*In cases where a junior faculty member is at rank 48 or above, he or she shall carry the title of Assistant Professor unless he or she has completed six or more years of full-time service in a teaching position at a college or university that awards a baccalaureate or higher degree. The title of Associate Professor shall be conferred once the faculty member begins a tenured appointment, or has completed six such years of full-time service in a teaching position, whichever is sooner. These prescriptions do not affect the faculty member’s rank. Approved by CAT 08/21/2015.

The policy is being grandfathered in. It will apply to faculty who begin working at Reed in 2016 and beyond, but does not apply retroactively to faculty already working here (or already offered a contract).

**CAT voted unanimously to eliminate ranks 52A and 52B and to replace both with 52. All ranked at 52 will be labeled "associate" professors. Approved 08/18/2017.
