Deans' Evaluations and Statements

Each dean receiving an annual or comprehensive review prepares a report summarizing the previous year's goals and accomplishments. Deans submit reports to the Office of the Associate Provost for Faculty Development in January. Reports are shared with the dean evaluation committees, faculty, and others during the evaluation process.

To request a copy of a dean's statement after the evaluation is complete, contact Associate Provost for Faculty Development Katie Hartman (hartmank@ohio.edu)

Electronic Dean Evaluation Process

As in the past, the Office of Institutional Effectiveness & Analytics staff will aggregate the responses and compile the written comments for each evaluation committee. In keeping with the guidelines of the Faculty Handbook, appropriate measures are taken to ensure process security and responders' anonymity.

By clicking on the link in the email from the Executive Vice President and Provost, responders will be directed to a secure Web server accessed using their OHIO IDs and passwords. This is a security measure only used to ensure that access to the evaluation is restricted to faculty and others within the college or regional campus who will evaluate the dean. IDs and passwords are not recorded with responses.

Along with the link, the email will include a randomly generated ID number. This security measure is needed to prevent duplicate and invalid responses. The ID number will not be associated with responders' IDs or email addresses. The email list used to generate the messages to responders will be deleted.

Altering or deleting the ID number will prevent evaluations from being recorded for analysis.

Because the ID number is unique to a specific response, more than one person cannot use the same number. Doing so causes duplications. Duplicates of completed survey forms will not be included in the evaluation data.

If you have questions about the electronic evaluation process or the evaluation instrument, please contact the Office of Institutional Effectiveness & Analytics at IEA@ohio.edu.
