Abstract/Contents

Abstract: This interview with Marion Lewenstein focuses on the Stanford University Faculty Senate from her perspective as the 15th academic secretary to the university from 1991 to 1994. Lewenstein recalls how she was recruited to the faculty of the Communication Department and later became the academic secretary of the university. She shares observations of several Faculty Senate chairs, the responsibilities of the position of academic secretary, and issues addressed by the senate. She discusses the senate’s effort to help the university become a nationally renowned higher education institution as well as the general roles the senate serves for the university and the faculty.
