Reason for Policy

The various faculty and librarian ranks and titles used in the Indiana University system are discussed in the University Policies as well as the IU Indianapolis Faculty Guide, but some clarification regarding what constitutes the "voting faculty" should be made.

For details, see the current IU Indianapolis Faculty Council Constitution.
