WHEREAS, the dates for the Annual Performance Evaluation have been changed; the following changes need to be made in the Faculty Handbook.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED

Section 7.8.1 is revised to read:

Annual performance evaluations for tenured, tenure-earning, clinical, and research faculty, based on the faculty member’s record during the period April 1 of the past year to March 31 of the current year, are conducted by the Chair during the spring semester. The faculty member will submit her/his file as directed by the Chair.

Section 7.8.1 (c) The Chair meets with the faculty member by April 30 to discuss her or his performance and evaluation by the Chair. To assure that the review is a two-way experience, the chair gives the person being reviewed a full opportunity to discuss strengths and weaknesses, problems, and ways in which the department Chair, or other colleagues, might be helpful in improving performance.
