The Faculty Council (FR) is traditionally the highest decision-making body of the faculty. Since the integration of the academic college courses in 2013. However, our faculty has multiple campuses, each of Louvain, Brussels, Antwerp and Kortrijk. The campuses are so-called "subfaculties" each with its own Subfaculteitsraad (SFR). Only exception therein Leuven and Kortrijk which together form one subfaculty and thus share one SFr. The Subfaculteitsraad Arts @ Leuven Kortrijk is the highest organ of our sub-faculty and is where the combined opinions of the different POC and vote. Also subfaculteitsbrede matter is obviously at issue here. The actual Faculty spanning all subfaculties treats only matter that concerns the entire faculty (such as the election of a new Dean), and occurs only rarely together.
(Sub) Faculty Council consists of all ZAP members (i.e., all professors) of the (sub-) faculty, a number of representatives of the ABAP (i.e., the assistants) and ATP (i.e. administrative staff) and student representatives. Students still have 10% of the votes. The meeting is chaired by the (campus) dean Jo Tollebeek.
The Teaching Commission (DC) is the faculty POC of the Faculty of Arts and coordinates all training-POC of our faculty. She prepares all major education-related decisions at faculty level and discusses the decisions of individual training-POC. You could she look so if the "educational variant" of the Faculty Council.
