KENTUCKY STATE UNIVERSITY BOARD OF REGENTS
Approval of Held Tenure and Promotion Candidates
In the spring of 2022, the Tenure and Promotion process was suspended. That action was taken by the former Interim President following the Board of Regents' approval. Currently, there are three (3) faculty members employed at Kentucky State University who were impacted by this action. President Koffi C. Akakpo reactivated the Tenure and Promotion process in the fall of 2024. The first action taken in the process is to approve the candidates that were held in limbo due to the suspension.
If this item is approved, the three candidates will receive tenure status and/or promotion. The change in rank is accompanied by an increase in salary.
President Koffi C. Akakpo and Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs Michael D. Dailey recommend the approval of a change in rank for the following candidates who successfully completed the tenure and promotion process.
Dr. Joytica Batra – tenure and promotion – change in rank to Associate Professor
Ms. Dantrea Hampton – tenure and promotion – change in rank to Associate Professor
Dr. Swataga Bannerjee – promotion – change in rank to Professor
Approve the promotion and/or tenure status of the held tenure and promotion candidates.
