Comments
Yudof Responds to the UCLA FA Letter
June 30, 2009, with the reminder:
“We appreciate your sharing your views, and we welcome
having them, but we do wish to remind you of Bylaw 16.9 of
the University, which states that communications from
members of the faculty to the Board of Regents must be
presented through the President.”
The FA at UCLA would like to direct President Yudof’s attention to
the History of the Faculty Association at UCLA to see that it is an independent association of faculty on this campus since the early
1970s. It is entirely dues supported. As an independent association of academic Senate members, the FA has the right to engage in advocacy on the part of the faculty interests before the UCLA campus administration, the UC central administration, and the state legislature.
