Tenure & Promotion Procedures- Appropriate Acedemic Area Advisory Committee
[10] Appropriate Academic Area Advisory Committee
In most cases, it is obvious which Academic Area Advisory Committee should review a file. Sometimes, however, the choice of committee is not apparent from the academic department ( e.g., an Anthropology case might go to the Biological Sciences committee or to the Social Sciences committee). Even where these options are not explicitly listed in AR II-1.0-1, Section XII.E, the details of a candidate's work may make an Academic Area Advisory Committee other than the usual one for the department most appropriate. In any case, where a non-routine choice of an Academic Area Advisory Committee is desired, it is necessary to obtain the written agreement of the candidate to send his or her file to that committee and to inform the Provost or Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs of this choice when you submit the dossier.
