  • Shared Governance and Professional Faculty participation
    • Discussed: Infrastructure to facilitate shared governance; ongoing conversations for consistency and organization.
  • Professional Faculty award outline and strategy
    • Discussed: Keep the process simple and streamlined for nominations, like a Qualtrics survey to ask questions about why the person deserves the award with rubric-type system for review. Tie award to how Pro Fac are contributing to Prosperity Widely Shared and serving the university through their role.
