To maintain continuity in Auburn’s academic work, certain existing academic committees will continue their responsibilities for the time being. Relevant committee chairs have been informed and asked to notify members accordingly. As the transition proceeds, the name, composition, structure, scope, function, and other aspects of these particular committees will be reviewed and revised as needed to align with Board policy and the University’s new academic advisory framework.
Faculty Grievance
The committee shall evaluate grievances filed by faculty members and decide whether grievances should proceed to a hearing. Results of the hearing will be forwarded to the President as recommendations for redress.
Membership
The Faculty Grievance Committee shall be composed of: 15 faculty members, one elected member from each academic college, one elected member from the libraries, one elected member from the non-tenure track faculty members of the Cooperative Extension Service who are not included in academic departments, and one elected member from the non-tenure track faculty in University Extension who are not included in academic departments.
Restrictions:
The chair shall be elected from within the Grievance Committee and shall serve one year as chair-elect before assuming duties of the chair.
No member shall serve more than two consecutive three-year terms.
