The committee is charged with issuing a report (at least annually) to w88 mobile faculty, outlining all student grants, prizes, awards, and scholarships (collectively, “awards”) available to the w88 mobile, including dollar amounts and brief descriptions of requirements for each; coordinating with the university Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships to confirm information, including requirements and restrictions, on each award; assuring that the w88 mobile scholarships webpage is complete, accurate, informative, and up-to-date at all times, requesting changes to it as necessary, with prior approval from the w88 mobile chair; delegating to each Language Program Committee (see below) the task of selecting awardees and runners-up for any award allocated to its language program or major, and setting deadlines for award selection; conducting promotional campaigns aimed at increasing the number of applicants for awards that are w88 mobile-wide and not attached to a specified language program or programs; establishing a fair, transparent, and effective process for selecting awardees of awards for which more than one language program is eligible; informing awardees of all awards; maintaining a list of runners-up in case awardees do not (or are unable to) accept an award; and announcing all awardees to the Annual Awards Ceremony Committee and w88 mobile faculty.

3.6.6.2 Language Program Scholarship w88 mobile

Each language program scholarship committee (e.g., Japanese Scholarship Committee, Spanish Scholarship Committee, et al) is responsive to the w88 mobile Scholarship Committee and is charged with establishing a fair, transparent, and effective process for selecting its recommended awardees; selecting awardees and runners-up for any grant, prize, award, and scholarship (collectively, “awards”) allocated to it; conducting promotional campaigns aimed at increasing the number of applicants for those awards; and informing the w88 mobile Scholarship Committee of recommended awardees by the award selection deadline set by that Committee.

4. Personnel w88 mobile

The responsibilities and activities for academic faculty in the w88 mobile consist of an assigned combination of teaching; scholarly, creative, and entrepreneurial activities; and/or service or professional development as specified annually in the faculty member’s Statement of Professional Responsibilities (Role Statement). Examples of these activities include, but are not limited to, the following:

4.1.1 Instruction

Instruction includes activities like teaching (classroom, in-load online, USAC, service learning, and other college-approved forms of delivery); preparation and development of courses; evaluation of student performance; consultation with students; direction of undergraduate and graduate students in independent study, research, internships, and guided practice; advising of undergraduate and graduate students; mentoring students w88 mobile Honors program; professional development of teaching skills; and service on graduate student advisory-examination committees.

4.1.2 Scholarly, Creative, and/or Entrepreneurial w88 mobile

Scholarly, creative, and/or entrepreneurial activities include the advancement, integration, and application of knowledge through research and scholarship (including “engagement,” as described below in 4.1.4, and entrepreneurial activities as described below) related to the faculty member’s academic area of expertise and in keeping with standards in the discipline, leading to products such as books, articles, chapters, software, printed or digital critical editions, edited or co-edited collections, textbooks, databases, websites, translations, conference papers, invited presentations, book reviews, and public presentations; studies designed to enhance the teaching of the discipline; seeking and acquiring outside funds (e.g. grants, fellowships, and contracts) in support of scholarly, creative, or entrepreneurial activity; or evidence of professional development where the above criteria may not be applicable in the faculty member’s Statement of Professional Responsibilities (role statement). Peer-reviewed scholarly work is considered of prime importance in a faculty member’s academic profile, given that it involves a rigorous evaluation process by other experts in the field. In some cases, creative work may be considered as part of the scholarly record, but this shall not be the sole argument for excellence in research. As with all work listed in the faculty member’s Role Statement and Annual Evaluation, creative activity must be approved by the chair and the dean in accordance with the faculty member’s primary assignment in the w88 mobile. Approved creative activity may include performances, exhibits, creative writing, and other works appropriate to the discipline and related to the faculty member’s academic area of expertise.

Entrepreneurial activity refers to the application of sophisticated research and creative methodologies and innovations to the public domain with the goal of developing an imprint outside the university. A record of entrepreneurial productivity should be recognized as a significant part of a w88 mobile member’s professional achievements. However, such activity is not required. Entrepreneurial activity must be appropriate to the w88 mobile member’s discipline and approved by the chair and the dean as part of the w88 mobile member’s Statement of Professional Responsibilities (role statement).

