Call for Faculty Volunteers: Ad Hoc Appt. Advisory Committee, Nominations Due Sept. 25

It is the time of year when the various segments of the college faculty elect their members as representatives on the  Ad Hoc Appointment Advisory Committee.

This committee provides information and advice for the president’s consideration for all faculty members eligible for three- and five-year appointments.

We are seeking three teaching faculty members and one professional faculty member (librarians or counselors) to serve. To be considered, you must first nominate yourself for election by your peers.  Nominations are open until 11:59 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 25, and voting will take place from Oct. 2 through 11:59 p.m. on Oct. 9 at 11:59 p.m.

The work of the committee will occur primarily between November 15, 2023 and January 10, 2024 but may extend to January 31, 2024. The College is on winter break from Dec. 25, 2023 through Jan. 2, 2024, during which time the committee would not meet.  

To volunteer for this committee, you should be a full-time teaching or professional faculty:

• who is in a three- or five-year appointment AND
• who is NOT currently under review for a three- or five-year appointment AND
• who is willing to commit to the work of the committee between November 1 and January 31.

This is a very hard-working committee. According to VCCS policy, every faculty member who is eligible for a three- or five-year appointment must have their information reviewed by this committee after evaluation by the supervising dean.

For details on the process and the VCCS policy, please review section 3.4.0.4 of the VCCS Policy Manual.

To volunteer, please complete the self-nomination form located here.
