Abstract
Faculty leaves from work and accommodations for personal and/or family circumstances are increasingly common. The COVID pandemic accelerated these trends. Crucially, these varying work arrangements differentially affect the annual research output of faculty. Because of the disparate circumstances that scholars might face, in this essay we recommend that external reviewers assess a scholar’s complete body of work, make cohort comparisons to scholars who recently received a similar advancement, and refrain from cohort comparisons based on year of PhD conferral.
Keywords: faculty promotion, tenure, external reviewer
