Community and Professional Service. This shall be activities that are grounded in a faculty Member's special field of knowledge, other contributions to the faculty Member's profession (as provided in Article 33), performance in an extra-academic field, and appropriate contributions to the community at large. These activities are expected for probationary-tenure-track and tenured faculty Members as well as limited term faculty Members in the bargaining unit as specified in Article 35 and who have an employment contract of 8 months or longer. Part-time and limited term faculty Members in the bargaining unit are primarily expected to concentrate on teaching. 18.1.1 Accountability for one’s professional activities can be expressed in many ways. However, better understanding of professional activities is achieved through a minimum of common denominators in the reporting mechanisms. A “Teaching Assignment and Faculty Professional Activities Report” (Appendix C) is to be used as a template which outlines minimum reporting requirements for Faculty Members. This report is to be completed annually with a copy submitted electronically to the ▇▇▇▇’▇ Office. The ▇▇▇▇’▇ Office will forward the final electronic copy to Human Resources with a copy to the Member to be included in the Member’s personnel file. The Teaching Assignment and Faculty Professional Activities Report is meant to help make the ▇▇▇▇ become aware of the activities the faculty member is involved in and promote positive discussion related to career development. Such report will not be used in a disciplinary manner.
