On October 24, President Tripathi promulgated the Faculty Senate Resolution to Revise the Policies, Procedures, and Criteria for Appointment, Promotion & Tenure (CAPT), which had been unanimously approved at the September 17, 2024 Faculty Senate meeting. The updated Policies, Procedures, and Criteria for Appointment, Promotion & Tenure are effective as of July 1, 2025.
The following updated Policies, Procedures, and Criteria for Faculty Personnel Actions is effective starting July 1, 2025 for cases being considered in Fall 2025.
For dossiers submitted BEFORE July 1, 2025 for consideration during the 2024-25 academic year, please use the old Policies, Procedures, and Criteria for Appointment, Promotion & Tenure.
A faculty member who wishes to withdraw from the review process must send a written request for withdrawal to the administrative officer before whom the case is then pending, with copies to the administrative officers who have completed action on the case. For example, if a faculty member wishes to withdraw after a case has been forwarded from the department, the letter of withdrawal should be sent to the dean, with a copy to the chair. The administrative officer receiving a letter of withdrawal shall then acknowledge receipt of the request and approve it by letter to the candidate, with copies to the administrative officers who have already taken action and to the next higher level of review.
