March 31 update (2): I’ve now received a copy of the plan for Psychological and Behavioral sciences:
Program Change Plan – School of Psych and Behavior Sciences
March 31 update (1): all the school plans are being modified to have the schools “temporarily” report directly to the Provost (now to be Meera Komarraju, if confirmed by the BOT.). That is, they wouldn’t be assigned to any college, but would be free floating until the college structure is fixed.

This post will be updated as we get more RME’s in.
Now (10:00 pm 3/21) with an update from CASA and (3/26) the Agriculture “renaming” RME.
The administration is now pushing forward restructuring colleges. And, at least in some cases, faculty are being given all of a week to vote on huge changes–dismemberment of their current college, moving to a new college, or accepting additional programs to their college.

After a bit of a lull, the administration is starting to push forward with restructuring plans. Three “Program Change Plans” reached us last night (3/8). The administration has set an initial deadline of March 30 for departmental votes on these proposals, with April 6 the deadline for the FA to provide its response.
