Proposal to Auburn University Faculty Senate
Non-Tenure Track Faculty Committee

We propose that….

1. The length of time allowed for promotion to associate clinical or research professor be extended from six years to an indefinite period.  This policy will be similar to the policy for individuals hired into the lecturer series.
    
2. Promotion to associate clinical or research professor or to clinical or research professor will be specific for each department, and criteria must be approved by the Provost’s Office.  Promotion decisions will be determined by the specific department, department head and the dean of the respective college or school. 
   
   
3. All other criteria for clinician and research series faculty will remain as defined in the Auburn University Guidelines for Establishing and Filling Positions in the Research and Clinician Title Series (two separate documents).
