Keep in mind the font size (important for accessibility, visibility, videotaping, and online production)
Coordinated colors
Pay particular attention to the graphs, charts, and text boxes.
Consider that attendees will print in black and white or grayscale. Run a test print to make sure your colors work when printed in pure black and white and grayscale.
Graphics, tables, and graphs
Keep it simple: If possible, use consistent, non-distracting styles and colors.
Label all graphs and tables.

2. General Information for Tenure
Guidelines for Tenure and Promotion are set forth by the UHCC. The Tenure process is set forth in the UHPA contract.
Generally most tenured track faculty must go up for tenure after 5 years. Exceptions may be granted to go up early for tenure or extend probation period up to 7 years.

3. Tenure Documents are due to the Chancellor on October 5 by 4:30 pm – NO late documents will be accepted.
Failure to submit a document at the conclusion of your probationary period will result in a terminal year contract.
If you are Rank 2, you must apply for promotion to Rank 3.

4. Criteria for Tenure Documents should include:
your own philosophy and goals regarding teaching.
your perceptions about the students we serve, including their needs and aspirations.
a self-analysis of the degree of attainment of student learning outcomes.
the impact and contributions you have made towards achieving your professional objectives and meeting your studentsʻ needs.

5. Preparing the Dossier
Your application should clearly show how you fully meet the expectations of the rank and criteria at which tenure is requested.
Please complete Parts I, II, and IX of the application form. Your Department Chair will be able to assist with completing these forms.
Make sure your dossier is organized in such a way as to prevent loss of any material. Dossier should be paginated and bound.

6. Guidelines for Promotion
Promotion Dossier should demonstrate that you meet the minimum qualifications for the Rank you are apply for.
Promotion Dossier should include the same information that was found in your tenure document; however it should clearly state how you meet the criteria for the Rank you are applying for.

7. Primary Responsibility of Faculty
See appendix for primary responsibility for different types of faculty: Instruction, Continuing Education and Training, Academic Support, and Counseling.
