The Senate Council’s recommendations to the Dean are reported by the Speaker for confirmation or consent. A complete description of the Senate Council’s responsibilities is contained in Section 3 of the Senate’s By-laws.
The Senate Council meets at least twice each month with the Dean and reports of the proceedings of its meetings to the Senate. The Minutes of each meeting are prepared by the Vice-Speaker and distributed monthly to the members of the Senate.
