Academic senates need more transparency: Guest le?avis LG&date 20170.Attachment 3 to AS-3298-17/EXSan Bernardino County Sun (http://www.sbsun.com)Academic senates need more transparency: Guest commentaryBy Paul Granillo and Lou MonvilleMonday, May 8, 2017We urge passage of Assembly Bill 847, authored byAssemblyman Raul Bocanegra, D-San Fernando, that wouldrequire academic senates at campuses of California StateUniversity and California Community Colleges to publish thenames of their members and their demographic makeup on apublic website, as most other publicly funded entities arerequired to do. The bill would request the same of theindependent University of California campuses.For too long some academic senates and their executivecommittees, who are vested with great authority, have been ableto hide in the shadows — using authority and intimidation to impose their will, creating a campus climatewhere innovation and best practices are actively pushed aside in favor of the status quo, protecting powerand influence for the few.In our opinion perhaps the worst example of this behavior is the current Academic Senate ExecutiveCommittee at our alma mater, Cal State San Bernardino.Six years ago, we served on the presidential search committee, along with two current CSUSB AcademicSenate Executive Committee members, that chose President Tomas Morales. They made it clear then thatPresident Morales was not “their” candidate and have used the shadowy world of the Academic senate towork against him before he ever came to campus and ever since. What is even more troubling is theAcademic Senate “candidate” for campus president at the time was the former CSUSB provost, who alsonow serves on the Academic Senate Executive Committee.The recent call for a vote of no confidence in President Morales is nothing more than tilting at windmills.Don Quixote himself would hang his head in shame.It is our opinion the CSUSB Academic Senate Executive Committee has waged an open war on civilityand innovation on campus. Any effort to increase faculty accountability, enhance student success or tomodernize and improve campus operations is met with relentless opposition. Faculty who speak in favorof counter ideas are quietly pulled aside and told their tenure or promotion is at risk if they don’t fall inline, and yes, the Academic Senate does largely control the promotion and tenure of their own. Evenworse, student government leaders, who serve on the Academic Senate, report they are routinely bulliedand harassed at Academic Senate meetings. Is this the example we want for the next generation ofleaders?1 of 25/17/17 2:43 PM

Academic senates need more transparency: Guest le?avis LG&date 20170.Such examples demonstrate why passage of AB847 is needed. Freedom of thought and expressionwithout intimidation should be the hallmark of higher education, but until academic senates are open andtransparent, this is a mark we will continue to miss.Academic senates play a vital function and when run honorably and openly are beacons for studentprogress and success.
