Termination of the Employment of a Faculty Member. The procedures for termination of the employment of a faculty member due to financial exigency or program curtailment or elimination are specified in detail in Section 8 of the Tenure Document. To complete the separation process for a faculty member whose employment is terminated, the Dean’s Office prepares a "notice of separation PD-7 citing "termination for financial exigency" or "termination for program curtailment (or elimination)" as the reason for removal from the payroll and forwards it with Affirmative Action Memorandum (Form AA-27) to the Provost’s Office. The Provost’s office will forward the PD-7 to the Payroll Office and makes the referral to the Benefits Office.
