Appointment: I. Faculty Personnel Decisions at Wittenberg A. Introduction Decisions regarding appointment to the faculty, tenure, and promotion, are among the most critical made by the university. Such decisions require effective, frank, and collegial communication between Faculty, Departments/Programs, the Faculty Personnel Board, and the Provost and the President. The policies that follow are designed to foster such communication by providing clear criteria and processes through which such decisions can be made. While the criteria and the processes are intended to be objective, the application of them is necessarily a subjective endeavor. The policies that follow cannot and should not produce uniformity of final judgments, but they do attempt to guarantee consistency and fairness in criteria and process. The policies and procedures that follow were adopted and approved by the President in 1996, in a process that both revised previous policies and combined several older policy statements into one new document. Therefore many provisions that follow had been policy before 1995, even though in some cases the dates of earlier approval have been deleted. Those wishing to trace the pre-‐1995 evolution of these policies should consult the Faculty Manuals of 1995-‐96 and before. B. Governance and Roles Faculty personnel decisions and the policies that govern them are subject to the authority of the Constitution of the University, the Bylaws of the Board of Directors, and the Bylaws of the Faculty, all found elsewhere in this Manual. The most relevant sections of these are: Article IV, Section 2: Faculty, in the Constitution of Wittenberg University Article VI: Faculty Tenure Policy, in the Bylaws of the Board of Directors Section I.J.1.b. Faculty Personnel Board and Section II: Department Chairpersons, in the Bylaws of the Faculty The policies that follow in this document are subordinate to the governing documents cited above. Some of the key principles found in those documents are these: the authority to grant tenure and to advance faculty members in rank rests with the Board of Directors; the President, upon the recommendation of the Provost, makes annual probationary appointments to the faculty, and the President and the Provost make tenure and promotion recommendations to the Board of Directors (through the Board's Committee on Academic Affairs). the Faculty are entitled to participate in faculty personnel decisions; faculty participation in such decisions lies largely with the administration's consultation with departments (through their chairs or 51
