Senate Resolution 96/97-03: Voting Privileges for Research and Clinical Faculty in University Review Board Elections
Whereas:
Whereas: Research and Clinical faculty are reviewed by the University Review Board for promotion, and
Whereas: Research and Clinical faculty are afforded the privilege of membership on various University bodies inclusive of the Faculty Senate, but exclusive of Promotion and Tenure Committees and the University Review Board; and
Whereas: while membership of Research and Clinical faculty has not been deemed appropriate, nevertheless, it is appropriate and reasonable in terms of due process for Research and Clinical faculty to participate in the election of the University Review Board where their promotions are reviewed.
Therefore be it resolved that:
The University of Alabama in Huntsville the Faculty Handbook section 7.9.11, be amended to read: Tenured, tenure-earning, research, and clinical faculty not on termination notice are eligible to vote in URB election.
