Matters of Department/School Governance and related procedures

Preamble

The Handbook of the Department of Pan-African Studies describes the procedures and policies governing the life of the Department. Where appropriate, the Handbook quotes specific passages from the University Policy Register and, for additional information, refers also to the Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs) for full-time tenure track (TT) and non-tenure track (NTT) faculty. Each full-time faculty member is provided by the University with a copy of the appropriate CBA. Any conflict between the policies stated in the Handbook and those of the College, the University Policy Register, the CBAs and other official policies of the University shall be resolved in favor of those documents. In this document the meaning of the phrase full-time faculty shall be determined by the position and stipulations stated in the individual contract, and shall refer both to full-time tenure track or tenured faculty and to full-time non-tenure track faculty. The term full-time TT faculty shall refer exclusively to tenure track or tenured faculty, and full-time NTT faculty to full-time non-tenure track faculty. The term regular faculty includes only those appointed full-time with the rank of Instructor, Lecturer, Associate Lecturer, Senior Lecturer Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Professor.

Suggestions for revisions to the Handbook may be initiated at any time by any member of the Department. Whenever major modifications in the CBAs or Department, College and University policies occur, during the following academic year the Chairperson, in consultation with the Faculty Advisory Committee (FAC), shall review and revise the Handbook. The revised Handbook shall be submitted to a vote of the full-time faculty before the Chairperson forwards it to the Dean. Whenever the FAC makes minor changes in major policies, the Handbook may be changed accordingly without altering the content of the full document. All changes and revisions must conform to the CBAs for full-time TT and NTT faculty and the University Policy Register. Such changes and revisions must also be approved by the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences in accordance with the provisions of said CBAs.
Vision/Mission Statement and History

Our vision is to become an outstanding department within ��, one that has an international reputation for leadership in the study and development of global Africa through multiple scholarly perspectives in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences and professional services. We strive to accomplish our vision by embracing rigorous academic inquiry, flexibility, adaptability, innovation, community involvement and faculty and staff team work with a constant awareness that a focus on students is vital to our department’s success.
Mission Statement

The Department of Pan-African Studies (DPAS), including its units, the Center of Pan-African Culture (CPAC), the African Community Theatre, the Communications Skills and Arts Division and the Institute of African American Affairs, is dedicated to the study and teaching of global Africa, which comprises the African continent and its Diaspora throughout the world—the Caribbean, the Americas, Europe, Asia and the Pacific. The unifying purpose and theoretical approach of Pan-African Studies is an examination of Africa and her people from an African-centered viewpoint. This theoretical perspective presupposes an intrinsic value in knowing African epistemologies and world views as well as the interrelationship between academic inquiry and the creative arts.

Goals

The Department of Pan-African Studies exists to serve a vital need both within the �� community and beyond. It offers an interdisciplinary undergraduate major leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree, which covers the full spectrum of the Pan-African experience, with emphasis on excellence in teaching and research. The major and minor in Pan-African Studies are structured on a holistic and interdisciplinary approach, which provides in-depth exposure to history, culture, language, philosophy, education, literature, sociology, creative and performing arts, music, community development and other disciplines as they relate to peoples of African descent everywhere.

In addition, the Department seeks to meet the educational needs of students who want to engage in rigorous scholarship about Peoples of African descent, First Nation Peoples, Latinx Peoples and other Communities of Color. Thus, it has a strong outreach component through programs and events sponsored by the Institute for African American Affairs (IAAA), the Center of Pan-African Culture (CPAC), the Communication Skills and Arts Division (CSA), and the African Community Theatre (ACT), as well as through various courses, workshops and liaisons with other organizations and units across campus. The Department seeks to administer consistently several programs specifically designed to serve students-of-color as well as the general student population of Northeastern Ohio and beyond.

The Department of Pan-African Studies acknowledges the following pedagogical imperatives:

To develop a holistic educational approach which integrates various areas of knowledge and to establish viable working relationships with related University departments and programs;

To adhere to a structure allowing the Department and its students to become involved in real-world educational experiences designed in part to increase the contact time each faculty or staff member spends with individual or groups of students;

To view people in the international African community as cohort communities and to create opportunities (internships, field trips, foreign travel, study and work programs, etc.) that allow students to learn by doing;

To fashion activities that encourage students and their families to come together to address issues informing African and African American family life and to celebrate the family as the foundation of a healthy community;

To establish for faculty, staff and students high standards in teaching, learning, language competence, research and publication, community and university service, and citizenship in a complex world;

To foster qualities that are prerequisite for personal fulfillment, career success, and responsible citizenship in a culturally diverse, rapidly changing and increasingly global society;

To evaluate the Department’s goals, mission and effectiveness on a regular basis;

To promote excellence in academic and scholarly work among students and faculty in the Pan-African World;

To promote excellence and creativity in the Kent Pan-African community and elsewhere in Ohio and abroad through the DPAS Cultural Center and its programming.

