University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Archives Department.

University of Wisconsin--Milwaukee. Graduate Faculty Council.

Records, 1947-[ongoing].

UWM Archival Collection 83

4.4 cubic ft. (5 boxes)



ABSTRACT: The collection contains numbered documents and minutes of the Graduate Faculty Council largely documenting program reviews, reports, recommendations, changes, and proposals for new graduate programs. Pre-1956 Graduate Council materials concern graduate work at the Milwaukee State Teachers College and at the Wisconsin State College, Milwaukee (UWM predecessor institutions).

ACCESS RESTRICTIONS: There are no access restrictions on the materials, and the collection is open to all members of the public in accordance with state law. However, the researcher assumes full responsibility for conforming with the laws of libel, privacy, and copyright which may be involved in the use of this collection (Wisconsin Statutes 19.21-19.39).


ARRANGEMENT: The files are organized alphabetically by documents and minutes, then chronologically.

A list of the Graduate Faculty Council Documents found in the collection is included below.  Where document numbers are missing, no document for that number exists in the collection.

ADMINISTRATIVE HISTORY: The Graduate Faculty Council is a body representative of the Graduate Faculty. The Graduate Faculty Council maintains a continuing review of existing graduate programs and periodically requests the Graduate Dean's Committee to undertake specific studies and make recommendations to the Council concerning continuance, modification, or discontinuance of existing programs and other matters of concern to the Council.

Departments or other academic units may appeal to the Graduate Dean's Committee, which is responsible for implementation of policies and administrative coordination and supervision of the graduate programs, from administrative actions of the Graduate School office affecting the conduct of graduate programs, subject to final appeal to the Graduate Faculty Council by any aggrieved party. The chairman of the Graduate Faculty Council appoints an ad hoc appeals committee to investigate and review appeals from the Graduate Dean's Committee and make recommendations to the Graduate Faculty Council.
