				date of the dismissal action and at least thirty days prior to the convening of

				dismissal review committee shall be the same [as the] tenure review committee.

				committee shall have the same membership as required for a tenure review
				committee for a probationary academic employee. The members representing the
				academic employees shall be selected by a majority of the academic employees
				and department chairmen acting as a body. The president shall deliver to the
