Term limits for chairs have been discussed at FSU but not implemented in part because deans want to build and maintain their teams. Fayetteville has no university wide chair development.
Chairs do meet regularly under the leadership of an associate provost.
Policies are discussed at these meetings and chairs give suggestions for future meetings. The chancellor has also met with chairs on occasion in this setting to explain policies and initiatives. The effectiveness of these meeting has not been assessed. In this setting and at the level of the deans some mentoring occurs as well, such as in technical areas. Currently, chairs know little about UNC and campus wide policies.
