Policy No. 106

Tenure

Adopted: 04/23/96
Revisions Approved: 10/29/24

The College supports the concept and purposes of academic tenure. The following guidelines should control tenure recommendation:

  1. Tenure is to be recommended only after the most careful consideration of past and potential contribution to the College. At the December Board meeting, the Chief Academic Officer will brief the Board on each faculty member to be tenured as of the following September.
  2. In considering tenure appointment, weight will be given to distinction in teaching and in service to the College.
  3. All recommendations will be expected to be considered in the context of the College mission, overall needs, and long-range plans of the department and the campus as a whole.
