CUE
discussions cooling off The Faculty Senate did not make a quorum to discuss the Common Undergraduate Experience Thursday and some professors said the turnout for next week’s CUE forum may be small as well. But they said that might be a good thing.
Religion professor Andrew Fort said, “now that the CUE is closer to the (University Curriculum Requirements) maybe there won’t be a huge turnout.” The Faculty Senate will host a forum discussing the Human Experiences and Endeavors rubric for all professors at 3:30 p.m. Monday in Dan Rogers Hall, Room 134. It is the first in a series of three “town hall” forums discussing each rubric of the CUE. Faculty Senators said the meetings may not be as emotional — or as attended — as the Faculty Assembly Jan. 30. “Even though the steam may have de-intensified, to some extent we feel like we are obligated to do these forums for people that really believe that they would have an opportunity” to discuss the CUE, said Carolyn Cagle, chairwoman of the Faculty Senate. “We really want this to be an interchange so we can explore a variety of perspectives. Hopefully everyone feels they have had a contribution to the process.” Cagle said she hopes to have a vote for final approval by April or early May. The Faculty Senate has not approved a draft for faculty-wide approval yet and is awaiting to hear what professors say at the forums, senators said. In other business, Fort presented a proposal by the religion department of a modified version of the CUE, which was e-mailed to faculty Monday. Brandon
