Equivalencies. Since the professional preparation and Scholarship/Research of the "traditional" academic are established by external evaluation, Xxxxxxx University may wish to establish a non-traditional academic member's equivalencies thereto by means of external evaluation. Such external evaluations are not to be requested for individual items of work published in refereed journals or books; neither are they meant to transfer the responsibility of making judgments from the Xxxx/Director or Committee to an external body. Appropriate questions for external evaluations concern, for example, the general significance of a member's work in the special field; the significance of unpublished work or work in progress; and/or the standing of certain journals, institutes or publishers. In such cases, the Xxxx/Director and/or a Committee shall request a list of possible referees from the member. If additional referees are required, their names shall be submitted to the member for his/her approval. Assessments shall not be solicited without the consent of the member, but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In situations involving promotions to Professor or Professional Associate IV, the opinion of outside referees shall be sought. The candidate will submit three (3) names of persons whose references s/he would wish to place before the Promotions Committee. S/he should provide a brief statement about each person named. The Committee will consider the candidate's list and obtain references from not less than two (2) persons on that list. In addition, it will obtain references from one other qualified person whose name will be provided to the Committee by the appropriate Xxxx/Director in consultation with the Department. Such external evaluations are not to be requested for individual items of work published in refereed journals or books; neither are they meant to transfer the responsibility of making judgments from the Xxxx/Director or Committee to an external body. Appropriate questions for external evaluations concern, for example, the general significance of a member's work in the special field; the significance of unpublished work or work in progress; and/or the standing of certain journals, institutes or publishers.
