When applying for promotion or tenure, all administrative staff with faculty rank must follow the procedures in Section 2.9 and 2.10. These procedures begin at the level of the academic department. In all cases, a summative evaluation shall be performed before formal consideration for promotion and tenure. In the summative process, it is the responsibility of administrators to support with adequate evidence their being qualified for promotion and tenure in all three areas (teaching, research, service). In addition, administrators who teach must be reviewed annually at the department level by following the formative evaluation process described in Sections 2.10.3.1 to 2.10.3.3.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#top\">Back to Top<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>Changes to Section of Manual<\/h5>\n<table class=\"table-defaults table-lines-vertical table-lines-horizontal table-header-red table-border-black\" style=\"width: 644px;height: 52px\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th width=\"22%\">Effective Date<\/th>\n<th width=\"20%\">Origin<\/th>\n<th width=\"22%\">Change Form<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>N\/A<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3.7.1 Plans and Report 3.7.1.1 Approval of Plans 3.7.1.2 Approval of Reports 3.7.2 Other Evaluations of Administrators 3.7.3 Summative Evaluations The University encourages active participation in professional development by administrators including Deans, Directors, and Department Heads.
