Voting Procedures for Academic Personnel Actions

Departments' current voting procedures are available in the Voting Procedures Box folder.

Department voting procedures for all personnel actions must comply with Senate Bylaw 55. (Voting and peer group plans for Academic Federation members have separate guidelines and are managed by Academic Affairs.)

To propose revisions to voting procedures for the Committee on Academic Personnel – Oversight's (CAP) review and approval, departments should consult UCD APM 220 Exhibit A and submit those procedures in writing to their dean, who will then forward the proposed revisions to the CAP chair and analyst. CAP will review proposed revisions and communicate its decisions to the college/school dean. Revised voting procedures will be published within two weeks of the date of CAP's approval letter.

Please direct questions about the voting procedures process to the CAP analyst.
