Termination of employment
In contrast with discharge, "termination
of employment" is unrelated to disciplinary penalties.
Section
605 of
The Code of the Board of Governors and Section
IX of UNCW's Policies of Academic Freedom and Tenure
state that the employment of faculty members with permanent tenure
or of faculty members
appointed
to a
fixed term
may
be terminated
by
the
university because of:
- demonstrable, bona fide institutional
financial exigency or
- major curtailment or elimination of a teaching,
research,
or public-service program.
For complete information on termination, including procedures and
requirements for timely notice, see Section
605 of The Code and Section
IX of UNCW's Policies of Academic Freedom and Tenure.
Appeal from termination
A faculty member who alleges that the termination was arbitrary or
capricious may appeal the decision to the Faculty Hearings Committee,
in accordance with the procedure specified in Section
IX.B.6 of Policies of Academic Freedom and
Tenure.
