Avoiding conflict of interest situations Sample Clauses

Avoiding conflict of interest situations a. The external evaluator should have no conflict of interest (a “Conflict”), with the candidate. Conflict pertains to situations in which the external evaluator has a personal relationship or a professional relationship in which the evaluator would be in a position to derive personal benefit from the candidate’s career. In determining whether a conflict exists under this section, the parties shall apply a reasonable person standard and in making the determination shall consider factors such as the nature of the relationship, the degree to which the relationship would be viewed by a reasonable person as being a conflict, the amount of time which has passed since the relationship in question, the availability of other qualified individuals to review the particular scholarship in question and other pertinent factors. The standards set forth in this section shall be applied with such factors in mind. In the event of a disagreement between the candidate, Chair and Xxxx as to whether a conflict exists, the Xxxx shall determine the issue. The candidate may appeal the Xxxx’x decision to the Xxxxxxx who shall have the final determination. In any case where the parties determine that a potential conflict should not serve as a bar to the choice of a particular outside evaluator, the parties shall document their reasoning. Such documentation shall be filed with the Xxxxxxx’x Office. Once a determination is made under this section, that decision may not be challenged by any participant in the tenure and promotion process absent a showing of new evidence which was not included in the documentation filed with the Xxxxxxx.
