In this week's Chronicle of Higher Education,
an article by Michele
Singer describes "the Weasel clause" as
the often hidden clause in the university handbook that specifies
that tenure and other appointment decisions need not be based on
articulated criteria that can be objectively measured...
Faculty whose tenure is denied by means of such a provision, despite
good research, teaching, and service, can't be distinguished from
faculty denied tenure for poor job performance.

As the high gear of November kicks in, one additional chore I face this year is assembling my annual pre-tenure review file. Having gone
through this process 5 times at a previous job, then giving up tenure there to take my current position, I definitely feel like an old hand
at this business. It occurred to me that sharing my thoughts on the process of actually putting together the review packet might be helpful to folks in their first year of an academic job.

Recently I had the opportunity to participate on a review panel for a
set of proposals designed to improve one or more aspects of undergraduate
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education.