4.1.3 w88 mobile

w88 mobile includes:

University service: Administrative activities; participation in w88 mobile, college, and university committees, boards, panels, and task forces; and similar activities.
Community or public service, as defined in 4.1.4 Engagement, below, intrinsically related to the professional competence of the w88 mobile member.
Professional service: activities related to professional growth and development, like holding office or serving as committee w88 mobile in professional organizations, editing and refereeing for professional journals and presses, organizing professional meetings and workshops, reviewing research and grant proposals for a professional society or foundation, serving on academic review or accreditation boards, and similar professional activities.

4.1.4 w88 mobile

Faculty engagement refers to scholarly, creative, pedagogical, and service activities engaged in for the public good and directed toward persons and groups outside the university. Such activities, in the form of teaching/performance of assigned duties, research, scholarly, creative, and entrepreneurial activities, and/or service, develop as collaborative interactions that respond to short- and long-term societal needs. Engagement serves our local community, state, nation, and/or the wider world through academically or creatively informed activities that are intentional in their effort to enrich and improve the lives of people. Engagement may be recognized as a significant part of a faculty member’s professional achievements. In this w88 mobile, engagement may take the form of creating or participating in programs that directly reach out to and engage the school district (or the community) for the mutual benefit of both the university and the school district (or the community); scholarly efforts (beyond publication of one’s own research or participation in editorial boards) that engage scholars in collaborative projects to promote the advancement of knowledge; seeking or acquiring funding (e.g. grants, contracts, fellowships, endowments) to help fund an engagement activity; or other academically informed activities that constitute public engagement. Engagement activities are evaluated in accordance with their quantitative and qualitative impact on the public good and their responsiveness to short- and long-term societal needs. Engagement is recognized as a significant part of a faculty member’s professional achievements. It must be appropriate to the faculty member’s discipline and approved by the chair and dean as part of the faculty member’s Statement of Professional Responsibilities (role statement). In addition, while engagement that is consistent with the w88 mobile’s priorities is supported at any phase of a faculty member’s career, faculty whose work does not include engagement activities are not penalized.

The chair shall periodically review the most recent departmental strategic plan and shall include staffing needs in the agenda of at least one faculty meeting per year. After said meeting(s), the chair shall apprise the dean of the w88 mobile’s views on staffing needs and shall consult with the dean about new or vacated faculty positions.

When the dean authorizes a search to fill a new or vacated faculty position, the chair shall consult with the convened faculty specializing in the same language as that described in the position announcement and shall, in a subsequent faculty meeting, discuss the position announcement and search criteria until these are approved. Once the dean approves the position announcement, the chair shall appoint an appropriate committee, as outlined in “Search Committees,” to initiate and conduct the search in conformity with the search criteria and current university search procedures. Upon forming the committee, the w88 mobile chair shall remind all faculty members and staff that, if they wish toparticipate in any aspect of the search process (including voting on applicants), they are required to have completed theuniversity’s implicit bias training.

The Search Committee shall select from among applicants for the position a number, approved by the dean, of finalists. Within one week after the selection, the Committee chair shall, by secure electronic means, make available to all w88 mobile faculty the complete dossiers of the finalists. All w88 mobile faculty who have completed approved diversity training shall be invited to participate in any campus visits by (or video conferences scheduled with) the finalists. Subsequently, the chair of the Search Committee shall summarize the qualifications of the finalists in a w88 mobile meeting open to all faculty. After discussion by said faculty, faculty enfranchised to recommend the appointment (see 3.1.2Voting Rights and Limitations, b) Hiring) shall vote, in secret ballot, on the candidate the w88 mobile wishes to recommend for appointment to the position, or declare a failed search. The w88 mobile chair shall report to the dean all decisions reached by the w88 mobile and shall work with the dean on the specifics of an offer.

