Role and Operating ProtocolCollege and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee

The Dean of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and the Directors of Texas A&M AgriLife Research and the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service use the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee to review all requests for promotion/tenure from departments and off-campus research units. The committee reviews all promotion and tenure recommendations and ensures equitable review and evaluation of on- and off-campus promotion candidates, relative to the position description and job expectation for each candidate and the evaluation criteria in teaching, research, service and extension published by the college and agencies guidelines.

The College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee will be comprised of 16 senior faculty members at the rank of Professor appointed by the Vice Chancellor, in consultation with the Dean, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences; Director, Texas A&M AgriLife Research; and Director, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service. The makeup of the committee will reflect the composition of the faculty within the College, Texas A&M AgriLife Research, and the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, and will be reviewed every three years to ensure it continues to represent the demographics of the faculty. Committee members shall serve two-year terms, with approximately one-half of the committee rotating each year. As with the departmental peer review committees, all members of the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee may vote on promotion and tenure decisions; however, the vote of the tenured faculty on tenure decisions is the vote of record and must be recorded separately for votes on tenure-track or tenured faculty candidates. The results of the committee’s anonymous vote and the overall assessment of the committee relative to each faculty member under consideration shall be explained by the Chair of the Committee in a committee report to the Dean and Vice Chancellor.

The College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee shall review all promotion and tenure Dossiers in accordance with the following:

1. Review completeness of promotion/tenure candidate’s file. The committee may request additional information, if necessary, particularly if the candidate’s department or unit is not represented on the committee.

2. Requests for additional information:a. All requests will be made by the Chair directly to the Associate Dean and administrative staff

managing the tenure and promotion process.b. The Chair and committee members cannot directly approach the candidate, Department Head,

Resident Director, departmental faculty, the departmental tenure and promotion committee, or external letter writers.

3. Review of Dossiers: Each member of the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee will review the complete Dossier of each candidate. a. The Committee Chair may appoint sub-committees to carefully review selected Dossiers and

prepare a draft report to be presented to the committee of the whole. The sub-committee will re-draft the report to reflect the discussion and opinions of the committee of the whole.

b. The final report on each candidate will be submitted to the Chair, and the Chair will sign the final report to verify that the vote and comments reflect the opinions of the committee of the whole.

c. The Committee should focus on nominations of a marginal nature. Specifically:1. If the departmental peer review committee and the Head strongly recommend a decision and

the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee does not concur, then the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee may request further input prior to a final recommendation. Detailed comments should accompany all College and Texas A&M

4

AgriLife Peer Review Committee recommendations which are in opposition to the recommendations of the departmental peer review committee or administration.

2. If the departmental peer review committee and the Head are in direct conflict, the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee should carefully review the entire file, including external letters, to determine the merits of the file. If necessary, the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee may invite the appropriate Department Head (and respective Resident Director, as appropriate) and/or the chair of the departmental peer review committee to the meeting to gain further information.

4. Voting:a. Voting will be conducted in such a way that the individual votes are anonymous and are known

only to the person verifying and recording the votes, usually the Chair or the administrative staff assisting with the tenure and promotion process.

b. The votes of the committee will be reported by: a) tenured TAMU members, b) non-tenured AgriLife Extension, c) non-tenured AgriLife Research members, and d) total vote.For decisions on tenure-track candidates (promotion from Assistant Professor to Associate Professor, tenure only decisions, and tenure upon hire ) or tenured candidates (promotion from Associate Professor to Professor), only the vote of the tenured College members are reported on the Dossier cover sheet, but a complete tally of votes should be reported in the Committee report.

c. Abstain, Absent and Recuse Votes: Abstain and absent votes are discouraged. A committee member may recuse themselves from the vote if they feel that have a justifiable reason.Abstain vote = To refrain from something by one’s own choice. May have inadequate

information or expertise to make an informed decision, did not read the dossier, did not take part in discussion, etc.

Recuse vote = To disqualify from participation in a decision on grounds such as prejudice, personal involvement or conflict of interest. Person should not take part in discussion; and probably should leave the room. For example, a spouse.

d. For decisions on tenured or tenure track faculty, each voting member can vote only once. Therefore, the voting member of the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee should abstain from the departmental vote so they can register a vote on the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee. If they do chose to vote at the departmental level, then they should abstain from the Peer Review Committee vote.

e. In order to be eligible to vote, University policy dictates that each committee member reads the material in the Dossier. Subcommittees may review selected Dossiers in detail and prepare a draft report or recommendation to the committee of the whole, but this does not excuse each committee member from personally reviewing the Dossier information.

5. The Committee Report: The report must contain the vote of committee members along with written explanation and justification. The report should follow all the instructions contained in the University policy on Dossier guidelines. See the Committee Report Format for detailed instructions.

6. Report to Dean/Directors: The Chair of the College and Texas A&M AgriLife Peer Review Committee will be responsible for transmitting written results of the committee’s deliberations to the Dean and Directors, or the Associate Dean/Director assigned to receive the report.

7. Improve the Process: At the conclusion of each year’s process, the committee is encouraged to make recommendations regarding changes that could improve the process.

Rubrics

Why use a Rubric?

It is important to develop a consistent and systematic approach to your evaluation of the promotion and tenure Dossiers. One way to do this is to develop and use a scoring rubric.

Use of a rubric promotes a holistic approach to the decision making process and fosters consistency of evaluation, while still preserving the value of those core attributes necessary for promotion and tenure.

Advantages of using a Rubric Allows one to base their decision on the sum of a full range of criteria as opposed to a

few key criteria. Allows consistency in evaluation of multiple packets. Development of your own evaluation rubric allows you to reflect upon which metrics,

characteristics and/or accomplishments you place the greatest emphasis.All of this leads to a fair, consistent and defendable decision.

Develop your own rubric Consider developing your own rubric. The following are examples of several rubrics that others have developed.
