Tenure and Promotion – Step 2
Unit Tenure or Promotion Committee Completes Evaluation and Recommendation Memo
In this guidance you will learn how to:
- Access the case
- Review the PAD
- Upload the Cumulative Evaluation
- Complete the Recommendation
- Share the Cumulative Evaluation and Receive the Candidate Response
- Send the case forward to the Unit Administrator
When the unit administrator completes Step 1 of the case it will be forwarded to Step 2 and the Unit Tenure or Promotion Committee will receive an email.
1. Access the Case

2. Review the PAD


3. Upload the Cumulative Evaluation
Committee chairs should navigate to the “Case Details” tab to complete the required documents. A number will appear next to the “Case Details” tab that indicates how many tasks require completion.
Note – If a case is routed to you and you do not see a number next to “Case Details” then you are a committee member. Only committee chairs have the ability to submit documents and forms and move the case forward. At the bottom of the Case Details screen you can also see a list of members and chairs (designated as committee managers).



4. Complete the Recommendation


5. Share the Cumulative Evaluation and Receive the Candidate Response


After clicking “Share, and “With Candidate,” a new screen will appear with the evaluation attached at the bottom.
Enter a subject line and message to the candidate.
Then, click the checkbox next to “Enable” file response.
Message Reason = Candidate Response to Committee Evaluation
Deadline = Today + 7 Working Days
Section for Response = Candidate Responses

After the candidate responds to the evaluation, the committee chair will receive an email notification that a response was received.
The response can be viewed in the “Read Case” window or at the bottom of the “Case Materials” page under the “Candidate Response” section.
If the candidate response is received outside of Faculty180, then the response can be uploaded to the “Candidate Responses” section on the “Case Materials” tab.
When the candidate response has been received or uploaded, the committee chair will fill out the “Indicator of Candidate Response” forms on the “Case Details” tab.



6. Send the case forward to the Unit Administrator


The committee’s evaluation and recommendation must be submitted by the 4th Tuesday in October.
Faculty180 does not automatically notify candidates when a recommendation is recorded. Please notify the candidate, committee chair, and the unit administrator (if applicable) as required by the Faculty Manual. This notification must be sent outside of Faculty180.
