Eligibility for tenure review. Except as authorized in writing by the Xxxxxxx 12 or designee, a bargaining unit faculty member is entitled to a decision on tenure only after six 13 consecutive academic or fiscal years of employment at 1.0 FTE per year or the equivalent of 14 consecutive part time employment at or above 0.5 FTE per year. An appointment is considered 15 consecutive even if interrupted by one or more approved leaves of absence. The period of an 16 approved leave of absence does not count toward consideration for tenure unless the bargaining 17 unit faculty member elects otherwise. 19 Tenure and Promotion Criteria 21 Section 3. The University follows the same general timetable, process, and standards of 22 performance for evaluation and promotion as do many other public research universities, 23 particularly AAU institutions. The University also considers AAUP guidelines for tenure review 24 and promotion. 26 The tenured faculty in each department or unit will begin the process of developing a written 27 policy setting forth tenure and promotion criteria that are consistent with university-wide 28 criteria, by first considering any input provided by the department or unit head, xxxx, vice 29 president, Xxxxxxx, or designee. The faculty will submit their recommended policy to the 30 appropriate xxxx, vice president, or designee for review. The xxxx, vice president, or designee 31 will document and discuss any revisions they make to the policy with the faculty before 32 submitting his or her recommended policy to the Xxxxxxx or designee. The Xxxxxxx or designee 33 will have final authority to establish the policy for each department or unit. If the xxxx, vice 34 president, Xxxxxxx or designee materially alters the faculty-recommended policy, they will 35 provide a written explanation for the change(s) to the faculty in the department or unit. The 36 department or unit head, xxxx, vice president, Xxxxxxx, or designee may initiate changes to 37 established policies by informing the appropriate faculty of the change being considered, 38 thereby initiating the process described in this Section. 39 40 Faculty initiated revisions will follow the process set forth in Article 4, Section 4.
