Attached memo outlines the option for faculty to include an External Impact Statement in their review materials for annual, reappointment, tenure, promotion, and post-tenure evaluations.
This optional statement allows faculty to contextualize their professional activities in light of external challenges, such as disruptions to research, teaching, service, or student support. Including these statements supports fair and comprehensive evaluations of faculty performance. These external impact statements are separate from the Covid Impact Statements instituted two years ago (see attached).
