Abstract
Service is an important element of the faculty experience at Queens College. In Spring 2025, the Center for Excellence in Teaching, Learning, and Leadership (CETLL) convened two panels about fulfilling expectations for service activities for QC faculty at various stages of tenure and promotion. Each of the panels was comprised of deans, department chairs, and faculty members, including a Provost’s Faculty Fellow.
The panels aimed to address recurring faculty questions about service, including:
-
what activities are recognized as faculty service
-
how to document service activities
-
how service activities factor into tenure, promotion, and CCE decisions
This informational document condenses the panelists’ remarks. The document is recommended for faculty seeking tenure, CCE, and/or promotion to associate professor, full professor, or senior lecturer. (As per the 2023-2027 PSC-CUNY Contract, Lecturers have a pathway to promotion to Senior Lecturer.)
We invite you to read the full document to have the benefit of panelists’ insights, and to share this information widely with your faculty colleagues.
