Common use of Performance Appraisal Process Clause in Contracts

Performance Appraisal Process. By the fifth class day after classes reconvene in the Spring Semester, using the university’s faculty activities system, each faculty member will submit to their Department Chairperson or School Director a final report of their accomplishments during the previous calendar year. This report will be accompanied by the faculty member’s proposed goals and objectives for the calendar year (see (3) above). A faculty member who wishes to be considered for the rating of Exceptional Annual Performance is expected to attach full and appropriate documentation of their accomplishments listed in the report. Other faculty are not expected to attach documentation to their accomplishment reports, except for their advisement survey and student rating reports. However, faculty members are required to submit reasonable documentation and/or other information regarding their accomplishment reports when requested to do so by their Chairperson or Director. A tenured faculty member of the rank of University Professor, Professor, or Associate Professor who has received a rating of Meritorious or Exceptional Annual Performance for the previous year, in agreement with his/her Chair- person/Director, may forego the accomplishment report and will receive an adjectival rating of Meritorious Annual Performance. This option may not be used in any two consecutive years. Faculty members who are within 24 months of their approved retirement date may also forego the accomplish- ment report and will receive an adjectival rating of Meritorious Annual Performance.
