Meritorious activity in this category is identified through considerable activity in positions that acknowledge the faculty member as a leading scholar in his/her field:

  • Special awards for scholarly or professional achievement
  • Journal editor, consulting editor, and editorial boards (name of journal and position; number of manuscripts handled)
  • Grant review panels (name of panel and agency; number of applications reviewed)
  • Other scholarly reviews; for each review list the name of the journal, agency, publisher, etc.; indicate how many reviews were performed for each source: journals, grants (non-paneled), book reviews for publisher.
