Review and Recommendations. a. The Faculty Member’s dossier for the SPE shall be submitted to the Faculty Member’s Department Chair for review. The Chair shall make a recommendation to the Xxxx regarding whether the criteria were met. The Xxxx will ask the College Personnel Committee for a recommendation regarding whether the criteria were met. Neither the Chair nor the College Personnel Committee will make a recommendation as to the tier rating. The language used by the Department Chair and the College Personnel Committee in their respective evaluations will not be restricted as long as neither makes a tier rating. For the purposes of this section, “making a tier rating” shall be understood as an evaluator’s use of the explicit terms, “Tier One.” “Tier Two,” or “Tier Three” in reference to the SPE. The use of qualitative evaluative language by the Chair or College Personnel Committee outside of the terms, “Tier One,” “Tier Two,” or “Tier Three,” shall not constitute an implicit or explicit recommendation of tier rating.
