Award of Tenure. The award of tenure shall be selective and conditioned upon positive recommendation through the review process described in Article 4.11 and predicated upon departmental goals consistent with institutional plans and needs. Under the circumstances where a President believes the negative recommendation of a member constitutes an extraordinary injustice, the President may recommend tenure. The probationary period (full-time service prior to the acquisition of tenure) shall not exceed seven (7) years of service in the university provided that all seven (7) years fall within the same ten (10) year period. 4.4.1 Prior service on special appointment at one of the universities shall be applied to the probationary period at that university. 4.4.2 Up to three years’ full-time service in other accredited colleges and universities may be applied toward the probationary period by written agreement of the concerned parties at the time of the member’s initial appointment, or not later than the end of the first semester of a member’s probationary service. Such credit for prior service shall not affect notice requirements under Article 4.9. 4.4.3 Notice of award of tenure shall be made in writing by letter described in Appendix B of this Agreement. 4.4.4 When a tenured member leaves the bargaining unit for any other non-management position within the University, conditions of return, if any, shall require consultation with the department and written agreement of member, CSU-AAUP and the Board. Any resulting agreement shall prevail over the provisions of any future CSU-AAUP Agreement.
