Rule 3354:1-30-04 | Board student scholar policy.
Effective:
November 18, 2011
(A) Purpose. Each year, the board of
trustees will have a board student scholar. The board student scholar is
intended to help the board receive perspectives and other information from
students about their needs, suggestions, and concerns. The role is also to
provide board student scholars with a learning opportunity related to
organizational governance and leadership. The board student scholar is not a
trustee, has no voting rights, and does not participate in decision-making or
executive sessions. (B) Duties. The board student scholar will attend the
following meetings and events: meetings of the board of trustees and its
academic and student affairs committee, student retreats, college leadership
development classes, student government meetings, and joint student council
meetings. Subject to college policies relating to procurement and expense
reimbursement, the college will cover costs associated with the board student
scholar's participation in these meetings. During joint student council
meetings, the board student scholar will gather issues from the four campuses
relevant for board discussion. The board student scholar will have
opportunities to present such issues to the board or its
committees. (C) Selection and criteria. The board student scholar will
be selected by the joint student council during the spring semester. Students
must be 18 years or older to be selected as a board student scholar
representing the student body. Each year, the board student scholar will be
chosen from the Eastern, Metropolitan, Western, or Westshore campus student
body on a rotating basis. The board student scholar must be and remain
currently enrolled, and have and maintain at least a 2.50 grade point average.
If a board student scholar loses such status, he or she will be removed by the
college, in which event the joint student council must select a replacement
from the same campus for the remainder of the academic year. The board student
scholar will serve a term of one academic year and may not serve multiple
terms. The board student scholar must have successfully completed at least
twenty semester credit hours or its equivalent by the beginning of his/her term
as board student scholar with no maximum accumulated credit hours each
semester. The board student scholar must be enrolled in at least eight credit
hours each semester, and have at least one year of student leadership
experience at Cuyahoga Community college. Except for work-study students, the
board student scholar may not be an employee of the college. (D) Implementation. The president or the president's
designee is hereby directed to take all steps necessary and appropriate for the
effective implementation of this policy.

the college's mission, vision, values, and goals. To encourage and foster
such communication, the college shall maintain a governance
system. (B) The governance system shall include committees charged
with providing advice and recommendations on behalf of various college
constituencies. Each committee will elect its own chair and secretary and will
function as a committee for two years. (C) Committees shall receive annual charges from the

president. (D) The college acknowledges that the full-time faculty has
formed a "Faculty Senate" through which the full-time faculty prefers
to communicate certain advice and recommendations to the governance
system. (E) The president or the president's designee is
hereby directed to take all steps necessary and appropriate for the effective
implementation of this policy.

Rule 3354:1-30-06 | Policy on human subjects research.
(A) The college may engage in research
involving human subjects for the purpose of systematic investigation designed
to develop or contribute to the advancement of knowledge. All such research
must comply with this policy, even if it: (1) Is only partially
conducted by the college (2) Is only partially
funded by the college (3) Is not funded or
conducted by the college, but the college permits or directs its employees or
students to participate as researchers or subjects (B) Human subjects research must be
conducted in a manner consistent with federal and state laws and regulations
(including without limitation 45 C.F.R. Part 46, as amended from time-to-time),
and may be conducted in a manner consistent with other generally-accepted
professional standards governing the research. (C) In conducting human subjects
research, the college will adhere to the principles of autonomy, beneficence,
and justice: (1) Autonomy provides
subjects the information, time, respect and opportunity to make informed
decisions regarding participation in research with special regard for
particularly vulnerable populations. No research may be conducted using any
person unless that person has given the college a signed written consent
form. (2) Beneficence provides
for a thoughtful balance of benefits and risks that protects subjects from harm
and regards their well-being. The college shall establish an institutional
review board to review and approve proposed research on human subjects prior to
the start of any research it partially or wholly conducts or funds. The college
will seek to minimize risks of harm to subjects in such research. (3) Justice provides for
fair and unbiased distribution of benefits and burdens of research as well as
impartial and equitable subject selection. (D) The president or the president's
designee is hereby directed to take all steps necessary and appropriate for the
effective implementation of this policy.

