Academic staff members who are appointed to teaching positions, either on a part-time or fulltime basis, shall be appointed only upon the affirmative recommendation of the faculty of the academic unit within which their teaching responsibilities will lie. The faculty of the academic unit shall also participate in the decision to renew or nonrenew the appointments of such academic staff members. Renewals of the appointments shall be made only with the affirmative recommendation of the faculty concerned. Within the academic unit, only faculty members with at least two consecutive semesters of service at UW-River Falls and who have neither received nonrenewal notices nor resigned for reasons other than retirement, shall be eligible to vote on questions of appointment and reappointment of academic staff members with teaching responsibilities.
