SEC RESOLUTION on TRUSTEE SELECTION

Welcome to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Senate website. We hope this site will provide convenient access to useful information. If there is something you would like to have available here, please let us know. Your thoughts and opinions are important to us.

The Senate on the Urbana-Champaign campus is a legislative body comprised of 200 faculty and 50 students. Duties of senate committees are specified in the Senate Bylaws.

The University of Illinois Statutes, Article II, Section 1, provide for a senate to be constituted at each campus of the University, to exercise legislative functions in matters of educational policy such as:

• The Academic Calendar.
• Requirements for admission to colleges and schools
• Requirements for degrees and certificates

• Each senate shall also recommend candidates for honorary degrees, and may propose amendments to the Statutes through the University Senates Conference to the President and the Board of Trustees.
