Before the faculty senate votes on mandatory cultural diversity courses Tuesday, students and faculty may voice their opinions if they request permission by 5 p.m. today.

People wishing to speak at the meeting must apply in writing. Faculty should apply to the Faculty Senate Office, students to David Gold, chairman of the senate's Student Life Committee, and other interested people to Janet Atwood, chairwoman of the senate, Atwood said.

Community members may address any issue "currently before the senate," according to the standing rules of the senate.
