Sociology Promotions & Tenure

The Faculty Collective Agreement requires that in evaluating a faculty member's performance for promotion and tenure purposes, a public solicitation for letters must occur.

Shown below are the faculty members being considered for Promotion and Tenure. Anyone wishing to make a written submission can do so until their respective file is closed. The anticipated closing date for each candidate has been inserted to the right of his or her name. Those engaged in the review of the Promotion and Tenure File may wish to refrain from providing a letter of support in order to avoid a perception of bias.

Unless you specifically indicate in your submission that your identity can be known to the candidate, your identity will be kept confidential from the candidate. The contents of your letter will be revealed to the candidate by including in his or her Promotion and Tenure File, a copy of your letter with all identification removed. If you wish your identity to remain confidential, please phrase your letter such that your identity is not revealed by content. You should be aware that your letter in its entirety will be seen by the Promotion and Tenure Committee reviewing this case.

Clicking on the name of the candidate will open the promotion and tenure solicitation letter with the address your paper copy submission should be sent to. Emails cannot be accepted.
