Annual Review Guidelines & Faculty Activity Report1. IntroductionIn accordance with the Agreement Between the University of Vermont and United Academics (AAUP/AFT) (referred to as the Agreement hereafter), the annual faculty review will focus on the faculty member's performance during the academic year in which the review takes place but will also take into account the faculty member's performance during the preceding two years. In late January each year, each faculty member is requested to complete the Annual Faculty Activity Report form (see Appendix A below) by February 15. The faculty may choose to include any additional relevant information. In April each year, the Chair will meet with the faculty member to discuss the faculty member's performance and the following academic year's workload plan. Before or at this meeting, the faculty member can add any written information to the faculty member's Annual Faculty Activity Report. The Chair will provide a written evaluation for the faculty member at or after the meeting.
Categories for assessment are given below. Professor, Associate Professor and Assistant Professor
Graduate Student Advising Research and Scholarship Service
Classroom Teaching and Advising Service
Assistant Professor
