  1. Provide an additional mechanism for the views of faculty to be expressed and solicited by the College Administration
  2. Provide a faculty forum for deliberation of college policies as well as recommendations from standing committees, special committees, or individual faculty members.
  3. Make recommendations to the College Administration concerning review of the structure for standing committees within the college as well as monitor and coordinate committee progress.
  4. Call for a faculty meeting, create/convene subcommittees or task forces, and consult on the agenda of scheduled faculty meetings/retreats.
  5. Consult with the college administration on policy implementation and provide recommendations for policy revisions.
  6. Work with the college administration on developing, implementing and monitoring the College’s strategic plan.

The faculty shall select the FGC members to represent them. Faculty representatives must be faculty in good standing with greater than 50% of their primary appointment in the College of Pharmacy. Membership will consist of:

  1. One elected faculty representative from each department within the college. Representatives willing to serve on the FGC will be placed on a ballot within their respective unit. The procedure for voting within a unit will be determined by that unit.
  2. One elected faculty representative from each COP campus location (if not already represented by at least one faculty senator).
  3. College of Pharmacy faculty senators
