  1. Personnel Committee • Personnel Committee has considered three issues related to the NTT faculty. • Hiring • Promotion • Termination

  2. Committee found out that there's an inconsistency in the intent of having NTT faculty and details of these processes. • CRR 310.035.H clearly states that NTT faculty appointments are usually 1- year contracts and cannot be more that 3 years. • (This clause conveys a short-term association.)

  3. 310.035.E states a hiring process that are (almost) identical to the tenured/tenure-track faculty. • 310.035.F states qualifications that are (almost) identical to the tenured/tenure-track faculty. • 310.035.I states performance evaluation procedures that are (almost) identical to the tenured/tenure-track faculty. • (These clauses convey long-term associations.)

  4. 310.035.K states a detailed (336 words) promotion process that's similar to the tenured/tenured-track faculty. • (This clause also conveys a long-term association.)

  5. 310.035.J states the termination process as a 3-month notice or less time under extenuating circumstances. • (This clause clearly conveys a short-term association.)

  6. The Personnel Committee's sentiment was that the inclusion of more protective steps during the termination would make the NTT and the regular faculty processes practically identical. (In that case, the only difference becomes the range of their responsibilities.)

  7. Committee decided to: simplify the hiring and the promotion processes, strengthen the termination process slightly by requiring an explanation, and stress the point that the intent of hiring NTT faculty is to have short-term solutions to teaching and research needs, and tenured faculty should be sought for long-term strategic goals.
