AGENDA
- Request for PPPC assistance from ASEC (Carol): This is a recent request from
Heather D. regarding an ASEC term issue. ASPP (14.12.A.5.b) says that ASEC
members are limited to two consecutive three year terms. Because ASEC
members may be elected to terms of less than three years, however, the question
arose regarding what happens when someone serves a one or two year elected term
to fill a vacancy followed by election to a full three year term. Carol
and Linda advised ASEC to propose some language if it wished to see this
addressed in ASPP. The current language and the proposed revisions are uploaded
in Box for review.
- Distinguished
Prefix Review Committee (DPRC) (Deb): This issue concerns how many members the DPRCs
are supposed to have. These committees are discipline-specific and the
committee members are supposed to (at least partially) be folks who have a
distinguished prefix title. As a result, these requirements limit the number of
qualified people available to serve on the committee, yet the committees are
supposed to have quite a few members. Please review assembly doc 109 for
additional context https://kb.wisc.edu/images/group171/33846/109._Distinguished_Prefix_Policies_and_Procedures_Legislation.pdf as well as https://kb.wisc.edu/images/group171/34992/473-DistinguishedPrefixGuidlines.pdf
-
Nominating Committee (aka, Nom Com) (Deb): In 14.12.A.7.b & C,
Nom Com is supposed to provide a slate of nominees according to a specific
schedule. The question brought to assembly last year by PPPC (i.e., Deb) was
about whether that schedule is perhaps too restrictive. There was a
discussion about this in the assembly and Deb will remember more about how
things were left (e.g., whether we should propose language changes in ASPP).
-
Proposed revision to ASPP 11.05 (Carol): Heather Daniels
contacted the PPPC co-chairs regarding an inconsistency between language in 11.05 and state law regarding retention of personnel files
following termination. 11,05 currently says that personnel files are
retained 6 years past employment termination, but state law says this should be
10 years. OHR is recommending 11.05 be revised either to mirror state law
or just reference state law. Please review 11.05 in preparation for the
meeting.
