2018-19 C5 Faculty Building Advisory Committee

FUNCTION: To represent the faculty, staff, and students in matters related to the planning and programming of buildings. The committee shall solicit and serve as the conduit for campus-wide faculty input into the nature and direction of existing building initiatives and the broader building planning process on campus and convey those concerns to all affected stakeholders.  The committee will monitor the proposed and actual responses to these faculty concerns in the design and construction of new and significantly renovated buildings, and it shall report both the concerns and the responses to the president and periodically to the Faculty Council.  No less than annually will the committee meet separately with representatives of extant master planning and public arts committees. A representative of the committee (generally, the chair) shall serve on the Campus Master Planning Committee, or its equivalent. A member of the committee may, when appropriate, be appointed by the president as a voting member to a special committee created during the preparation of the preliminary plans for the erection of a particular building, to serve until the completion thereof. (The revised function was approved by the president on December 1, 2014; D 11939-11943.)



COMPOSITION: Nine voting members of the General Faculty, including a representative from the School of Architecture, and one member of the University staff, all appointed by the President for five-year terms. Two undergraduate students appointed by the President from a panel of names submitted by Student Government, and one graduate student from a panel submitted by the Graduate Student Assembly. Students shall serve one-year terms and shall be eligible for reappointment. The students may not be from the same college or school. In addition, every year the Chair of the Faculty Council shall appoint two voting faculty members of the Faculty Council for one-year terms. Each year, the committee shall elect its own Chair and Vice Chair who shall be voting faculty members of the committee. The Senior Vice President of Financial and Administrative Services or a delegate shall be an ex officio member. The UT System Associate Vice Chancellor for Facilities Planning and Construction and a representative from the Office of Campus Planning and Facilities Management shall serve as administrative advisors without vote.
