I serve on several departmental/college/university committees. Will this work continue?

Academic administrators, faculty governance bodies, and other committees have been asked to assess and prioritize their essential work with a focus on student success and maintaining personnel and other processes on which the university depends (e.g., some work may continue as planned; some work may be modified or slowed; some work may be temporarily suspended).

Faculty are encouraged to continue to participate in their service responsibilities via appropriate virtual environments provided by the department/school, campus, college and university, to the extent possible.

Given the unique challenges created by the COVID-19 disruption, the Ad Hoc Academic Continuity Committee recommends a holistic approach to the evaluation of faculty in the performance of their service responsibilities to both the university and their disciplines which acknowledges both the challenges and the successes of each faculty member’s role in in these activities.
