2013 Election Results
The results of the 2013 faculty elections are in! Congratulations to all those elected, and many thanks to everyone who volunteered to run for all offices and all of the voters who took time to cast ballots.
Voter turnout
Valid ballots were issued via email to 3665 voting-eligible members of the faculty. 1605 voters cast ballots, for a turnout rate of 43.8%, the best rate since our record-keeping on turnout percentages began in 1997.

Election results
Winners are listed below in alphabetical order. These individuals were elected and will take office July 1, 2013 for a three-year term ending June 30, 2016. There is an expectation that you will attend all meetings of the body to which you have been elected unless prevented for good cause. There is no procedure for designating a substitute for less than one semester. There is also no procedure for voting by proxy or in absentia. If you plan to resign from the University, retire, or go on leave for one semester or longer, please inform the Office of Faculty Governance.
Alternates are listed in the order of votes received. These individuals were not elected, but may be called upon to serve in the future should a temporary or permanent vacancy arise on the committee for which you were a candidate. In those cases, the Secretary of the Faculty fills the vacancy by appointing the first alternate in the most recent election for that position.
