IRVINE: EXECUTIVE VICE CHANCELLOR AND PROVOST
November 21, 2005 ACADEMIC DEANS AND DEPARTMENT CHAIRS RE: Revised Search Activities Statement Working with representatives from ADVANCE and the Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity, we have revised the Search Activities Statement (Form UCI-AP-80) for regular ranks recruitments, separating the requested information into two parts. Part one is an "Interim Search Activities Statement" that asks for information regarding the applicant pool and the short list of candidates. This form is intended to support the early phase of the recruitment process, when search committees and department chairs are assessing the total number of applicants to determine if additional outreach is necessary to attain a representative pool. Prior to candidates being invited to campus for an interview, departments will route the Interim Search Activities Statement to the Dean's office for review and comment, ensuring that Equity Advisors and Deans have the same opportunity in all schools to participate actively in recruitments. Part two will function as the "Final Search Activities Statement," providing required information about the selection of the final candidate for the appointment. With this change, we have renumbered the two parts of the Search Activities Statement, as well as the current Search Plan and Advertisement (Form UCI-AP-82), to show their inter-relatedness in the review process. The three forms are now listed as UCI-AP-80a, -80b, and -80c. We understand that searches are well underway in most schools, but we ask you to incorporate these new forms into your processes as soon as possible. Equity Advisors are prepared to work closely with department chairs to be sure that the purpose of the forms is understood. If you have already invited candidates to campus for interviews, you may submit the Interim form at the end of the process with the Final search statement. Herbert P. Killackey Attachments
