RECRUIT AND RETAIN FACULTY

Initiative: Discuss with the campus community the appropriate emphasis that will be placed on teaching/learning, research/scholarship, and service/outreach for annual reviews, merit-pay increases, promotion and tenure decisions, and post-tenure review.

  • The University Promotions and Tenure Committee has held panels each semester, with the Provost included on the panel, where many of these issues were discussed. Attendance has been over 100 at every meeting. An especially created Task Force (see below) also considered these issues and made recommendations currently under consideration by the Faculty Senate.
