N/C-Faculty Senators Council Recommendation regarding Faculty Handbook

 

At the November 20, 2014 meeting of the N/C-Faculty Senators Council, the review and recommendations of the Taskforce on Review of the Faculty Handbook and Guidelines were approved.

It is our expectation that the N/C-FSC will offer additional recommendations for revisions to the Faculty Handbook as necessary. In particular, our Council will continue to review issues involving regulations concerning disciplinary procedures and grievance and appeals procedures for full-time non-tenure track/contract faculty (FTNTT/CF). Our Council will take time to develop procedures tailored to the specific needs of FTNTT/CF with plans to make these recommendations to the Provost in early spring 2015. In the interim, we recommend that policies be put in place for FTNTT/CF that mirror those currently in place for tenured/tenure track faculty.
