Joint Appointment Cases

Policy 05.20.01 Appointment, Reappointment, Promotion and Permanent Tenure Section 7.2 states that in cases of reappointment, promotion and tenure for faculty with joint appointments, departments will jointly recommend. The department heads and deans (if two colleges involved) will decide which department and thus college will submit the dossier to the Provost. Both departments and colleges, if applicable, will carry out the complete review process; but only the submitting department will solicit external reviews which both departments and colleges will use. The submitting department and college will have responsibility for submitting a cover form that includes DVF and College RPT Committee votes from both units. Further, the submitting department will be responsible for providing the DVF assessment and department head assessments from both units. If two colleges are involved, the submitting college will be responsible for providing the College Reappointment Promotion and Tenure Committee assessment and dean assessments from both colleges.

All communication from the Provost's office will be with the submitting department/college.
