TEXT OF PRESIDENT McCORMICK'S JUNE 21, 2010 RESPONSE TO THE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS ON CHARGE S-0903, SENATE COMMITTEE CHARGE RESPONSE LIMITS

I write in response to the Report and Recommendations on Charge S-0903 on the Senate Committee Charge Response Limits, as proposed by the University Structure and Governance Committee and adopted by the University Senate on January 29, 2010. The Committee has my thanks for its work in assessing the Senate's internal operating procedures to ensure timely reporting on Senate Committee charges. I look forward to the implementation of these deadline changes when the Senate reconvenes in the fall.

Sincerely yours,
Richard L. McCormick

c:  Philip Furmanski, Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs
