College of Arts & Sciences
Interfolio will be used for annual and multi-year faculty activities reports in all schools except the School of Law beginning in Fall 2023. To assist the departments in the College of Arts and Sciences that have not yet used Faculty180 and Interfolio for annual review, the Acting Provosts have made the following accommodations:
- Full professors in the College may phase-in to using the system.
- Full professors in the College whose FAR cycles include terms before Fall 2023 will have the option to present their supporting materials in Google Drive or in Interfolio. They would begin to use Interfolio exclusively beginning in the fall term coinciding with their next FAR submission (phase-in schedule).
- If you are a full professor and you choose Google Drive as the repository for a multi-year review due between now and Fall 2027, you will upload the completed College FAR form, with a link to your Google file folder, in the "Personal Statement" area in Faculty180, and you will submit your case to your chair and dean from your Interfolio dashboard by the College deadline. The FAR workflow for the department and dean will be done in Interfolio.
- The Provost's Office will provide financial support for student wages to the seven departments with the largest number of faculty compiling multi-year FARs. The departments can hire students to help with data entry before the fall 2023 FAR deadline (up to 25 student hours at $17.20 per hour, per department). The seven departments are:
- Biology
- Chemistry & Biochemistry
- Mathematics & Computer Science
- Modern Languages & Literatures
- Philosophy
- Political Science
- Theatre & Dance
Pandora del Carmen, Manager for Faculty Affairs, will train the department-based student assistants. The Provost’s Office will also continue to support three of our own students to assist other faculty.
