Promotion and Tenure. 12.3.1. Promotion and tenure are among the most important decisions a university makes and must be based on the expectation that the candidate is an engaged and effective teacher and mentor; is an active scholar; is contributing to their profession; is a valued contributor to the life of the university through service; and is participating in their community and profession by providing professional service. All Bargaining Unit Members are evaluated annually and at the time of tenure/promotion on teaching/librarianship/advising/, scholarship, and service in relation to university goals and needs and contributions to the discipline.
12.3.1.1. Success in achieving tenure and promotion requires that candidates present evidence making a strong case that they have achieved the criteria articulated in this contract, relative to the academic rank sought. While faculty Work Plans are evaluated on an annual basis, the Promotion and Tenure Portfolio provides a holistic view and demonstrates a body of work over a period of time.
12.3.1.2. All evaluators, both for annual evaluations and promotion and tenure decisions, are trained in the role of evaluation as well as all evaluation policies and procedures, including teaching observations.

Promotion and Tenure. Promotion to Associate Professor shall occur at the same time that Indefinite Tenure occurs. Promotion to the rank of Associate Professor prior to tenure may be awarded in cases of outstanding teaching and research or other extraordinary contributions to the faculty member's discipline. Indefinite Tenure shall become effective at the beginning of the sixth year of full time service. A faculty member may be considered for promotion to Associate Professor after three years of continuous service as Assistant Professor at this University or other colleges. In the event that Indefinite Tenure is not awarded, the faculty member shall be offered a final, one year, non-renewable contract for the sixth year of service. The College Xxxx, at her/his discretion, may choose to recognize the sixth year as a final probationary period after which the faculty member shall be re-evaluated. The awarding of Indefinite Tenure prior to the fifth probationary year is possible in extraordinary cases of outstanding teaching, research and scholarship, or when eligibility for early consideration has been stipulated in the initial hiring contract. Failure to achieve early tenure shall not result in the offering of a final, one year, non-renewable contract for the next academic year.
