Welcome to UGA
I want to join all of your colleagues at the University of Georgia in welcoming you to the University and to Athens. Ours is an intellectually and culturally vibrant institution which, I believe, you will find stimulating and rewarding. In addition, the Athens-Clarke County community offers a quality of life that is uncommonly high. During the next few months, you will be hearing about many of the services and activities that are of particular importance to new faculty members. Please familiarize yourself with the Office of the Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs website. The Academic Affairs Policy Manual covers the University’s academic policies and procedures. Relevant Board of Regents policy is included where appropriate. The authoritative source concerning Board-approved policies and procedures governing academic matters is the Board of Regents Policy Manual. In the event of conflict with the Academic Affairs Policy Manual, the Regents Policy Manual prevails. Recruitment of faculty is a key to the University’s future. Each appointment, with its subsequent tenure and promotion decisions, shapes the quality of the institution. The Office of Faculty Affairs maintains official University records relating to faculty and works with the Board of Regents to ensure faculty appointments, promotion and tenure are approved at the University System level. Additional information can be obtained from these areas at the OVPAA website. If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Jayne Smith, who serves as Director of the Office of Faculty Affairs, at 542-0547 or smithjl@uga.edu. Meanwhile, I hope that you will avail yourself of the opportunities that will be yours as you become part of the University and the community. I look forward to meeting you and to welcoming you to the University of Georgia. Arnett
