The purpose of this policy is to present the greater duties of the teaching staff. B. General Duties 1. Serving the community and profession.
Faculty participate in department, college or school, and university committees.
On all department, college or school, and university governance committees, whenever a vote is required, only full-time probationary or tenured faculty may vote. In selecting a department chair, only full-time probationary or tenured faculty may vote. Only tenured faculty may serve on personnel committees. Lecturers, faculty associates, and specialists, while not full time tenured or probationary faculty, are nevertheless expected to contribute their expertise and skills to projects of departments, colleges or schools, and the university, but they do not vote. Their contributions should receive the same respect accorded other faculty.
