TACT Meet Renews
Tenure Policy Interest
In connection with the te-
nure policy discussion at
the meeting of the Texas
Association of College
Teachers in Austin this
past fall, it has been re-
discovered that Lamar
Tech has» and has had since
the spring of 1954, a ten-
ure policy similar to one
of those recommended for
adoption by TACT.
The Lamar Tech Board
of Regents adopted, with
the recommendation of the
president, the follow ing
statement:
"While under state law
faculty members cannot be
employed for extended
periods, the Board of Re-
gents of Lamar State Col-
lege of Technology consi-
ders it important that fa-
culty members feel se-
cure in their positions.
"When the president
reaches a decision to make
a recommendation to the
Board of Regents which
will affect adversely the
employment status of a fa-
culty member he will no-
tify the person concerned
in writing setting forth his
reasons for the recom-
mendation . Such notice
will be given one semes-
ter in advance when prac-
ticable .
"Any faculty member may
appeal from a recommen-
dation of the president to
the Board of Regents. The
manner in which such an
appeal is heard will be un-
der the control of the
Board. The president will
be present at any hearing
on an appeal.
"Any faculty member who
has entered on his fourth
year of employment may
ask for a hearing by a
committee of seven faculty
members to be selected as
the faculty may decide.
The committee shall file a
report of its deliberations
with the secretary of the
Board of Regents at least
10 days before the first
meeting of the Board which
shall occur more than 30
days after the committee
receives a request for a
hearing. If a faculty mem-
ber requests it, a repre-
sentative of the committee
may appear at the time of
the hearing of the Board on
the appeal and make such
statement as he wishes.
"There shall be no appea 1
from the decision of the
Board of Regents.
"A faculty member for-
feits his right to a hearing
unless he files a written
request for it with the sec-
retary of the Board of Re-
gents within 10 days after
he is notified by the presi-
dent."
