Tenure Clock Stoppage: The campus is offering an听opt-in听tenure clock stoppage.
鈥� Tenure-track faculty members who began their appointments through the 2021-2022听academic year (i.e., who started in either Fall 2021 or Spring 2022) are eligible to request a听tenure clock stoppage due to mitigating听circumstances (e.g., caregiving responsibilities, insurmountable challenges, delays, or听closures as it relates to their research, scholarly, and creative work).听
鈥� This stoppage will take place in between the faculty member鈥檚 comprehensive review and听the tenure review.
Process: If a tenure-track faculty member would like to request a听tenure clock听stoppage, they must inform their chair, director, or dean. The chair/director/dean must then听inform the appropriate faculty liaison who administers tenure reviews for the unit. The听faculty听liaison must inform the Office of Faculty Affairs, using the Optional听Pandemic Tenure听Clock Stoppage Request Form on the Faculty Affairs website, so the faculty member鈥檚听tenure clock dates can be adjusted officially in their personnel file held in the听Office of听Faculty Affairs.
For the purpose of keeping track of changes made to the tenure clock, please copy the candidate, department, and college/school dean鈥檚 office on the approved request using the CC function below.
