University Tenure Committee: Membership

Excerpt from the Regulations Relating to the Employment of Tenure Track and Tenured Academic Staff:

7.22

The Dean of each faculty shall appoint one or more UTCs; the number of UTCs shall be decided upon by the Dean and shall be sufficient to deal with the year’s cohort of tenure candidates. Each UTC shall, in addition to the Dean, consist of five members. (…)

7.22.2

By May 15 of the year of tenure consideration, the Dean shall appoint the first two members of each UTC from a list of six tenured members of the faculty (the “faculty list”). The faculty shall determine the manner in which the members of the faculty list are selected. Membership of the faculty list shall be for a two-year renewable term.

No member of the UTC shall hold an appointment in the same department or departments as the candidate. (…)

7.22.5

By May 30, the Secretary-General shall appoint the other three members to each UTC from the list approved by Senate (the “Senate list”). The Senate list shall be composed of:

(i) for each faculty with departments, nine tenured members of the academic staff who do not hold appointment in that faculty; and
(ii) for each faculty without departments, six tenured members of the academic staff who do not hold appointment in that faculty.

Membership of the Senate list shall be for a three-year renewable term.

7.22.6

No members of a UTC appointed by the Secretary-General shall hold appointment in the same faculty.

7.22.7

Appointments to UTCs from the Senate list shall be based on a system of regular rotation and take into account the availability of the members of the academic staff on the list.
