Articles of Governance for Faculty
The faculty Unclassified Staff Governance Rules found in UW-Extension Articles of Faculty Governance 1-6 and Appendices I-III are derived from the rights and responsibilities given to faculty in Chapter 36 of the Wisconsin State Statutes. These policies guide the faculty’s governance rights and obligations. They are created or altered in consultation between the chancellor and the faculty.
