<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Dear Gerard and colleagues of the Senate executive committee,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">After more careful consideration of the recommendations proposed by the AC and which we have only really had a few days to review over the past week, and in conversation with some of my constituents and other
colleagues, I am left wondering why the notion of Emergency Grades has not been part of the conversations and instead there has been a flurry of activity to try and mobilize heads and faculty to bypass our IORs/GEs who may go on strike at some point in the
next month. As a senate we approved a document back in 2019 which incorporated the notion of Emergency Grades (see attachments to the motion
<a href="https://senate.uoregon.edu/senate-motions/us1819-10-academic-continuity-plan-policy-proposal">
here</a>) if indeed an emergency is called up. This measure was more sensitive to the notion of academic integrity than the possibility of granting ¡°blank As¡± across the board, which has been mentioned as a possibility, or of heads and other pro-term and non-unionized
faculty, to come in shortly to ¡°assess¡± and grade classes that have taken months to develop through unique expertise in the field.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I wonder if we could have a Senate discussion and possibly a resolution about the viability of emergency grades and to propose that the AC pays specific attention to that format, ie emergency grade granting
to all students impacted by a disruption, rather than to the temporary hire of IORs and permanent grades as currently proposed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
