RE: Issuance of Revised APM 235 and Conforming Revisions to Campus Academic Personnel Manual (CAPM) 506.235 —Acting Professor Series Appointments and Regularizations 

Dear Colleagues: 

UC Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs Newman has formally issued revised APM 235, Acting Appointments. The revised policy is effective January 17, 2025, and can be found on the Academic Personnel and Programs website. The revisions address the renaming of the Lecturer with Security of Employment series to the Professor of Teaching series and remove outdated language in 235-25 regarding when an appointee in the Acting Associate Professor/Acting Associate Teaching Professor or Acting Professor/Acting Teaching Professor title can be transferred to a regular professor or teaching professor title. 

As a result of these changes to APM 235, I write to issue conforming revisions to Campus Academic Personnel Manual (CAPM) 506.235, Acting Professor Series and Regularizations. Besides adding the title of Teaching Professor to the CAPM policy, the relevant sections pertaining to the previous regularization condition of requiring permanent U.S. work authorization have been removed. 

Regularization for Acting Associate Teaching Professor/Acting Associate Teaching Professor or Acting Professor/Acting Teaching Professor titles will no longer require approval of the petition for lawful permanent residency or lawful permanent residency (LPR) card.

The revised CAPM 506.235 is effective immediately. Please consult with the Academic Personnel Office at apo@ucsc.edu if you have any questions.

Sincerely,
Lori Kletzer
Campus Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor
