In fulfilling its advisory function with regard to tenure and promotions, the Committee shall observe the following procedures: Copies of Departmental recommendations for tenure and promotion and all supporting documentation, including Departmental tenure policies and procedures, shall be available to all members of the Committee prior to and during its deliberations.  This documentation shall be held confidential and returned to the office of the Dean at the end of the deliberations on each case. A Departmental representative must be available to appear before the committee to answer any questions the committee may have prior to its deliberation and vote.  The Departmental representative is not expected to present the case formally but simply to answer questions that the Committee believes will clarify the case. The Chair or Director of the academic unit, who normally serves as representative, may bring along an additional faculty member who has specific expertise in the candidate’s subject or field. The Departmental representative will leave prior to the deliberation and vote of the Committee. A member of the Committee who is also a member of the candidate's Department may not participate in sessions which deal with that candidate and may not vote on the question. The Committee may solicit additional advice in any manner that it deems appropriate. At the conclusion of its deliberations, the recommendations of the Committee shall be determined by secret ballot of its elected members, with the exception noted in c. above. After reviewing the candidacy, the Dean shall transmit his or her decision in writing to the candidate and the Chair of the candidate's Department or Program, and the Dean shall inform the Committee. The delivery of the written notification to the candidate and the candidate’s academic unit normally occurs after the Board of Trustees meeting on the first Friday in March. In the event of a negative decision and at the candidate's request: The candidate shall be advised in writing by the Dean of the reasons that contributed to that decision, and The Committee's recommendation and the division of its vote shall be communicated in confidence to the candidate and the Department chair. Should the Dean not accept the Committee's recommendation, he or she shall convene the Committee to discuss the reasons. The candidate or the candidate's Department may request reconsideration of denial of tenure promotion; reconsideration will not normally be undertaken unless new and substantial evidence is available. All deliberations of the Committee shall be confidential. Copies of all correspondence as well as records of verbal evaluations solicited outside committee meetings and used by the Committee in reaching decisions shall be made part of the permanent record of the procedure and shall be available if necessary to review committees of the Faculty and the University. Nothing in the above paragraphs shall be construed to prejudice the rights of faculty members to appeal to the appropriate Arts & Sciences and University committees charged with reviewing tenure and promotion decisions. The Chair of the Committee shall, without disclosing confidential matters concerning specific individuals, report annually to the Faculty on the Committee's actions and findings.  Quick Links2021 A&S STRATEGIC PLANForms & policiesEventsDirectoryContact One wustlAdditional information Arts & Sciences Graduate Studies in A&SCopyright 2024 by:Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. LouisFollow Us Instagram Facebook Twitter YouTube LinkedIn Contact Us: Office of the Dean [email protected] Visit the main Washington University in St. Louis website1 Brookings Drive / St. Louis, MO 63130 / wustl.edu
