Faculty Handbook III.C.2.f
Professional Activities Outside the University
i. Although a specific work week is not defined for faculty members with full-time appointments, it is expected that such appointments constitute a full-time obligation and that, with the exceptions explicitly permitted by university policies on consulting and other related professional activities, full-time faculty will not engage in other employment during the academic year. The external activities of faculty members must be consistent with university policies, including its policies on conflicts of interest
ii. Faculty members must obtain the approval of the Dean prior to undertaking any significant external activity. This includes all commitments of an ongoing nature, as well as any one-time commitment involving an extended absence from the university. Faculty will consult with their department chair to determine whether an outside commitment is exempt from approval by the Dean. Department chairs are expected to consult with the Dean when in doubt about such activity.
iii. Outside employment requires written approval of the Provost.
iv. No tenured member of the faculty may hold tenure at another institution simultaneously
v. Faculty who hold part-time appointments may have outside obligations and commitments. Part-time faculty are expected to evaluate and arrange their external commitments in order to avoid compromising their ability to carry out their obligations to the university.
vi. All faculty will file an annual disclosure form with the university detailing all significant external activities during the previous year, including any activities that may be ongoing.
