I am writing to request evaluations of members of the senior administration on the Vancouver campus. It has been well over three years since faculty have been asked to undertake the 360 Degree Evaluation of any of our leadership. With the university having returned to regular operations following the pandemic, it is time to begin this process once again.
The recent Employee Engagement Survey sent to faculty does not suffice as a method of evaluating administration. Additionally, because the survey was distributed by members of the senior administration, some faculty and staff members chose not to participate in that survey for fear that it did not guarantee anonymity and that their responses could be tracked via their email addresses, resulting in retaliation for less than positive comments.
Thus, it is time to evaluate our administration. Faculty need to be able to voice their views about administrators’ performances and to do so on a regular reporting cycle once again. ~Anonymous Faculty

The president and provost’s offices have created websites to address the review process for administrators responsible to them and are linked here. We appreciate their efforts to address these concerns and hope this will incentivize similar efforts at the chancellor’s levels. We will continue to raise this issue as needed. ~(03.04.24)
