Emeritus Status
Faculty nominated for emeritus status shall be selected
based on the following criteria: outstanding service to the University as
teacher, researcher, builder; recognition by colleagues in their academic
discipline in and beyond the University for contributions to scholarship;
teaching career at TWU of at least 10 years; record of dedication and
loyal service to the University and its purpose.
Each March, the Associate Provost shall contact the leader
of each academic component, requesting nominations for Emeritus faculty
from among the faculty retiring that year (this shall include all faculty
electing that year for the modified retirement plan). Nominations must be
accompanied by three letters of support and a copy of the candidate’s
Curriculum Vitae. All candidates shall be reviewed by the Associate
Provost and the Provost.
A faculty member granted emeritus status shall have the
title of Professor Emeritus/Emerita. Emeritus faculty may receive a new
TWU Identification Card, noting their Emeritus status.
