The º£½ÇÂÛ̳ Rank and Tenure Committee (CRTC) is established in Article V, Section 5 of theÌý: “The º£½ÇÂÛ̳ Rank and Tenure Committee (CRTC) shall (a) provide feedback to departments on tenure and/or promotion dossiers, (b) independently review candidates, and (c) advise the dean of the º£½ÇÂÛ̳ of Arts & Sciences on tenure and/or promotion cases and policy.
