Tenure track faculty members in their third and sixth pre-tenure years must be evaluated by their department's Committee on Appointments, Promotions, and Tenure (DCAPT). These evaluations shall address the faculty member's:
- knowledge of academic field and commitment to continuing development of this competence
- dedication to effective teaching
- commitment to a continuing program of research or other advanced creative activity
- willingness to assume a fair share of university administrative and service tasks.
Reviews take place in the spring of the appropriate year and are managed by the Faculty Affairs Office.
