CHE Committee of Distinguished and Named Professors, Attached please see the results of the straw poll. Because of some of the feedback and written commentary, I have also appended below the university's requirements and expectations for named and limited-term named professorships, especially highlighting those situations that look at factors other than academic scholarship. We can go out for external letters based on these results. They key decision point will occur when the completed dossier (including the letters) are assembled. Note: for your convenience, there is now an email alias available for your use, che-DNP@ecn.purdue.edu<mailto:che-DNP@ecn.purdue.edu> for emails to this group. --- Sang https://www.purdue.edu/policies/human-resources/vic1.html STATEMENT OF POLICY The practice of awarding distinguished and named professors emphasizes the University's commitment to excellence in discovery, learning and engagement. Faculty recipients of these awards should be outstandingly original, creative and productive individuals whose achievements in discovery and learning have been internationally recognized or who have made a unique contribution to the University through discovery, learning and/or engagement. ... Named Professor(ship) A title that recognizes a professorship supported by an external funding source. Named Professorships must meet the requirements of University policy and procedures on naming opportunities. The purpose of a Named Professorship is to attract and retain top quality faculty. While it is expected that recipients of Named Professorships are individuals of high accomplishment, faculty with the rank of assistant, associate or full professor may hold a Named Professorship. It is not an academic designation, but a form of recognition. The term of a Named Professorship is specified in writing and may be revoked where performance or other factors are determined to warrant such action. A Named Professorship is not a prerequisite for becoming a Distinguished Professor. ... Named Term Professor(ship) A title that recognizes the achievements of assistant, associate or full professors who have distinguished themselves among their peers, but who are not yet candidates for Named Professorships. The recipient holds the title of the vacant Named Professorship, with the word "term" inserted, for a one-time, non-renewable term not exceeding five years. Recipients may not hold a University Faculty Scholar designation at the same time, and the Named Term Professorship will be discontinued if the faculty member receives a Named or Distinguished Professor title. The endowment earnings that accrue while a Named Professorship remains vacant may provide the source of funds for this award. A Named Term Professorship may be revoked where performance or other factors are determined to warrant such action.
