Faculty Senate Bill 12-A-2 begins here
Service is identified in the Faculty Tenure and Promotion Policy as one of the “critical areas” in which faculty can make a contribution to the University, the community, and the profession, and by which they are judged for purposes of tenure, promotion, and merit. Service to the University may take many forms including, but not limited to, academic advising, membership and leadership on committees, sponsorship of student organizations, providing student recommendations, and participation in commencement exercises. Faculty members should consult their departmental Promotion and Tenure criteria to understand how service is construed in their own department.
Commencement exercises are held two times annually--in the winter and spring.
