Thanks to the Emerald for sharing this with UOM.
So far as I am aware previous UO administrations have never been willing to share this sort of information with the Senate – but maybe that will change, and the day will come when shared governance will no longer have to rely on the kindness and curiosity of UO’s student journalists, or the whims of Jim Bean’s 4.25 big ideas and their ilk.
Or maybe the PRO is just trying to clear up their backlog before Oregon’s new PR laws make them improve their response times. 207 pages worth with some light and appropriate redactions, and all provided to the Emerald by UO at no charge – remarkable.
You can find the Provost’s Institutional Hiring Plan, i.e. the outcome of these proposals, here.
The full pdf of the proposals is here: https://uomatters.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/2017-Hiring-proposals_Redacted.pdf
I haven’t had time to read through these, I’m hoping others will and leave comments. Page 1:
One thing to notice is that many of the approved searches in
NS are continuations of failed searches from last year – I am involved in some of these failures and from my experience in this, we are just not being competitive in these areas we are trying to hire in.
I think that will change, but we need to become competitive sooner,
rather than later
