What are the most significant differences between reappointment files and tenure and promotion files?
The yearly reappointment file is just that, a yearly focused file. Check with your departmental handbook and your chairperson to see what is to be included in these files. On occasion a department will ask for accumulative files, the second year added to the first and so on. Usually, each file focuses on one year and may have the previous year’s works as context, citing key works that lead to work in the year at hand, but most of the previous work is not included in the reappointment file. Q. Are tenure & promotion always considered together, or can they be granted separately? This again, is specific to departments, but tenure and promotion are viewed as separate processes even thought they can be applied for in the same year. In some disciplines or departments, the two are considered to work together: “If you are tenurable, you must be promotable.” In other departments, they are not considered as needing to go together. In general, Tenure is a decision that your work is of high enough