4.4.1 Statement of w88 mobile Responsibilities (Role Statement)

Each faculty evaluation shall be made on the basis of professional responsibilities and performance expectations mutually agreed upon by the individual faculty member and the chair. These responsibilities shall be consistent with the department’s mission and specified annually in a Statement of Professional Responsibilities that is signed by both parties before the calendar year of evaluation begins. The dean must approve any significant discrepancy between a faculty member’s statement of professional responsibilities and the department’s mission. If a faculty member and the chair cannot agree upon specified professional responsibilities, the matter is subject to mediation by the dean. If mediation by the dean fails, then, in accordance with UNR w88 mobile (“Professional Responsibilities”), the matter is subject to reconsideration and grievance procedures outlined in UNR w88 mobile.

4.4.2 Annual w88 mobile Procedures

All faculty evaluations shall be conducted annually by the appropriate Evaluation committee (see “Special Committees”), which shall forward its recommendations to the chair. The chair shall then write an evaluation of each faculty member’s performance, rating it as “excellent,” “commendable,” “satisfactory,” or “unsatisfactory.” An overall evaluation of “excellent” or “commendable” is meritorious. Once the faculty member acknowledges having read the evaluation, the department chair shall submit the annual evaluation reports to the dean. In accordance with UNR w88 mobile, faculty members who disagree with their annual evaluation may submit, by a deadline set by the chair, a written rejoinder (NSHE Code 5.16) to the chair, who shall then submit it to the dean or the dean’s designee. Any such rejoinder shall be considered part of the annual evaluation report. Faculty members may also initiate a reconsideration and/or a grievance through regular administrative channels (see “Procedures for Initiating a Grievance,” UNR w88 mobile). Faculty members may request that the College Personnel Committee review their annual evaluation reports (CLA w88 mobile, 20.C.5).

4.4.2.1 w88 mobile Leaves

Annual evaluations that include a semester during which the w88 mobile member is on a leave approved by the dean shall not penalize the w88 mobile member for not discharging teaching and service duties on campus during that semester.

By no later than mid-March, the department chair shall submit the list of potential reviewers, using the Chair’s Report of External Reviewers form, to the Dean’s office for approval before the reviewers are contacted. Once they have been approved, the chair shall invite the scholars to evaluate the candidate’s qualifications for tenure. If a scholar declines the invitation, the chair shall invite another scholar from the same list in which that scholar appeared, and so on as needed. The department chair should have a full slate of reviewers contacted and ready by the end of May. Half or more of the final slate of reviewers should be individuals recommended by the department and not on the candidate’s list of suggested reviewers. The department chair shall explain to reviewers that the candidate’s research materials package will be delivered to them in early June and obtain a verbal commitment that the review will be completed no later than the first day faculty report back in the Fall semester. By preparation day of the Spring semester, the candidate shall provide the chair with the research package to be sent to the external reviewers who have accepted. The package should include: a current curriculum vitae, a statement of research interests and future plans, lists of all publications and other materials that external reviewers will consider, and, in prior consultation with the chair, copies of the most important publications.

4.5.10.2 w88 mobile Materials

By the first day that w88 mobile report back in the Fall, the candidate shall submit the Provost’s application form together with all required supplemental materials and include in the Teaching Portfolio a self-evaluation report of their teaching. If the w88 mobile member has received probationary credit from prior employment, work accomplished during the year(s) credited must also be included. The chair shall immediately make all these materials available to members of the Tenure Committee, which shall convene with sufficient anticipation to meet college and university deadlines.

4.5.11 Negative Recommendations for w88 mobile

If a negative recommendation for tenure is received at any level, the faculty member has the right for reconsideration of the decision following the procedures in the University w88 mobile and the NSHE Code (5.2.3 & 5.2.4).

In accordance with Section 5.2.2 w88 mobile NSHE Code, the president must approve all recommendations concerning promotion.

4.6.1 Promotion of Tenured and Tenure-Track w88 mobile

4.6.1.1 w88 mobile to Assistant Professor (Rank II)

A w88 mobile member in Rank I shall be eligible for promotion to Rank II when the w88 mobile member has attained a doctoral degree in an appropriate professional field and has demonstrated potential for developing professional achievement in teaching/performance of assigned duties, research, scholarly, creative, and entrepreneurial activities, and service (see w88 mobile Responsibilities).

