POLICY 4.8.3.3 - Appointment to Graduate Faculty Status
Qualification for graduate faculty status is evaluated (a) in conjunction with initial employment, (b) following initial employment of faculty not possessing this status, and (c) in conjunction with annual performance review of faculty possessing this status.
In all three cases, a committee of at least three faculty in that graduate program possessing graduate faculty status shall make a specific recommendation, positive or negative, which shall be forwarded through the dean or director to the Provost, who shall make the decision.
In the case of annual performance of faculty possessing graduate faculty status, deans and directors shall consider the requirement for on-going peer-reviewed scholarship or performance by faculty possessing graduate faculty status. Should any member of the faculty possessing graduate faculty status not clearly meet this requirement looking back over the prior five years, the dean or director shall refer the matter to a committee of faculty in that graduate program of education possessing graduate faculty status.
The provost may combine the faculties of graduate programs of education within schools for the purpose of forming the committees referred to in this section.
