The tenure track process normally involves an initial term contract appointment of a faculty member for a period of three years. For a faculty member appointed at a junior rank (not higher than Assistant Professor) it will be followed by a second term contract appointment for an additional period of three years. A tenure decision must be made for such a faculty member in the third year of the second term contract appointment. Faculty members initially appointed at a junior rank will thus normally serve six years, before a final tenure decision is made. The services of a faculty member having tenure shall be terminated only for adequate cause, except at the normal retirement age or under extraordinary circumstances discussed in these statutes.
