Things are moving forward with our tech appeals process. The committee has updated the form to streamline the process and allow for a faster decision making process. We are also working on an automated response when an appeal form is submitted. There were some concerns about summer appeals being delayed because senate was not in session. The committee realized the need for continuous review of appeals to ensure proper processing time. There was a consensus for making a transition to a faculty led committee with student representation. In order to ensure student representation in the appeals process we have created online resources that can be accessed by student senate members from remote locations–whether or not senate is in session–and we will review previous scenarios to take precedent into consideration. I believe that these steps will help to bring additional consistency to the appeals process.
