  • Helpful Guidance for an Effective Search Process September 17, 2015
    Helpful Guidance for an Effective Search Process September 17, 2015 [Opening Remarks and Introductions] JUDY SINGER: Good afternoon, everyone. I'm Judy Singer. I'm the senior Vice Provost for Faculty Development and Diversity. And I want to thank you all for joining us this afternoon for this event on the faculty search process. I think we have a very interesting panel of experienced search committee members and chairs. We have a lot of people in the room who, themselves, have been on many search committees, are department chairs, deans, a lot of people in positions of responsibility. And I just want to start out with my first introduction to the importance of faculty searches. So in the mid '80s, I met Derek Bok for the first time. I was a junior faculty member, I was an assistant professor. And I think I might have been half an inch taller than I am now, but for those of you who remember Derek Bok, in his heyday he was like 6'6". And there was easily a foot and a half between us, as well as other power differentials. And I met him at a cocktail party, and where-- and I'm not even sure what the purpose of the party was. I was just totally tongue tied. Here I am with the president of Harvard University, and my research collaborator, John Willett, was with me. And he came up with a question to ask Derek Bok. He said, Mr. President-- which is what you would call Derek Bok-- is it true that you review every tenure case at Harvard University? And he looked down-- John wasn't much taller than I am-- looked down the two of us, and he said-- I can't imitate his voice-- in a very low base, well yes.

One of the critical aspects of the search process is ensuring confidentiality to applicants as provided under the law. This memo is intended to assist in understanding your responsibility in maintaining confidentiality. Any questions about this issue should be directed to the search committee chair. 1. Complete confidentiality in the search process, in accordance with the law, is essential in order to attract qualified candidates who trust that their information will not be prematurely disclosed, and to ensure compliance with applicable laws. 2. Search committee members will have access to private personnel data, and each search committee member must take all necessary precautions to safeguard the information received. 3. The Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (MGDPA) governs “personnel data” collected, created, received, maintained or disseminated by a governmental entity such as MnSCU. Personnel data includes information on both applicants for positions and employees. Minnesota Statutes sections 13.03, 13.43. 4. Under the MGDPA, certain personnel data are private, other information is public. Determination of what is public data will be made by the Search Chair in coordination with college and system office officials.
