Back to TopNominations for UK Board of TrusteesMembers of the University Faculty, The UK Board of Trustees is the highest governing
body of the University and establishes the various policies directly
affecting the programs created by, employment conditions of, and the
academic careers of, the University Faculty. Faculty Trustee Joe Peek resigned from his seat
on the UK Board of Trustees, effective December 31, 2011.
Under state law, an election must be held to determine a member of the
University Faculty body who will fill the seat for the remainder of its
unexpired term, through June 30, 2013. The UK Board of Trustees has
delegated to the University Senate the authority to conduct the election,
and the University Senate has in turn delegated the certification of
candidate and voter eligibilities in the election to the Senate’s Rules and
Elections Committee. This announcement briefly explains the election
process that is now commencing. The objective is to complete the
election in time for the new Faculty Trustee to be sworn in and attend the
next scheduled Board of Trustees meeting on Feb. 21, 2012.
Click here for the Nomination Petition.
A.
Persons Eligible to Submit Nominations. The Senate Council
Office will receive (either hand-delivered to 203E Main Bldg. or by color
pdf scan to sbrothers@uky.edu)
nominations of candidates submitted by any faculty employee of any title, rank series, or administrative assignment;
whether full-time, temporary or part-time; and including those who may not be a
member of the formal College Faculty body of their college. The deadline for
submitting the petition is noon Friday, January 20, 2012. The faculty
employee taking responsibility for submitting the petition is responsible to (1)
confirm that at least ten (10) persons signing the petition are eligible to vote
in the election, (2) confirm that the individual being nominated is eligible to
be elected and (3) confirm the individual nominated is willing to serve. Persons
may self-nominate. A petition form provided by the Senate Council Office must
be used (a copy is also attached to this email). Submitted petitions will not
be opened and certified until after the above deadline for submission of
petitions. Petitions not satisfying one or more of the above requirements will
not be certified and the nominated person will not be placed on the ballot. B. University Faculty Members Eligible to Sign
Nominating Petitions and Vote.. Persons eligible to sign nominating petitions and
vote in the election must be a member of the University Faculty (i.e.,
a member of the faculty body of one of the colleges), who are in a status of
regular, full-time employment in the Regular Title Series, Special Title
Series, Extension Title Series, Librarian Title Series, Clinical Title
Series or Research Title Series or at or above the rank of
Assistant Professor, who have not been appointed to an administrative
position at/above the level of department chair, and who are not on phased
retirement. C. University Faculty Members Who are Eligible to be Elected. Under current state law and
University regulations, persons eligible to be elected must be a
member of the University Faculty (i.e., a member of the faculty body of one of
the colleges), who are in a status of regular, full-time employment, and with a
rank of Assistant Professor (or its equivalent) or higher, in either the Regular
Title Series, Special Title Series, Extension Title Series or Librarian Title
Series, (but who have not been administratively appointed to a position at/above
the level of department chair nor are on phased retirement). Also note, the
University by state law is not allowed to employ a relative of a Faculty
Trustee. The election of a representative of the University
Faculty to the UK Board of Trustees is an important authority afforded
directly to the members of the University Faculty through state law enacted
by the Kentucky Legislature. All individuals eligible to participate
in any of the above election capacities are strongly urged to do so, to
ensure the quality of the election and thereby maximize the stature and
presence of the chosen University Faculty representative on the Board of
Trustees. Davy Jones, Chair Senate Rules and Elections Committee Back to Top College Meetings DatesThe 2012 College Meetings for faculty and
