Re:  Redelegation of Authority – Health Sciences Clinical Professor Series

Authority for academic personnel actions was delegated to the Executive Vice Chancellor by the Chancellor in delegation of authority, IDA 311, dated July 3, 2000.  Effective immediately, I am redelegating authority to you for the following within policy actions:

• Appointment of Health Sciences Assistant Clinical Professors, Steps I through III, who are identified following an approved search.
• Appointment of Health Sciences Clinical Instructors, who are identified following an approved search. 
• Appointment of Clinical Observers (Research Associates).  As these appointments are designated “without salary,” an approved search is not a requirement.

I am also redelegating to you the authority to approve merit increases and designated actions for academic appointees in the Health Sciences Clinical Professor series, as follows:

Health Sciences Clinical Instructor:	Reappointment for second year
Health Sciences Assistant Clinical Professor:	Step I to Step II Step II to Step III Step III to Step IV Step IV to Step V Step V to Step VI
Health Sciences Associate Clinical Professor:	Step I to Step II Step II to Step III Step III to Step IV Step IV to Step V
Health Sciences Clinical Professor:	Step I to Step II Step II to Step III Step III to Step IV Step IV to Step V ------------------------ Step VI to Step VII Step VII to Step VIII Step VIII to Step IX

Actions for appointees in the Health Sciences Clinical Professor series that will continue to require approval by the Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost or his designee are the following:

• All promotions
• Advancement to Health Sciences Clinical Professor, Step VI
• Advancement to Above Scale and/or Above Scale Merits
• Midcareer Appraisals
• All cases recommending reappointment without a merit
• All cases recommending acceleration
• All exceptions to policy and any other actions not specifically included in this redelegation.

All appointments and merits approvals must be consistent with current systemwide and local policies.

These authorities may be further redelegated only to the Senior Associate Dean, Academic Affairs, School of Medicine.
