Division Peer Evaluation Committees

Updated 2/12/2025

Three to five tenured faculty members (number depends on size of division and number of evaluations, diversity among group) are recommended by division faculty and approved by the Division Dean/Responsible Administrator; the Evaluation Committee will be reasonably representative of academic disciplines in the division. The composition of the group will reflect consideration of gender and ethnic diversity. The Committee will select a faculty member as chair; she or he will be responsible for scheduling and conducting meetings and communicating with others in the process. All tenured full-time faculty members are encouraged to participate in the evaluation of their colleagues. (Contract, Appendix G)
