Dear unit heads,
Your unit's Review and Tenure policies - for both career and tenured faculty - are due in February for review and approval by your dean. Please plan to submit faculty-approved drafts by February 22, 2026 using the process outlined on the Unit Policy Review Process page. This page also includes required templates as well as additional resources to support your policy development.
In alignment with the new CBA, updates to Professional Responsibilities and Merit Review policies will be necessary. Most of these changes will involve straightforward edits to existing template language. We will be in touch with unit heads throughout fall term to provide notice and/or guidance regarding any needed adjustments.
Sincerely,
Ron Bramhall
Associate Vice Provost of Academic Affairs
