A letter sent to faculty on post- tenure review procedures drew fire from several Faculty Senate representatives during the senate meeting Nov. 9.
Faculty are in the process of preparing their policies now.
Each policy is to be approved by the departmental faculty, the dean and the provost. If we follow the suggestions outlined in this letter, not only are we going against the post-tenure review policy that we approved, but we're actually going to create more work than necessary. Other senators took exception to a statement in the letter that annual reviews couldn't be used as post-tenure reviews. They said nothing in the post-tenure review policy prevents faculty from fashioning their plans along the lines of the annual review. Ulrichson agreed the statement in the letter was incorrect.
