Hey all,

I'm sure you've all seen the Faculty Council email about changes to its constitution. How about we do a quick email vote to endorse this resolution below.

"The Executive Committee of the FSU enthusiastically supports the proposed amendments to its constitution recently circulated by our colleagues on the Faculty Council Executive Committee. We note with particular approval the proposed expansion of representation for NTT faculty and urge all unit members to vote in favor of the amendments."

What do you think?