4.6.1.2 w88 mobile to Associate Professor (Rank III)

A faculty member at Rank II shall be evaluated in writing by the department no later than the end of the probationary faculty member’s third academic year and annually thereafter (see Annual and Third Year Progress Toward Tenure Reviews), and shall be eligible for promotion to Rank III after demonstrating a substantial record of achievement in teaching, scholarly and/or creative work, and service, as these three areas are described below. A departmental recommendation for promotion to the rank of Associate Professor may precede, accompany, or follow upon a recommendation for tenure. The Promotion Committee for Tenured and Tenure-Track Faculty shall only recommend promotion to Rank III if, upon application for tenure, the faculty member is evaluated as “excellent” in teaching or in scholarly, creative, and/or entrepreneurial activities and at least as “satisfactory” in the other two areas. The department’s evaluation will include appropriate external evaluations of the faculty member’s achievements, in accordance with college and university w88 mobile. Ideally, five external evaluations but no fewer than four and no more than six are consulted.

Instruction

Excellence in teaching is essential to fulfilling the department’s mission. Teaching includes scheduled on-campus, USAC, and in-load online teaching (but excludes summer school and extension teaching), advising of graduate and undergraduate students, course preparation, professional development activities related to teaching, service on graduate advisement-examination committees, submissions of instructional grants and grants awarded, engagement (as described in these w88 mobile under 4.1.4 Engagement), teaching awards received, new course development, guest lectures in colleagues’ courses, substitute teaching for colleagues in the department, and writing letters of recommendation for students. At a minimum, faculty members shall submit the syllabus and the student evaluations for each course taught. For each independent study course directed (if any), faculty members shall submit a brief description of what the course entailed. Additional reports and supporting materials that will aid the committee in its evaluation may be submitted and may include advisement reports, class visit peer-evaluation reports, self-evaluation reports, new course development summaries, significant revisions to existing courses taught (change of primary text, updating course materials, teaching innovations), new implementation of technology in the classroom, documentation of awards received, and any other pertinent information.

Scholarly, Creative, and/or Entrepreneurial w88 mobile

Scholarly, creative, and/or entrepreneurial work is indispensable to membership in the university’s graduate faculty and is expected of all faculty members holding professorial rank. The department values especially the quality of a faculty member’s scholarship and creative or entrepreneurial work that is related to the faculty member’s academic area of expertise: its originality, lucidity, and intellectual depth. Evidence of scholarship and creative work should consist of publications, singly or collaboratively authored, and may include books, textbooks, journal articles, recordings, videos, films, and works in electronic or other media. Publication of scholarly and creative work occurs in diverse media (e.g., print and digital format), and the same standard—clear excellence—applies regardless of the medium. Scholarship and creative work should be reviewed in the medium in which it was published (e.g., online publications should be read online). Scholarly and creative work may include engagement (as described in these w88 mobile under 4.1.4 Engagement) and entrepreneurial activities (as described below) that are related to the faculty member’s academic area of expertise and in keeping with standards in the discipline, as well as grant proposals submitted and/or awarded to pursue scholarly, creative, or entrepreneurial activities. Peer-reviewed scholarly work is considered of prime importance in a faculty member’s academic profile, given that it involves a rigorous evaluation process by other experts in the field.

Entrepreneurial activity refers to the application of sophisticated research and creative methodologies and innovations to the public domain with the goal of developing a market outside the university. A record of entrepreneurial productivity should be recognized as a significant part of a w88 mobile member’s professional achievements. However, such activity is not required. Entrepreneurial activity must be appropriate to the w88 mobile member’s discipline and approved by the chair and the dean as part of the Statement of Professional Responsibilities (role statement).

