| 2.4 Transfer of Tenure and Rank Between Academic Units | Deleted the first paragraph [In academic year 2005, the Senate Academic Policy Committee introduced a proposal similar to this one on the floor of the University Senate. That proposal was tabled because at the time it appeared that it would no longer be a Senate issue and that it would be dealt with by the AAUP. However, as negotiations proceed, it appears that those issues dealing with shared governance and that have traditionally been within the responsibility of the Senate will largely remain the responsibility of the Senate, with salaries and wages and benefits being likely notable exceptions. Rather, the current thinking seems to be to protect the departmental/school Charters and Senate policies through language within the AAUP contract, while avoiding as much as possible the inclusion there of the details. Hence, this proposal once again comes to the Senate, but as a new proposal.]; with the deletion of section 2.3 For Future Use renumbered the remaining sections and 2.5.
