Whereas Faculty Associates and Lecturers serve an important function for the University, specializing in teaching and service, serving larger teaching loads than tenure track and tenured faculty;
Whereas those promoted to the rank of Senior Faculty Associate have served for a minimum of 10 years and gone through two formal rank and tenure processes;
Whereas Faculty Associate salaries lag behind those of other faculty because they were not adjusted adequately or at all in the last two salary studies;
In order to achieve compensation parity with ranked faculty in their disciplines, be it resolved that those promoted to and those currently holding Senior Faculty Associate or Senior Lecturer positions should receive promotion raises based on the same formulae as other faculty promoted to Associate Professor in their colleges.