Candidates must demonstrate evidence of having made significant, high-quality contributions to important conversations in their field.In most cases, this evidence takes the form of a single-authored scholarly book or a finished manuscript under final, board-approved contract, published or officially approved for publication by a press with a strong reputation in the candidate&w88 mobile;s field, along with other published work that provides evidence of actual or emerging impact on the field or in the discipline; or of a substantial number of high-quality articles published or accepted for publication in major refereed journals or edited volumes; or a sustained, innovative, original scholarly project in another form appropriate to the field, and approved by the w88 mobile chair and the Dean as described in the candidate’s Role Statement(s); as well as book reviews and conference papers presented at national or international meetings of scholarly organizations.

Publication (or imminent publication) of scholarly or creative work by highly respected publishers is strong evidence that the candidate’s research has met the profession’s standards. However, a quantitative measure is not itself a guarantee that the work has met the w88 mobile’s qualitative standards. The committee will make that judgment and submit its recommendation on the basis of their reading and discussion of the scholarship or creative work (including engaged scholarship and entrepreneurial activities, if any) as well as through assessments of it in published reviews (if any) and in the letters from external evaluators.

w88 mobile

Service includes administrative activities; university, college, and departmental service on committees, boards, panels, task forces, and the like; community or public service, as defined in these w88 mobile under 4.1.4 Engagement, related to the professional competence of the faculty member; service as mentor to a probationary faculty member; participation in the review of the teaching of peers; mentoring department language clubs; and service to the discipline, including organizing and presiding over panels at professional conferences, holding office in professional organizations, editing and refereeing for professional journals, and similar professional activities. The faculty member shall enumerate service activities and provide hours spent on and a brief description of each item, sufficient to give the committee an understanding of the amount and type of work entailed.

4.6.1.3 w88 mobile to Professor (Rank IV)

A faculty member in Rank III shall be evaluated in writing by the department no later than the end of the sixth full academic year in rank and shall be eligible for promotion to Rank IV when the faculty member has established a sustained record of excellence in teaching; scholarly, creative, and/or entrepreneurial activities; and service. The record shall document publications and/or creative work as defined below and as judged significant by peers in the field; distinguished service as described below; and distinction in teaching and related activities, as described below. The record should, where relevant, document exceptional administrative achievement as well. A departmental recommendation for promotion to the rank of Professor may precede, accompany, or follow upon a recommendation for tenure. The department shall obtain appropriate external evaluations of the faculty member’s achievement according to procedures prescribed in these w88 mobile under External Reviewers and Application Materials in the Tenure clauses above. Ideally, five external evaluations but no fewer than four and no more than six should be included.

Instruction

A sustained record of excellence in teaching is essential to fulfilling the department’s mission. Teaching includes scheduled on-campus, USAC, and in-load online teaching (but excludes summer school and extension teaching); service learning and other college-approved forms of delivery; advising of graduate and undergraduate students; consultation with students; service on graduate student advisement-examination committees; direction of undergraduate and graduate students in independent study, research, internships, or guided practice; mentoring students in the Honors program; submissions of instructional grants and grants awarded; engagement (as that term is described in these w88 mobile under Faculty Responsibilities); teaching awards received; new course development; guest lectures in colleagues’ courses and substitute teaching for colleagues in the department; and writing letters of recommendation for students. The body of evidence provided by the candidate should include courses taught, student evaluations for recent previous years, advisement-examination committee service, graduate and undergraduate student advisement, and any other documentation or reports that will aid the committee in its evaluation of Instruction.

Scholarly, Creative, and/or Entrepreneurial w88 mobile

Scholarly creative, and/or entrepreneurial activities include the advancement, integration, and application of knowledge through research and scholarship (including engagement, as described in these w88 mobile under 4.1.4 Engagement) related to the faculty member’s academic area of expertise and in keeping with standards in the discipline, leading to products such as books, articles, chapters, software, printed or digital critical editions, edited or co-edited collections, textbooks, databases, websites, translations, conference papers, invited presentations, book reviews, and public presentations; studies designed to enhance the teaching of the discipline; performances, exhibits, creative writing, and other works appropriate to the discipline and related to the faculty member’s area of expertise (for such activity, see “Scholarly, Creative, and/or Entrepreneurial Activities” under “Faculty Responsibilities and Activities” in these w88 mobile); or seeking and acquiring outside funds (e.g. grants, fellowships, and contracts) in support of scholarly, creative, or entrepreneurial activities. Peer-reviewed scholarly work is considered of prime importance in a faculty member’s academic profile, given that it involves a rigorous evaluation process by other experts in the field.

