Procedure for Appeals of Promotion and Tenure/Continuing Status Decisions

In cases where the provost has decided not to renew or has denied tenure/continuing status or promotion to a faculty member or professional employee, the faculty member or professional employee may appeal the decision to the president. Such appeals must be filed in writing with the Office of the President within 30 days after notice of the provost's decision, per the University Handbook for Appointed Personnel (UHAP) 3.12.08 and 4.16.

In addition, faculty members or professional employees who have received adverse rulings may have access to their files at a time and place designated by the Office of the Provost. According to the Protocol for Access to Promotion and Tenure or Continuing Status Files, no copies may be made of any of the contents of the file. The names and any information that would reveal the identity of any outside reviewers or students will be redacted from the file prior to being produced for review.

Requests to access promotion and tenure/continuing status files must be made in writing and addressed to the provost.
