A. The Student Promotion Committee shall be composed of the associate dean
for student affairs, two students, one from each biennium, and
eight members elected by the faculty. Each elected faculty member
shall serve for four years; one fourth of the faculty positions
will be filled by election annually. Each student will serve
a one-year term.
Recognizing that the School of Medicine desires a diverse
student body and serves a total community, the committee should,
ideally, include representation from this broad constituency.
In the event that the associate dean for student affairs perceives an imbalance
in the composition of the committee, the associate dean may, with the concurrence
of the majority of the committee voting, appoint an additional
one to two faculty members for a one-year term.
B. The Student Promotion Committee shall:
- Evaluate the overall performance of each medical student
at the termination of each academic year and recommend to the
associate dean for student affairs, the promotion, or other appropriate
action, of the student.
a. During the course of an academic year, the associate dean and the committee chair
shall have major responsibility for keeping the Student Promotion
Committee informed as to the performance of each class, paying
particular attention to those students experiencing academic
difficulty.
b. When appropriate, the committee chair may call the committee into session
for formal review and/or action related to a student's academic
performance.
- Nominate medical students for certification of graduation
in the instance of the final grading sequence. The nominations
must be ratified by the Faculty of Medicine before presentation
to the president for final action by the Board of Trustees.
C. The committee shall meet upon the call of the chair at
least once at the termination of each academic year. It can be called for specific business during the academic
year by the dean, its chair, or by written petition to its chair
by any two members of the committee.
D. A student may petition the associate dean for student affairs that
there be further deliberations in the student's behalf; the associate dean
may call the committee to deliberate the specific petition. Results
of such a call meeting shall be recorded and filed in the office
of the associate dean for student affairs.
