What are the special rules that apply to Adjunct Faculty Members in the School of Meteorology?
An Adjunct Faculty Member can have a “silent” or “hidden” co-chair. When filling out the green form, put the Adjunct Faculty Member as Chair. The very next line should be for a Regular Faculty Member who has agreed to serve as co-chair, but nothing needs to be marked on the form. On the signature page of the thesis, the chair can be an Adjunct Faculty Member but, again, the very next line will be for the Regular Faculty Member who is co-chair — no explicit notation of that fact need be made. Lastly, on the memo that accompanies the application for appointment to the graduate faculty, a request should be made for appointment as “Special Member of the Graduate Faculty with Additional Privileges”. The additional privileges are that the appointment process need only be done once, no permission needs to be obtained to serve on additional committees during the term of the appointment.
