returned to the faculty member.

for Reappointment, Promotion and Tenure (see Attachment 1) is
required for all personnel actions.
It is the responsibility of the faculty member to have prima facie

requested, by reviewers at any level of the personnel action process.
Actions involving
tenure and promotion also require a properly executed ECU Personnel Action Summary Form (see Attachment 2).
