendations, and
criticisms from all members of the University community who want to become actively
involved in the Urban Mission, and should work toward creating a network for
consultation and planning with Bay Area community organizations and people who
are willing to participate as partners in the Urban Mission. We suggest an interim
Action Team of the Director of the Urban Mission, the Associate Provost for
Academic Affairs, the Chair of the Academic Policies Committee, the Chair of
the Curriculum Review and Approval Committee, and the Chair of the Research
and Professional Development Committee be formed to develop policy recommendations
for Academic Senate consideration prior to the end of the Fall semester, 1981.
**APPROVED BY PRESIDENT ROMBERG, OCTOBER 21, 1981**
