The University of North Carolina at Greensboro enjoys a strong system of shared governance between the faculty and University administration. The Faculty Senate is the legislative arm of the General Faculty. It oversees such issues as promotion and tenure policies, curriculum, academic policies, and faculty development and welfare.
The Senate includes 35 members elected from the College, the Schools and the University Libraries with apportionment based on the number of faculty in each unit.
The Senate also includes many elected and appointed committees that address issues such as enrollment and retention, research, compensation and due process. In addition there are advisory committees that work with the budget, the University Teaching and Learning Center, athletics and scholarly communication and computing.
The Senate meets monthly during the academic year. The Senate officers meet regularly with the Chancellor, the Provost and Senate Committee chairs.
