Affiliate faculty are nominated by an elected core faculty member and their approval is at the Center director’s discretion.
Associate faculty are individuals who make substantial and sustained contributions to the Center’s mission through active collaboration in research, teaching, and scholarly activities. They typically hold a University faculty appointment and maintain an ongoing professional relationship with one or more elected core faculty members or Center mission areas. Associate faculty are nominated by an elected core faculty member followed by a formal review and voting process by all elected core faculty.
Elected core faculty are selected through a formal review and voting process in recognition of their leadership and sustained contributions to the Center’s mission. They play a central role in shaping and advancing the Center's programs, mentor future scholars and represent the Center within and beyond the University. Members are typically expected to hold a University faculty appointment and maintain active involvement in the Center’s academic and community activities.
Exceptions to the appointment requirement may be granted by Center leadership and a majority vote of the elected core faculty.
