There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
Faculty who will be undergoing evaluations for critical review, tenure, and promotion may be wondering how the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic will be considered in those evaluations. To address these questions, the Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Education and Faculty Development invites pre-tenure faculty and academic faculty going up for promotion in the next five years to participate in a discussion.
During the discussion, we'll review guidelines on how to build a package and the proposed approach for how reviewers will be asked to consider the effect of Covid-19 in their evaluations. The feedback from this discussion will be used to finalize the guidance that will be used going forward. For more information on the current advice, see the FAQ on Faculty Covid-19 Impacts.
