Committee Bylaws

(1) This committee is concerned with the tenure rights of faculty. It functions according to the principles stated in the Academic Tenure Regulations adopted by the University of Missouri Board of Curators. It may also make recommendations for policy changes through the Faculty Senate to the Board of Curators. It also serves as the judicial hearing committee for cases of research dishonesty and makes recommendations of Dismissal for Cause (section 310.060 of The Curators of the University of Missouri Collected Rules and Regulations) to the Provost.

(2) This committee consists of one (1) faculty member from each academic department whose faculty is eligible for tenure. The faculty of each academic department shall, during the second semester of each academic year, elect one of its eligible faculty members to membership on the TPC to serve for the following academic year, and also elect an alternate faculty member who shall serve whenever the regular committee member is unable to serve.

(3) Faculty members shall be elected from the eligible Professors on continuous appointment. If there are no eligible Professors within a department, then faculty members shall be elected from the eligible Associate Professors. Vice Provosts, department chairs, and other persons who devote 49% or more of their time to administrative duties shall not be eligible for membership on the TPC.
