Policy Regarding Participation in Personnel Decisions

Purpose of Policy

Schools and departments at baby直播app have considerable discretion in determining eligibility to vote on various matters. However, it is reasonable to set guidelines regarding eligibility to vote in matters regarding promotion and tenure, where school recommendations are made to the Provost and President.

Policy

For promotion and tenure reviews, participation in the school and departmental review process should be limited to faculty members who have already achieved the status for which the colleague is being considered. For schools in which a single, school-wide committee reviews all tenure-track promotions and/or appointments to tenured status, all members of such a committee should be tenured and the majority should be tenured full professors. For reviews of external appointments, the same practice should apply for the final school review.

Committee members of lower rank should not participate in the review process on the recommended appointment of a faculty member to a status higher than their own. However, for schools in which a single vote is taken regarding external appointments (i.e., where there is no multi-step process such as a departmental vote followed by further consideration by a faculty group at the school level), it is permissible to allow tenure-track faculty who have not already achieved the status for which the appointment is being considered to participate in the review process.

In no case should persons ineligible to vote on a school promotion and tenure committee have access to documents or materials generated for purposes of reviewing the qualifications of the candidate for promotion or tenure. Such materials include but are not limited to confidential school ad hoc committee reports and external letters solicited by the committee members or by the dean in connection with the review.
