Each campus has established formal procedures for the initiation, review, and approval of recommendations for academic promotion. Consideration is given to the criteria that seem to be most appropriate to the evaluation of the varied combinations of contributions of individual faculty members — including teaching, research or other scholarly activities, artistic creation, professional and public service, student and administrative services. At Chicago Circle and at UrbanaChampaign campuswide committees review departmental and college recommendations; at the Medical Center campus a special committee in each college reviews the recommendations of its departments. The General University promotions are reviewed by a committee of the unit involved and by the Vice President for Academic Affairs. The Vice President for Academic Affairs recommends approval of the recommendations as submitted. I concur.

On motion of Mr. Livingston, these recommendations were approved.
