The Faculty Senate (AUFS) is an essential component of University shared governance. It is composed of Senators elected by each college or school, who represent the faculty of their college/school. Senators keep in touch with their constituent faculty so they can truly represent them at Senate meetings and keep them informed.
We represent faculty in shared governance as practiced at Augusta University.
The principle and practice of collaboration between administration, faculty, staff, and students in fulfilling the mission of Augusta University, based on collegiality, inclusivity, trust, accountability, and transparency (AUFS Executive Committee, July 2021).

The Executive Committee may propose new committees to serve the purposes of the Faculty Senate as part of shared governance. These committees must be approved by the Senate. The Executive Committee may also form ad hoc committees as needed to support the activities of the Senate, which do not require Senate approval. Other committees and work groups will be reviewed and incorporated in the AU system of shared governance as deemed appropriate.
