Evaluation of Full-Time Faculty Members
- Each faculty member at TWU is evaluated annually. The annual review of
faculty performance is designed to assess the faculty member's contributions to
and competencies in teaching, service, and research. Its purposes are to 1)
provide a basis for professional growth and development, 2) recognize past
professional performance and provide feedback to faculty who demonstrate a need
for improvement, and 3) provide a structure for measuring progress
systematically that will serve as basis for tenure and promotion decisions. (See
Appendix IX, Framework For Annual Faculty Performance Review.)
-
Evaluation of Faculty on Voluntary Modification of Employment
- Faculty on voluntary modification of employment who wish to be considered
for salary increases should advise their department chairs of their intentions
to be reviewed and considered for raises during the time scheduled for faculty
evaluations. All recommendations for salary increases must be based on
evaluation of performance. The department chairs and deans will advise the
Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs of their recommendations.
Individual faculty members must assess the impact of salary increases on
retirement and other benefits.
-
Evaluation of Administrators
- All full-time regular faculty eligible to vote in Faculty Senate elections
at TWU are provided an opportunity each academic year to assess the performance
of their immediate academic supervisor and other University officers by
anonymously completing a questionnaire about the performance of each
administrator. The purpose of the annual assessments is to enhance and
facilitate the efforts of faculty and administrators to accomplish department,
college, center, and University goals. In addition, providing information to
administrators about how faculty members perceive their performance may promote
their personal, professional, and administrative growth and development.
The process is conducted by the Faculty Senate and is overseen and monitored by
the Administrator Evaluation Committee of the Faculty Senate. Faculty members
who choose to participate in any performance review of an administrator will do
so as professionals, having the welfare of the University in mind when they
respond to the questions. Confidentiality, anonymity, and security are
emphasized during this process.
