IV.C   Divisional Committees on Appointments and Promotions

From time to time during the year, each divisional advisory committee is joined by the Deans of Yale College and the Graduate School and one or two tenured faculty members from another division and meets as the Tenure Appointments and Promotions Committee for that division. These committees review all appointments and promotions to the ranks of professor and associate professor with tenure. The Tenure Appointments and Promotions Committees are chaired by the Dean of Yale College and the Dean of the Graduate School as suits their disciplinary expertise and academic department responsibilities.

In special cases where the proposed candidate's field does not fall clearly within the general area represented by a single divisional committee, the Provost may augment a divisional Tenure Appointments and Promotions Committee by two or three additional voting members from other divisions, chosen for the expert advice and judgment they can bring to bear on the proposed appointment.
