Progress Toward Tenure
The P&T Committee will conduct an annual review of all probationary faculty. Each probationary faculty member will submit a dossier and documentation of accomplishments for the prior academic year. The following materials are to be submitted by the second Monday of September:
- Tenure-track faculty dossier in the CHSP template
- https://www.ohio.edu/chsp/policies-and-forms
- Note for the progress for tenure reviews: only sections one and four should be included (located in the CHSP guidelines Part II D)
- Teaching Portfolio
- Description of personal teaching philosophy
- A paragraph summary of the way each course not explained in the College template was taught and why (e.g., how each course has evolved over time) o Teaching evidence and supporting documentation of all teaching-related accomplishments (examples listed in Appendix B)
- Research Portfolio
- Scholarly evidence and supporting documentation of all scholarship-related accomplishments (see examples in Appendix C)
- • Service Portfolio
- Service evidence and supporting documentation of all service-related accomplishments (see examples in Appendix D)
When a probationary faculty member is submitting materials for the pre-tenure review (i.e. Third-year review) or tenure and promotion review, those documents will suffice for the progress-toward-tenure review materials for that year. Probationary faculty members are encouraged to keep the submitted materials from year to year for the pre-tenure review and promotion and tenure evaluation.
The criteria in these Guidelines (described below) will be used for the evaluation. The Chairperson of the P&T Committee and the School Director will meet with the probationary faculty member to review the Committee's written assessment before the end of the academic year. Each probationary faculty will also be provided with this assessment in writing by February 1st via a letter written by the P&T Committee.
