Department Committee. There shall be a tenure committee in each department in the Schools/Colleges of Business Administration; Engineering; Fine, Performing, and Communication Arts; Liberal Arts and Sciences; Medicine; Pharmacy and Health Sciences that shall be responsible for evaluating candidates and for making tenure recommendations. As the department tenure committee is also the promotion committee, non-tenure track faculty will be part of the tenure committee as outlined in the promotion article (Article XXIII. A.3.B). However, as articulated in Article XXIII.A.3.B, non-tenure track faculty will not vote on tenure decisions. The committee membership shall consist of tenured faculty members elected by the faculty of the department. Faculty holding administrative positions in offices above the unit and in the reporting line shall not be eligible for election. For faculty with a joint appointment, the composition of the tenure committee will reflect the proportionality of that appointment, with the stipulation that the tenure home unit will never receive less than fifty percent (50%) representation on these committees. A two-thirds (2/3) affirmative vote of the membership of the committee shall be required for a recommendation for the granting of tenure. The department chair (or unit head) shall chair the committee without vote. A committee representative shall be elected from among the bargaining-unit members of the committee who shall serve as spokesperson for the committee. When the elected spokesperson does not agree with the recommendation of the department committee with respect to a specific candidate, the voting members of the committee may elect an alternative representative to serve as spokesperson for the committee with respect to that candidate. The recommendation of the committee for the granting of tenure, together with a written assessment and supporting documents, shall be forwarded to the department chair or administrator of equal function. The elected spokesperson shall sign the written assessment for all committee members and the committee vote shall not be included in any communications.
