Biographical notes:

The first faculty council was established by President Kenneth G. Matheson in 1922 and consisted of the president, institute administrators such as deans and program directors, and department heads. Matheson's successor, Parke R. Kolbe, increased the council's membership to all with the rank of professor in 1932 or 1933. This expanded Faculty Council's name was changed to "Institute Faculty" in 1947, and later to "University Faculty" in 1970. A smaller governing committee called the Committee on Faculty Affairs (later Committee on Nominations and Faculty Affairs) took an executive role in faculty governance. Governance by a smaller representative group resumed in 1969, when a new Faculty Council, consisting of one member for every 25 faculty, was established.
