Subject: President's Three Year Review of Vice Presidents
As I near the end of my third year of service to EIU as president, and consistent with Internal Governing Policy 31, Section 2, it is timely to conduct three year performance reviews for Vice Presidents Lord and Nadler, who have served in their positions for the entirety of my term. The three year review is in addition to annual reviews of performance, which I have conducted each year for all vice presidents. The three year review serves as part of this year’s performance reviews and provides a longer term perspective on performance.
An integral part of the third year review process is the use of the Administrative Feedback Instrument as provided in IGP 31. Respective constituent groups listed below are asked to submit the Administrative Feedback Instrument. Participation is encouraged, but is voluntary. Details on confidential submission of completed forms to me follow at the end of this email.
Campus Constituent Respondent Groups.
For Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Blair Lord:
• All faculty
• Deans, Department Heads, and Directors in the Division of Academic Affairs
