University Employee Policy Manual & Handbook

Policies for Faculty Isbell Scholars Since faculty members serving as Isbell Scholars are officially retired and volunteering services, they do not have voting privileges within the department, nor do they serve on university committees. They do not participate in activities such as tenure and promotion reviews, curriculum decisions, or other departmental matters that involve voting actions. Typically, faculty members are expected to teach a full load of classes and assist where needed with advisement and other instructional duties. In all cases, teaching assignments and duties rest with the department chair in consultation, as needed with the departmental faculty and/or college dean. Teaching assignments are for the fall and spring semesters only. In rare and unusual cases, requests for exceptions to teach in the summer may be considered but must be approved by the department chair, college dean, and Provost. It is strongly recommended that a faculty member desiring Isbell Scholar status meet with the department chair at the beginning of the process to clarify job responsibilities.
