To: Members of the Los Angeles Division of the Academic Senate
Dear Colleagues:
The final meeting of the 2023–2024 Legislative Assembly will take place on Thursday, May 16, 2024, from 2–4 p.m. via Zoom.
Resulting from the emergency special Legislative Assembly meeting on Friday, May 10, 2024, the May 16 agenda has been revised and is available now on the Legislative Assembly Agenda page. (Note: Times on agendas are placeholders, subject to motions to limit or extend debate on the agenda item.)
The revised agenda includes the following:
- Addition of Minutes from the May 10 meeting on the Consent Calendar
- Addition of Resolution of No Confidence in Chancellor Block under Unfinished Business (Note: The one-minute limit on speaking and the speaker queue remain in place.)
- Addition of Resolution to Censure Chancellor Block under New Business
Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Darnell Hunt and Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Monroe Gorden, Jr. will no longer present at this meeting and will join a future meeting.
Members will vote on bylaw and regulation revisions proposed by various schools and departments and for At-Large Members of the Executive Board.
The following seven Academic Senate members are candidates for five available At-Large seats:
- Nicholas Brecha, Neurobiology, Ophthalmology, Medicine-Gastroenterology
- Brandon Koretz, Medicine-Geriatrics
- Purnima Mankekar, Gender Studies, Anthropology, Asian American Studies
- Tara Peris, Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences
- Catherine Sugar, Biostatistics, Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences
- Kabir Yadav, Harbor/UCLA Emergency Medicine
- Robert Zeithammer, Management
Each department and School has formal voting representation (PDF) to the Assembly. Additionally, only members of the Academic Senate and certified student representative observers may attend. In the spirit of shared governance, I encourage you to do so.
To ensure the integrity and security of the meeting, it is important for all non-representative attendees to RSVP via the Google Form. Details for Zoom will be provided to those who RSVP by 12 p.m. PDT on Wednesday, May 15, 2024.
I look forward to “seeing you” at the Legislative Assembly meeting on May 16, 2024.
Sincerely,
Linda Sarna
Secretary, Academic Senate
