D.6 Eligibility to Serve as Department Chair for a Promotion Review
Individuals serving as department chair for a candidate’s promotion review must be free from conflicts of interest (Section D.5) and eligible to vote on the promotion case (Section A.4).
In situations in which a department chair is ineligible to serve, the dean in consultation with the Faculty Affairs team in the Provost’s Office will designate a faculty member to serve as the department chair designee for the candidate’s review.
The department chair designee is authorized to act in the place of the department chair with respect to the actions authorized by these Guidelines and should be designated before the start of the promotion review process or immediately after the confirmation of an actual or potential conflict of interest.
