The S&T Annual Evaluation Chair Review of Faculty Form is used to evaluate faculty performance. According to CRR 310.015 Procedures for Review of Faculty Performance, ratings must be recorded as either "Satisfactory" or "Unsatisfactory." If your department's ratings differ from this, please use the comment boxes on this form to explain. If any unsatisfactory ratings are recorded in any area, a face-to-face meeting with the faculty member must occur. To comply with policy, you must select either "Satisfactory" or "Unsatisfactory" for each activity included in the faculty member's assigned workload, and select "Not Applicable" for any area not within the assigned workload. If your department/unit has modified this rating system, please mark "Satisfactory" or "Unsatisfactory", then place the modified rating in the Ratings Comments box with an explanation of your ratings system.  If a developmental plan has been finalized, please attach it to this form. 

To attach any additional documentation, scroll to the bottom of this form below the signature box and upload your files one at a time. Save the form when you are done to return to the "Listing of Faculty Being Evaluated" page.
