All UCCS faculty members are part of the Faculty Assembly. Faculty Assembly usually meets once or twice annually. A representative group meets monthly during the academic year. The representative group has elected officers of the Faculty Assembly, elected Faculty Council representatives and elected representatives from each college and the Kraemer Family Library. All members of the faculty are also part of the Faculty Senate which is a CU System-wide group.
