Stephen F. Austin State University recognizes that faculty performance should be regularly and systematically evaluated. Adjunct faculty administrative evaluations should be used when considering reappointment.

Faculty Evaluation
Adjunct faculty members shall be evaluated annually for their performance of assigned duties, which will include teaching and may include other activities. For the evaluation, the academic unit chair/director will review student evaluations of teaching and gather and review all available information and material relevant to the performance of the adjunct faculty member.

The academic unit chair/director shall review with each adjunct faculty member the information being considered and the administrative evaluation. A copy of the administrative evaluation shall be provided to the adjunct faculty member. After the administrative reviews are completed, the chair/director may meet with the college dean to review adjunct faculty evaluations.
