Role of the Faculty Senate
The Lehigh Faculty Senate provides the faculty’s voice in university governance and in communication with all groups within the campus community. The faculty senate’s scope spans consultation with campus groups (particularly the administration), shared decision-making, and full responsibility for academic curricula and procedures. The work of the senate involves both formal consultation on policy issues and university operations as well as communication with faculty and the campus community. Areas of relevance to the senate include educational and research policy, hiring policy including tenure and promotion, protection of academic freedom, university operations including budget and admissions, and matters of campus life including fostering an inclusive environment for all.
