Appendix E.2 | Initiation of Post-Tenure Review by the Provost
As stated in Section 4.9.2, Post-tenure Review will be initiated by the provost when a faculty member has:
- received one (1) overall annual performance rating of “Failure to Meet Responsibilities”; or
- received one (1) annual performance rating of “Failure to Meet Responsibilities” in the subscore of “Faculty Teaching”; or
- received two (2) overall annual performance ratings of “Improvement Needed” during any four (4) consecutive Annual Performance Review cycles; or
- received two (2) annual performance ratings of “Improvement Needed” during any four (4) consecutive Annual Performance Review cycles in the subscore
of “Faculty Teaching”.
The provost must first review any annual performance review that resulted in triggering Post-tenure Review. If the provost overrules the performance rating given during the annual performance review and determines that Post-tenure Review is not warranted, then the Post-tenure Review process ends.
If the provost determines that Post-tenure Review is warranted, then the provost shall
meet with the faculty member no later than 21 days after the determination to explain
the decision and review the procedures for the Post-tenure Review process. The provost
must also provide written notice of this decision within 30 days to the faculty member
with copies to the department chair, dean, president, and Faculty Senate President
that Post-tenure Review will be initiated.
