In 2021 FSU allowed specialized faculty like me i.e., 12-month non-tenured faculty to be eligible to run for faculty senators. In Feburary, I expressed my interest and was nominated by couple of my colleagues.
I ran for senator from one of the three biggest colleges in FSU, Arts & Sciences. Due to the support of several of my colleagues and well-wishers, I was elected to serve the FSU Faculty Senate for two years starting from 2021 and ending in 2023.
I attended the first Faculty Senate meeting as a Senator on April 14, 2021.
