Faculty Handbook 2002 Seventh Edition, Cornell University

Author
University Faculty, Office of the
Abstract
This seventh edition of the Faculty Handbook, like its predecessors, is issued by the Office
of the University Faculty and is intended primarily "...to provide information for the
general guidance of faculty members, particularly newcomers, concerning the
university, its organization, and its policies."
Change is continual at Cornell. Each year, new faculty and trustee legislation is enacted;
policies, procedures, and fringe benefits are modified; new facilities, centers, institutes,
and programs come into being; and the administrative organization is altered. The
latest version of this handbook will reside on the University Faculty website
(http://www.cornell.edu/UniversityFaculty/) and policies will be updated as
necessary. When circumstances require assurance of completeness or validity of
information, the university office that is the authority on the particular matter should
be consulted. The Cornell University Policy Office website
(http://www.univco.cornell.edu/policy/) should also be accessed for the current
versions of all codified policies. In addition, the staff of the Office of the University
Faculty will be pleased to assist faculty members.
Judy Bower, who served in the Office of the University Faculty for twenty-seven years,
brought her extensive knowledge of faculty governance and university policies to her
role as editor of this new edition. I salute Judy for her years of distinguished service
and thank her for preparing this new edition. While many persons reviewed sections
of the handbook, the ultimate responsibility for accuracy rests with the Office of the
University Faculty.
