Faculty Hiring Prioritization Committee

The purpose of the Faculty Prioritization Committee is to recommend to the president, through the faculty hiring prioritization process, which full-time faculty positions the college should prioritize for hire.

The Faculty Hiring Prioritization Committee reports the prioritized faculty list to the Planning and Budget Committee and the President’s Advisory Cabinet.

• Vice President of Instruction
• Vice President of Student Services
• Deans (11)*
• Director of Institutional Research and Planning
• Academic Senate Executive Committee (President, Past President/President Elect, Secretary, Treasurer, Curriculum Chair, and IDEAA Ombuds) (6)**
• Accreditation Faculty Chair**
• Distance Education Faculty Coordinator**
• IPLOR Committee Chair (formerly IPRC Chair)**
• Student Learning Outcomes Coordinator**

*Each division has one dean representative who submits rankings. If a dean oversees multiple divisions, the dean can designate a representative(s) to act on their behalf to score and vote for one of the divisions. If a division does not have a dean, the division may designate a representative to act on their behalf.

**If a faculty member holds multiple roles (e.g., IPLOR Committee Chair and Academic Senate Past President), the Academic Senate will appoint a representative to rank on their behalf so that each person’s scoring will only count once.