Rule 3354:1-30-07 | Tenure Policy.
(A) Tenure is awarded in recognition of
faculty competence to the college's instructional faculty, counselors and
librarians. Tenure, by tradition, is evidence of an academic institution's
support of academic freedom and the professional responsibility of the
individual to whom tenure is awarded. (B) Tenure, the continuous appointment to
employment, awarded by the board of trustees in recognition of faculty
competence, is the college's most effective means for establishing a
climate of academic freedom and professional responsibility. (C) All tenure-track faculty shall become
eligible for tenure after five years of service to the college during which
they have served over fifty per cent of their annual contractual time in a
teaching capacity. Teaching capacity is defined by the college as: classroom
instruction, college librarian, or counseling. Additionally, in order to be
granted tenure, tenure-track faculty must meet the criteria governing
eligibility for the rank of assistant professor. Further, in order to be
granted tenure, tenure-track faculty must have demonstrated teaching ability,
creative achievement, academic integrity, and professional service to the
college. Once awarded, tenure shall be continuous until the retirement of the
faculty member or the termination of the individual's
contract. (D) Should a faculty member be denied
tenure at the time of eligibility, the college shall provide the member with
written reasons for the denial. (E) A tenured faculty member may be
terminated due to retrenchment or just cause. (F) The executive vice president for
academic and student affairs, using appropriate governance guidelines, is
authorized to develop and implement procedures necessary to carry out this
policy.

January 1, 2016
(A) In order to recognize, maintain, and
improve the total effectiveness of the faculty of the College, the performance
of all faculty members employed by the College will be evaluated in writing in
accordance with the provisions of this policy. The policy is intended to
provide for the assessment of individual performance and to encourage
improvement in achieving the educational goals of the College. The evaluation
system provides for improvement of the quality of instruction, for
encouragement of professional growth and development, and for informed
personnel decisions. (B) The written evaluations prescribed herein will be
considered prior to personnel decisions including, but not limited to,
reassignment, contract renewal for non-tenured faculty, termination, and the
granting of academic rank and tenure. (C) The evaluation procedures of the College will provide
for multiple sources of information on faculty performance. The sources include
evaluation by self, peers, students, supervisors, and other appropriate
sources. The combination of information sources as defined by CCC-AAUP contract
and performance categories for each faculty member's evaluation will be
agreed upon between the faculty member and his/her immediate supervisor, but at
a minimum will include evaluation by the immediate supervisor and the faculty
member's students. Other sources agreed upon by the faculty and immediate
supervisor may also be included. In accordance with the procedure, any forms
used to collect such information will be standardized across the
College. (D) Written evaluations will be required as
follows: (1) A written evaluation of the performance of each
full-time tenured faculty member will be conducted by the immediate supervisor,
or the appropriate dean/director, once every three academic years. (2) A written evaluation of the performance of each
full-time tenure track faculty member will be conducted by the immediate
supervisor, or the appropriate dean/director, and shall occur twice annually
during the first two academic years of the probationary period and once
annually during the remaining academic years of the probationary
period. (3) A written evaluation for each full-time lecturer will
be conducted by the immediate supervisor at least twice per year, at least once
in the first semester and at least once during the second semester, after the
first, agreed to by the lecturer and the supervisor. (4) A written evaluation of each part-time lecturer, based
on classroom observance and student evaluations, will be conducted by the
immediate supervisor, or the supervisor's designee, during the initial
semester of service and, thereafter, at least once every two academic semesters
during which the part-time lecturer performs services for the College. (This
provision does not apply to full-time tenure or tenure-track faculty or
full-time lecturers who perform additional assignments as part-time
lecturers.) (E) Original copies of written evaluation reports for
full-time faculty will be kept in the district office of human resources. Each
faculty member will be provided with a copy of his/her evaluation by the
supervisor before it becomes an official College record. The faculty member may
prepare a written response to the evaluation and may request a re-evaluation.
If such written response is submitted, it will be made part of the official
College record. Disagreements arising from faculty evaluations will be resolved
according to CCC-AAUP contract grievance procedure. (F) After completion of each written evaluation report,
each tenured and tenure track faculty member will submit a professional
development plan to their dean/director. The preparation and implementation of
the plan will be the responsibility of the faculty member in conjunction with
the dean/director. If requested, the office of teaching, learning, and academic
professional development will provide the appropriate support for this
activity. (G) The office of the access, learning and success is
responsible for approving all standard forms used in collecting faculty
performance information consistent with provisions of the contract between the
board of trustees and the CCC chapter of the AAUP. (H) The campus presidents and vice presidents of
college-wide programs are responsible for ensuring that all faculty members are
evaluated according to the provisions of this policy. (I) The executive vice president for access, learning, and
success, and the executive director of access, learning and success are hereby
directed to establish procedures and take all other steps necessary and
appropriate for the effective implementation of this policy.
