\par A total of 43 files were reviewed in the 2001/2002 promotion/tenure process.  Promotion and/or tenure was awarded in 3
6 cases; the other 7 files were withdrawn prior to the Chancellor's review.  In 35 cases, the recommendation/ decision was "yes" at every level of review.   In only three cases was there a negative recommendation at the peer and/or dean level.  There were
 four cases in which the Provost's recommendation (3) and/or the Chancellor\rquote s decision (3) differed from the recommendation of the campus-wide committee.

out half (8) were from Assistant Professors applying at the beginning of their 2nd, 3rd or 4th years; half of them were successful. The rest of the applicants (all successful) were about evenly split between Assistant Professors who had received very favo

\par }\pard \li1080\widctlpar\adjustright {I believe the campus-wide committee did an excellent job in reviewing this set of files and making their recommen
dations.  Of course, there is room for professional differences of opinion on individual cases; and the committee certainly took its share of shots in this respect.  However, I think the committee made a long-term contribution to 51风流官网 by fully discussing t
h
e "early tenure" situation, developing an understanding on how they would approach these cases, and then consistently apply promotion/tenure criteria to the individual cases.  I commend them for their approach to these cases, for their rigorous reviews, a
nd for their conscientious attempts to distinguish between early tenure candidates who have met the tenure criteria and those who are simply making good progress toward tenure.

he most problematic part of our promotion/tenure process is the general lack of appropriate unit criteria at the department/ school/college level.  In the absence of such criteria, committees and administrators must rely on 51风流官网 criteria.  In practice, rev

\par {\listtext\pard\plain\f7 \hich\af7\dbch\af0\loch\f7 c.\tab}Peer committees need clear written rules on size, identities of individual members, eligibility for membership, and procedures.  Then they need to strictly follow their rules.

 their focus. Examples might be: analysis of IAS results to determine why "Dr. Smith" is a good teacher rather than statistical analysis of "average IAS score" for entry number three; analysis of multiple authorship and significance of "Dr. Smith's" key p
ublications rather than simply reporting the number of peer-reviewed articles that Smith has published.

The motion on this policy prepared by Faculty Affairs Committee last semester was defeated on the floor of the Senate.  In response Senate President Chukwu appointed a new committee to prepare a policy statement. When ready, the motion from the ad ho
c committee will be sent to the Senate through Faculty Affairs. J. Leguard suggested that UNAC should be consulted for their views on Classified Research. P. McRoy will notify Pete Pinney (chair of the new committee) about UNAC concerns.

The purpose of this is to revise the order of business for Senate and Administrative committee meetings. P. McRoy proposed this item last year to increase the dialogue in Senate meetings and to permit introduction of new business from
 the floor. Such actions occurred in the last meeting of the Senate last semester so it is possible that no revision is needed. The Administration Committee should clarify the order and procedures for Senate business.

\par Considering the rapid development of on-line graduate courses, including the development of degre
es that are offered on-line the GAAC saw the need to implement some quality control into the process.  On-line courses currently do not require a submission of a formal request, nor do student course evaluations appear to take into account the specific st
rengths and weaknesses of on-line delivery.  These issues should be followed up in the coming semesters and along with inquiry to Curricular Affairs regarding efforts there to implement a joint CAC-GAAC working group on "Technology Enhanced Education."

\par What role if any should the GAAC play in the development of policies related to Joint/Collaborative Ph.D. degrees within the UA system?   This follows from some of the business addressed by the GAAC last
 year which, although not directly related to the Joint/Collaborative Ph.D., relates to the complexities and challenges associated with the development of new graduate degree programs even within 51风流官网.

\par }\pard \widctlpar\adjustright {
\par There are many issues surrounding the
 stacking of 400/600 level courses.  There is currently no mechanism in place to check the balance other than at the course approval stage, there is no evaluation of the extent to which degree programs rely on stacked courses nor any consensus on what pro
p
ortion of stacked courses is appropriate for a degree, it is not clear whether graduate students can enroll at the undergraduate level and visa versa, nor is there recognition in faculty workload of the extra effort required to prepare and teach stacked c
ourses.  In the last meeting of GAAC for Spring 2002, the committee considered forwarding a discussion item to the Senate on limiting the number of stacked courses than are part of a degree program\rquote 
s required courses or courses counting towards a degree.  Committee members M. Murray and C. Read were asked to develop a draft policy on stacking and to identify and enumerate problems associated with stacking.  M. Murray proposed to circulate this }{
\ul very rough}{ draft to the new GAAC in order to get the discussion on this issue moving forward.

\par 
\par 
\par Core Review Committee Report
\par 
\par Meeting of 11 September, 2002, 1-2 pm
\par 
\par Present:  Douglas Schamel (Chair), Jin Brown, Mary Goodwin, Paul McCarthy, Rainer Newberry, John Heaton, Sue McHenry (ex-officio), Frank Williams (guest)
\par 
\par Absent: D.A. Bartlett, Jill Faudree (both had courses to teach), student member (vacant)
\par 
\par Frank Williams presented ideas regarding the potential addition of a "technology" course to the Core requirements.  We discussed the pros and c
ons of this idea for about 30 minutes, then asked for several members to examine the desirability and feasibility of implementing such a course or courses.  Volunteers for this sub-committee included Jin Brown, Mary Goodwin, Paul McCarthy; Frank Williams 
a
greed to work with this committee.  Ideas discussed included 1) adding material (and one credit) to the LS 101X course, and 2) imbedding technology into upper-division courses (as currently done with "O" and "W" courses).  Committee members recognized tha
t some degree programs are tight for credits.
\par 
\par Schamel (in his role as Chair) debriefed members on Core activity over the summer.  This included a number of petitions, the receipt of assessments of Core courses, and the current attempt to "tidy up" loose en
ds with syllabus and catalog descriptions of "O" and "W" courses.  To this end, syllabi of "O" and "W" courses offered this fall will be collected and examined for appropriate wording.  This will be done by deans and directors before passing syllabi to th
e Core Review Committee.  Courses with syllabi lacking essential details will be removed from the Core beginning with the 2003-04 academic year.
\par 
\par The desirability of allowing Core courses to be counted as part of major or minor requirements was brought forw
ard last academic year.  This is clearly NOT allowed with current wording of the Core document.  The Core Review Committee will investigate this matter this academic year.  Rainer Newberry and John Heaton have currently volunteered to investigate this iss
ue; they will consult with Gayle Gregory (Graduation Office).
\par 
\par Jin Brown moved that Douglas Schamel continue as committee chair.  This was seconded; all members present voted "yes".  Schamel agreed to continue as Chair.
\par 
\par The next meeting will be Wednesday, 16 October, 9:15 \endash  10:15.  The meeting room will be announced later.
