  Points of Emphasis:

• DSI review is a snapshot of the period under consideration only and is not related to reappointment, tenure, or promotion. Those are separate processes and will have different folder preparation guidelines.
• The folder to send forward should be relatively slender and focus on evaluative statements, not raw material. The timeline for review beyond the department is very compressed and raw material is not necessary if the candidate, chair and department committee have done their job properly. The support folder should be available in the department office if requested by Subdivision, Dean, Provost or President.
• The Case Presentation Folder should be indexed back to the Supporting Source Material Folder in order to rapidly locate the material in question.
• The Case Presentation Folder and letters of support that are added to that folder should all follow the template based on the Criteria for Personal Decisions in the Policies of the Board of Trustees. This template is available electronically here.
• Letters of support from the department chair and the department review committee should begin with a brief summary evaluation and then provide evaluative statements within the criteriaa indicating what was particularly illustrative of meritorious activity.
