Tenure File Clause Samples

The Tenure File clause defines the requirements and procedures for compiling and submitting a dossier of materials that document a faculty member’s qualifications for tenure review. Typically, this clause outlines what documents must be included—such as teaching evaluations, research publications, and service records—and sets deadlines and formatting standards for submission. Its core function is to ensure that the tenure review process is based on a comprehensive, standardized, and well-documented record, thereby promoting fairness and transparency in tenure decisions.
Tenure File. No later than October 15 (see Timetable in 17.§10 for specific date), all faculty who are scheduled for a tenure review shall submit their tenure files to their department chair. At a minimum, the tenure file must contain those materials specified by the office of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The tenure file of the candidate, with collateral documentation, shall be held in the office of the ▇▇▇▇ until the final recommendations are submitted by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to the Board of Trustees, and at that time it shall be returned to the candidate. Collateral documentation refers to the books, reprints, artistic work, syllabi, and other products of performance that usually accompany applications.
