both from the campus as a whole and from each department,
Whereas, these decisions cannot be responsibly carried out without proper knowledge
and understanding of UCSD’s budget,
Let be it resolved, that the Academic Senate, San Diego Division, establish by March
15, 2010, a Senate Task Force on Budget Transparency whose charge is to work with
the administration to determine
• the format in which the complete UCSD budget should be presented quarterly to
the Academic Senate San Diego Division,
• the nature and the detail of budget data it should contain, and
Be it further resolved, that the UCSD Senate Council will appoint to the Senate Task
Force on Budget Transparency, in consultation with department chairs and with relevant
Academic Senate Committees, members from each academic division at least one of
whom is knowledgeable in budget and accounting procedures, the current or a former
chair of the UCSD Senate Planning and Budget Committee, and two current or former
UCSD administrators with relevant expertise.
