Position Review Committee
This committee reviews all new and vacant faculty and staff postings in Stillwater as part of an ongoing effort to improve efficiency in university recruitment. This review extends to temporary faculty positions and all staff waivers that result in a vacant position being posted. It does not include Agricultural Experiment Station and Extension faculty and staff positions.
Meetings are held every two weeks as outlined in the table below. The committee members are as follows:
- President Jim Hess
- Provost and Senior Vice President Jeanette Mendez
- Senior Vice President and Chief Financial & Administrative Officer Chris Kuwitzky
- Chief Operating Officer Jason Ramsey
- Associate Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer Christa Louthan
To submit a position to the Position Review committee, the position description must be completed and approved within the PageUp system. At that time, those requesting a position to go before the committee should launch the job card for that position and access the Recruitment Approval Request Form from the side menu by clicking "Documents," then "Create Recruitment Brief."
This fully integrated position request process within the PageUp system is designed to streamline approvals, align with our existing recruitment workflow and incorporate the faculty approval process consolidating all steps of the PRC request process into a single system.
The job card may be completed and sent for approval prior to receiving a determination from the PRC. By doing so, once approval comes from the committee, the Talent Development and Recruitment team can post approved positions within 24 business hours.
Completion of the form within the job card must be received by 5 p.m. one week prior to the bi-weekly meeting.This entails completing the form, initiating the approval workflow and initial approval by your Key Administrative Officer by 5 p.m. to be in the PRC queue. Please reference the table below for dates and deadlines.