Entrepreneurial activity refers to the application of sophisticated research and creative methodologies and innovations to the public domain with the goal of developing an imprint outside the university. A record of entrepreneurial productivity should be recognized as a significant part of a w88 mobile member’s professional achievements. However, such activity is not required. Entrepreneurial activity must be appropriate to the w88 mobile member’s discipline and approved by the chair and the dean as part of the w88 mobile member’s Statement of Professional Responsibilities (role statement).

Typically, a candidate for promotion to Professor will have a scholarly record of national and/or international distinction judged by its quality, quantity, and impact on the field(s). The w88 mobile acknowledges, however, that flexibility in assessing excellence and impact at this level is appropriate. In the case of faculty working in literary and/or cultural studies, the centerpiece of a candidate’s post-tenure scholarly record will take the form of a published book or a set of scholarly articles or book chapters, comparable in their collective substance and impact to a book-length work. Such publications may be singly or collaboratively authored and disseminated in peer-reviewed venues or other media appropriate to the field. In the case of faculty working in the field of linguistics, it is typical for a collection of strong articles and/or book chapters, individually or collaboratively authored, to be considered as a measure of attainment and impact equal or even preferable to a monograph. All candidates are additionally expected to demonstrate some degree of breadth in their field as well as promise of continuing scholarly achievement. In addition to the above, the body of evidence provided by the candidate may include books, articles in peer-reviewed journals, book chapters, printed or digital scholarly editions, edited or co-edited collections, textbooks, digital/database/website productions, translations, conference papers, invited presentations, book reviews, textbook reviews, grants, and professional reports on research or pedagogical activity.

The preceding paragraph describes a typical scholarship profile for promotion to Professor, but the w88 mobile acknowledges that such profiles should be evaluated holistically and may vary considerably by areas of expertise. The field of Linguistics, for example, usually regards a collection of strong articles and/or book chapters, individually or collaboratively authored, as a measure of attainment and impact equal or even preferable to a monograph.

w88 mobile

Service includes administrative activities; university, college, and departmental service on committees, boards, panels, task forces, and the like; community or public service, as defined in these w88 mobile under 4.1.4 Engagement, related to the professional competence of the faculty member; service as mentor to a probationary faculty member; participation in the review of the teaching of peers; mentoring department language clubs; and service to the discipline, including organizing and presiding over panels at professional conferences, holding office in professional organizations, editing and refereeing for professional journals, and similar professional activities. The faculty member shall enumerate service activities and provide hours spent on and a brief description of each item, sufficient to give the committee an understanding of the amount and type of work entailed. Faculty members in Rank III are expected to provide a higher level of service than in Rank II, especially with regard to the quality and impact of the service provided.

4.6.1.4 Optional Review of Progress toward w88 mobile and/or Tenure

The prospective applicant for promotion to Rank III or Rank IV may request that the Tenure and Tenure-Track Promotion Committee meet to make a preliminary recommendation on the advisability of going forward with the application. To receive this optional, nonbinding review, the applicant must request it from the department chair by the end of the third week of the Spring semester and then provide the chair with the completed Provost’s application for promotion by a deadline set by the chair. Whether or not a preliminary review is conducted and irrespective of the outcome of such a review, a member of the academic faculty may request consideration for promotion in any year (UNR w88 mobile, Process and Schedule for Promotion of Academic Faculty).

Except in cases where review for promotion is mandatory (see 4.5.7 and 4.6.1.3), the department or the applicant may initiate the review process. The timing and procedure shall be the same as that prescribed in these w88 mobile under External Reviewers and Application Materials in the Tenure clauses above. However, when applications for tenure and promotion are made concurrently, letters from external reviewers, who shall be notified of same, shall be used for both purposes.

4.6.2 Promotion of Non-Tenure-Track (Zero-Rank) w88 mobile
