Academic Ranks. As noted in Article II, Section 1.A., of this Agreement, FTNTT Faculty members hold appointment at one (1) of the following six (6) academic ranks: Lecturer, Associate Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor. The academic ranks of Lecturer, Associate Lecturer and Senior Lecturer are reserved for FTNTT Faculty members who have not earned a terminal degree in their discipline, but whose professional experience and demonstrated performance warrant these ranks. The academic ranks of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Professor are reserved for FTNTT Faculty members who have earned the terminal degree in their discipline and whose professional experience and demonstrated performance warrant these ranks. A. Determination of academic rank is a function of the combination of earned academic credentials and demonstrable experience and achievement appropriate to the level of appointment. Normally, initial appointment as a FTNTT Faculty member will be at the rank of Lecturer unless the appointee possesses the doctoral degree or, in some instances, the highest available earned advanced degree ("terminal degree") appropriate to the academic discipline. In the latter instance, the expectation is that the FTNTT Faculty member will be appointed at the rank of Assistant Professor. B. When the combination of academic credential and demonstrated appropriate experience and professional contribution would warrant appointment within the academic unit at the rank of Associate Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, Associate Professor or Professor, the University, in its sole discretion, may appoint new FTNTT Faculty members at those ranks. C. FTNTT Faculty members may request reconsideration of the rank of appointment with each annual renewal of appointment if he/she believes that he/she was hired at an inappropriate rank. To request such a reconsideration of rank, a FTNTT Faculty member should submit a written request to the unit administrator providing a rationale for reconsideration of rank citing earned academic credentials and appropriate professional experience and contributions that would warrant such reconsideration. A change in rank which results from a reconsideration of rank has no impact on salary other than the salary minima, if applicable, as established in Article XI of this Agreement. D. A FTNTT Faculty member who receives the doctoral or established appropriate terminal degree that would warrant initial appointment at the ...
