Proposal: Amend the constitution of the 成人头条 Faculty Senate by
eliminating the Faculty Senate's University Admissions Advisory Committee.
Rationale: The University Admissions Advisory committee has not conducted business since its
formation by the Senate. The Exceptions committee is charged to review admissions
policies and procedures, duplicating the charge to the University Admissions Advisory
Committee. Also, the Exceptions Committee rules on Qualified Admissions and includes
a representative from the Admissions Office. By eliminating the University Admissions
Advisory committee the Senate will remove a redundancy in its committee structure.
