III. Faculty: Personnel Policies, Practices, and Procedures

J. Procedures for Continued Evaluation of Tenured Faculty

1. In an effort to support the professional development of faculty, maintain excellence in teaching, and sustain academic citizenship, Randolph College has established a system of continued review of tenured faculty. The purpose of the continued evaluation of faculty is to assist individuals in realizing their full potential as teachers, scholars, artists, and members of the College community.

2. All tenured faculty are responsible for submitting the following materials to the Dean of the College on an annual basis: Faculty Activity Report, updated curriculum vita, and completed course evaluations (following procedures outlined III. E.).

3. Beginning in the fourth year after tenure and continuing every four years, each faculty member will meet with the Dean of the College to review the faculty member's professional progress in teaching, scholarly and artistic activity, and service. At the request of the faculty member, the Dean of the College may grant an extension.

4. The Dean of the College's office will be responsible for notifying faculty when they are scheduled to meet with the Dean. After the meeting, the faculty member will receive a letter from the Dean summarizing the discussion.
