Note: The election for a non-Senate faculty representative has been postponed until further notice. Current committee members’ terms of service will be extended. The Police Department Oversight Committee will meet virtually in mid-April and determine how to proceed.
Nominations are now being sought for a lecturer, active emeriti, adjunct or clinical faculty representative to serve in the non-Senate faculty seat on the U-M Police Department Oversight Committee.
The Police Department Oversight Committee includes two student members, two faculty members (one Senate faculty and one non-Senate faculty), and two staff members (one union and one non-union representative), who are nominated and elected by their peers for two-year terms.
The committee considers grievances against any police officer or the U-M Police Department and reports its findings and recommendations to the executive director of the Division of Public Safety and Security.
Non-Senate faculty members may nominate themselves or other lecturers, active emeriti, adjunct or clinical faculty members by completing a form on the University Human Resources website at hr.umich.edu/pdoc.
Nominations are accepted through March 20. Only submissions from those eligible to vote in the election will be considered.
The newly elected member’s term will begin in May.
