SAN FRANCISCO STATE UNIVERSITY

RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF AMENDING

SPRING 2002 CALENDAR

FOR FILING FACULTY ACTIVITY REPORTS

#RS02-189

WHEREAS                           The

current budget crisis precludes any possibility that CSU will be able to fund

Faculty Merit Increases (FMIs) in the coming academic year; and

WHEREAS                           Faculty

eligibility for Service Salary Step Increases (SSIs) for 2002/03 cannot be

established because the 2001/02 faculty compensation program (including SSIs)

has not yet been resolved; and

WHEREAS                           It falls to the

Academic Senate to determine the deadlines for submitting Faculty Activity

Reports (FARs) to be reviewed for awards of SSIs and FMIs as outlined in Policy

#F99-208; and

WHEREAS                           Both the President

and the Executive Committee of the Academic Senate have agreed, through a

collegial process, that no faculty potentially eligible for SSIs will be

disadvantaged by extending the deadline for the filing of the FARs; therefore,

be it

RESOLVED                         That San Francisco

State University faculty submit their 2001 FAR in Spring 2002; and be it

further

RESOLVED                         That San Francisco

State University eliminate review and consideration for FMIs in Spring 2002;

and be it further

RESOLVED                         That SSI considerations

be postponed until SSI eligibility can be properly determined; and be it

further

RESOLVED                         That San Francisco

State University adopt the following revised timeline for Spring 2002 for

submission of the FARs:

April                     third Monday: last day for

all faculty to submit FAR to Department (Department should retain copy for

possible future SSI review)

April                     fourth Monday:  Departments submit FARs to Deans

April                     fifth Monday:  Deans submit FARs to President
