Abstract
Shared governance in higher education across the United States has been impacted this year by Covid-19. Many institutions have needed to move online not just in instruction but in administration. The role that faculty play in administration has subsequently also been impacted. However, some changes could be seen as positive as we move in to a digital world – from the use of video recording to interactivity. As the Faculty Senate President of Utah Valley University, the largest institution in Utah, and also as the Utah Council on Faculty Senate Leaders chair, I recognize unanticipated benefits that are likely to play a role well in to the future. In some ways, technology has enhanced discussions, fact finding, information sharing, voice, and diplomacy.
