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.
Non-Tenure Track Faculty
The committee will consider the special concerns of non-tenure track faculty and may propose polices relating to the status, function, and rights of non-tenure faculty within the university. Each fall the committee chair will inform all non-tenure track faculty of the committee's existence and purpose.
Membership
The Non-Tenure Track Faculty Committee shall be composed of: three tenured faculty members, three instructers, three other non-tenure track faculty members, two department heads/chairs, and one representative of the central administration.
Restrictions:
Faculty members shall serve three-year staggered terms.
