From:     Francesca Hopkins, Chair
           Committee on Committees (CoC)

Re:     2026-27 Standing Committee Service Preference



Deadline - February 23, 2026



As a member of the Academic Senate, your active participation on Senate
Standing Committees is essential to the continued success of shared
governance and is considered a chief component of your contribution to
university service as defined in the Academic Personnel Manual. As such,
your participation in the committee selection process is essential. Even if
you cannot serve next year, please complete the form so that the Academic
Senate has a record of your acknowledgment of this message.


To that end, please use the link below to be directed to the Senate website
where you can designate committees on which you would be willing to serve
in 2026-27. Please note the service year commences on September 1, 2026 and
concludes on August 31, 2027.


All members of the Academic Senate are eligible to participate and are
strongly encouraged to complete the form, as well as Emeritus faculty. The
form does not include requests for College/School Executive Committees or
the Committee on Committees since membership on these committees is
determined through a separate nomination and election process.


In order to submit your 2026-27 committee service preferences please follow
the instructions below:



   1.

   Click on the link: https://senate.ucr.edu/rsenate/cpf



   2.

   When logging in, use your UCR Net ID and password to complete the
   form. Your UCR Net ID and password are the same as those for your UCR email
   account. If you are unable to log in, you may contact Sarah Miller at
   sarah.miller at ucr.edu for assistance.



   3.

   Fill out the form online and click the green button "Submit".


The deadline for submitting the form with your choices is Monday, February
23, 2026. Your preferences must be submitted via this form. Using the
required form ensures that your information is a part of the CoC database
which is the primary source of information used by the committee when
assigning faculty members to Academic Senate committees.


I remind you that the University of California has historically been based
on a policy of shared governance. This policy can remain healthy only if
faculty members agree to serve on Academic Senate and Administrative
Committees. We need to have sufficient numbers of diverse faculty
volunteers in order to populate the committees with faculty who are
informed, interested, and engaged in the committee’s topic. In addition, it
is important that you select committees for which you seriously wish to be
considered a member.

Thank you in advance for your participation.
