Sharing the Evaluation & Administering the Rebuttal Period
Updated onChecklistAs part of the Lecturer Evaluation process the Dean usually is the one to make the final decision regarding the outcome, as such he or she is not required to run a rebuttal period, though many do. However every college Dean is required to share copies of the evaluation he or she composed with each faculty member under review. The only exception is a “Range Elevation” evaluation, those require a rebuttal period because the Provost is the one who makes the final decision. If the rebuttal period is run, then the faculty member under review must provide a decision to the Dean about whether or not the right to rebuttal is exercised. This decision must be indicated by the faculty member using the FAR Lecturer Rebuttal form, and that form, along with any rebuttal statements must be uploaded to Interfolio in response to the rebuttal period set up using the process outlined below It is the Dean's responsibility to ensure that each faculty member under review in your College receives a copy of the appropriate documentation by the published deadline in the FAR Annual Lecturer Timetables.

Changing Order of Uploaded Documents
Updated onArticleOne of the quirks of the Interfolio platform where faculty members upload their documents for evaluations is that the files are uploaded to the platform by File Size NOT File Name. Often times resulting in documents that are out of the order desired by the faculty member. Which is why it is recommended that faculty members upload documents in small batches, when more than one document is required in an any given review packet section. Smaller batches makes it easier to rearrange document order so that it reflects what is listed on your Table of Contents. Documents uploaded by the faculty member to an active review packet can be rearranged one of two ways, either individually or in groups.
