Discussion and Debate Forum:
This is a new
segment of the Senate agenda. Members of the University Senate will have the first
privilege to speak and express their concerns, followed by comments from
non-senate members. No one may speak a second time on an issue until everyone
has had an opportunity to speak once.
All speakers will have a three-minute maximum time for debate.
The Senate
leadership seeks to facilitate communication as a regular function of the
Senate. An objective of the forum is to
allow time for open dialogue regarding issues affecting the University and to
encourage an environment of tolerance and respect for others. All University Senate members, faculty, and
friends of the Senate are invited to participate.
Today’s topic
for discussion and debate is “ Diversity Issues at Auburn University.”
