Calendar
The calendar deadlines have been established in order to distribute the anticipated workload over the course of the academic year and to ensure that reviews are completed prior to the July 1, 2003, effective date. Departments are encouraged to submit cases earlier than established deadlines, especially normal merits. The deadlines for merit cases for full Professors have been modified from last year and are due several weeks earlier.
Promotions: Cases for promotion to tenure and final appraisals have the earliest fall semester deadlines in order to finalize the appointment of the campus ad hoc committees and distribute materials prior to the holiday break. The dates for Spring reviews are also early to allow sufficient time for campus reviewers to complete the reviews before the end of the semester. Late submissions may delay final decisions until the fall.
Tenure Level Appointments: Appointments normally take 4-6 weeks to review at the campus level. When recruiting from other UC campuses or AAU institutions, please be cognizant of the deadlines by which offers can be made and which titles are involved. Although we can request that other institutions waive the deadlines, such requests have been denied in the past. In addition, the later in the academic year a case is submitted, the more difficult it is for the campus to appoint an ad hoc review committee and receive a report in a timely manner. Experience has shown that cases submitted at the end of the spring semester or during the summer are often not completed until the fall semester. We, therefore, encourage departments to establish timelines for their departmental searches that will allow completion of the search and submission of materials in February or March.
Intercampus Recruiting: Department chairs should familiarize themselves with the intercampus recruitment guidelines, especially the salary offer limits. All requests for information regarding salaries of those being recruited from other UC campuses or offers being made to Berkeley faculty should be routed through the Academic Personnel Office for formal confirmation with the other campus.
Late Submission of Cases: It is the department chairs' responsibility to ensure that cases are submitted by the established deadlines so that review can be completed prior to July 1. Periodically, there are reasons for late submittal of salary actions, i.e. illness, outside offers, etc., but these should be the exception not the rule. In all cases, extensions to the deadlines should be formally requested in advance. Late cases will continue to be given a low priority in the review process. In addition, Deans' Offices may return late cases for resubmittal the following year if there are no compelling reasons for the late submission or if prior approval has not been requested in a timely manner. Requests for retroactive action will not normally be considered.
Questions can be directed to the Academic Personnel Office (2-5626 or APpolicy@uclink) or to the cognizant dean.
