III.I.3   Extension of Time in Rank

The ten-year limit (nine years in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the Divinity School, and the School of Forestry & Environmental Studies) on non-tenure appointments and the limits on time in a particular rank may be extended for a faculty member who has held part-time appointment in a ladder rank, up to a maximum of three additional years. The Provost, on the recommendation of the appropriate dean, will determine whether to grant such an extension. However, in no case may an individual be on part-time status or a combination of part-time and full-time status in term appointments to the ladder ranks for a period that exceeds thirteen years (twelve in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and the Schools of Architecture, Divinity, and Forestry & Environmental Studies), including any extensions as described in Section F.
