5. In your judgment, what have you achieved during the past academic year in scholarly ability
and/or in exceptional university and community service above and beyond normal
expectations to justify the three credits of reassigned time from teaching given to full-time,
tenured or tenure-track faculty? In summary, the policy, approved by Vice President for
Academic Affairs Jerome Supple in 1982, states that the normal load for a full-time tenured or
tenure-track faculty member is 12-credit hours per semester, with three-credit hours of
reassigned time granted for scholarship, or creative activity, or exceptional university or
community service. In response to this question, you need not repeat the material listed in
response to questions 2 and 3, but rather explain how the quantity and quality of this work, and
other activities, if relevant, justify three credits of released course time per semester.
6. In your judgment, what have you completed during the past year that is especially meritorious
and beyond the standard of annual performance expectations? The standard performance
expectations are contained in Article IV – Criteria for Performance Reviews in the college’s
Performance Reviews of Academic Employees Agreement.
