USU Code on Leave of Absence Related to Tenure Extension
-
Policy
405.1.4 (3) Leaves of Absence. An academic year(s) in which leave
without pay is taken will not count as part of the faculty member's
pretenure probationary period. When a tenure-eligible faculty member
is on any leave of absence with pay for one or more semesters in an
academic year, upon recommendation from the faculty member's department
head or supervisor, director (where applicable), and the dean or vice
president, the Provost may approve a hiatus from the faculty member's
pre-tenure probationary in cases such as, but not limited to, Family
and Medical Leave, Sick Leave, Military Leave, and Jury and Witness
leave.

1) Three-year mentoring meeting for Associate Professors
2) Ombudspersons for all T&P meetings
The proposed P&T code changes were based on research
conducted across faculty members from the Colleges
of Science, Agriculture, Engineering, and Natural Resources. For the
most part, the P&T process is a smooth experience. But,
occasionally difficulties do arise. These code changes will help to
mitigate potential abuses and attempt to provide some guidance.
The
following presentations were made to the Faculty Senate meeting held on
February 7, 2005. Faculty Senate voted and passed the proposed code
changes.

For clarifications or impact of these code changes, call Christine Hult or Ronda Callister.
Tenure Clock Extension
The faculty senate approved a policy change regarding tenure-clock extensions.
The
policy code change ensures that consistent standards are followed when
individuals with longer probationary periods are evaluated.
In August 2006, The Board of Trustees passed the policy and it was put into code.
