Faculty Senate

Academic Affairs

Indiana State University has a strong tradition of shared governance, defined by the American Association of University Professors as "the responsibility shared among the different components of the institution—governing boards, administrations, and faculties—for its governance, and the specified areas of primary responsibility for each component." Indiana State's Faculty Senate and its standing committees represent the faculty and participate in crafting and reviewing university policies alongside other stakeholders. They carry out the vital functions of managing the faculty's primary authority over the university's curriculum, teaching, research, and promotion and tenure standards, and advise on a wide range of other issues around campus.
