Also, the No Solicitation/No Distribution policy was discussed at the meeting. The wording of this policy prevents faculty members or employees from soliciting or promoting support for any cause or organization during his or her working time or during the working time of the faculty or employee at whom such activity is directed. Secretary of the Institute and General Counsel Charles Carletta explained during the meeting that the policy was intended to prevent outside organizations from soliciting or selling to employees or students. However, Napolitano felt that there needed to be a clearer understanding on how the policy applied to academic freedom. Discussion in the Senate meeting was in regard to which were appropriate and inappropriate actions that faculty could take. One question, for example, was whether a professor would be in violation of the policy if he or she encouraged students to join a professional society. More discussion has been scheduled as to how this policy affects faculty members.