Department History/Oscar Ritchie Hall

In the late1960s African American students at �� demanded through the Black United Students (BUS) organization that the university curriculum significantly reflect their historical and contemporary experience. This activism resulted in the creation of the Institute for African American Affairs (IAAA) in 1969, the Center of Pan-African Culture (CPAC) in 1970, and in 1976 the Department of Pan-African Studies (PAS) which is still referred to as “the house that BUS built.”

The building in which the Department of Pan-African Studies is located was dedicated in 1977 to the late Dr. Oscar Ritchie, who in 1947 was the first black faculty member to be hired at �� or any other predominantly white university in Ohio. Since 1997, the Department has occupied all three floors, including the return of the African Community Theatre from Franklin Hall in 1998. The University ordered the complete renovation of the facility during 2007-2008. On October 9, 2009, President Lefton rededicated the facility in honor of Dr. Oscar W. Ritchie (1909-1967). Dr. Ritchie was the first African American to teach in Ohio’s public university system. The facility was first dedicated in his honor in 1977.

The Department has had a relatively short existence on the �� campus, 40 years; and, students and faculty come to the campus unaware of the history of the Department and its constituent ancillary academic entities—the Center of Pan-African Culture, the Institute for African American Affairs, the African Community Theatre and their originators, the Black United Students (BUS). To address this historical issue, the Department has established as policy that all classes, particularly those having high freshman and sophomore enrollments, devote the second week of classes to a discussion of how and why such institutions developed, not only on the KSU campus; but also on hundreds of college and university campuses across the nation. A videotaped presentation has been prepared for this and related purposes. These discussions also remind students that the Department represents ��’s first institutional attempt to diversify its curricular and instructional structures.

Ad Hoc Reappointment, Tenure and Promotion Sub-Committee

The Department Chairperson presides over this Sub-Committee of the Faculty Advisory Committee which is composed exclusively of members of the tenured faculty. Owing to the small size of the Department, this committee has been constituted as the Committee of the Whole, i.e., all tenured full-time members of the Department.

All recommendations concerning reappointment, tenure and promotion are initiated in the Sub-Committee. No member of this Sub-Committee shall be present when the Sub-Committee deliberates or votes on his or her own tenure or promotion, nor shall a member of the Sub-Committee of a lower rank deliberate or vote on the tenure or promotion of a faculty member in a higher rank or of a spouse or relative.

(See also Section VII, L, 1.)

Black Experience Committee

The Black Experience Committee is the primary advisory and recommendatory body to the Departmental Chairperson on matters dealing with the Black Experience courses. This Committee works very closely with the Curriculum Committee in making long- range academic decisions for the Black Experience courses, including selection of texts and other matters related to these courses. Members of this committee will be chosen from both tenured (tenure-track) and non-tenure track faculty who teach the Black Experience courses. The chair will be a tenured or tenure-track faculty member and will be appointed by FAC annually.

Handbook Oversight Committee

The Handbook Oversight Committee is the primary advisory and recommendatory body to the Departmental Chairperson on matters dealing with the interpretation and implementation of the content of the Handbook. Members of this committee will make sure that the content and intent are adhered to. Members of this committee will be chosen by the FAC from tenured, tenure-track and non-tenure track faculty. A tenured or tenure-track faculty, will serve as chair and will be appointed by FAC annually.

Divisions and Programs

Institute for African American Affairs (IAAA)

The IAAA was established in 1969 as a result of protests by Black United Students (BUS). This committee assumes responsibility for assisting collaborative research and program development and implementation, as well as establishing programmatic relationships with various bodies in and surrounding ��. The IAAA also publishes Kitabu and The African American Affairs Monograph Series, which reports the results of IAAA and related research.

The Center of Pan-African Culture (CPAC)

Recognizing that the cultural contributions of blacks have been too long ignored in our society, CPAC, created in 1970, promotes the cultural traditions of Pan-African peoples. It provides opportunities and facilities for the exposition of art forms—painting, sculpture, oral and written literature, poetry, music, dance, theatre—as well as other cultural modes of expression that define people of African descent. Its mission is to complement the academic activities of the Department and to provide a living manifestation of the past and present cultural lives of people in the Pan-African world.

The Communications Skill and Arts Division (CSA)

CSA came into existence in 1971 as a joint effort of the Department of Pan-African Studies and the Department of English. Its purpose is to maintain the PAS College Writing program in order to effectively fulfill specific instructional needs of a predominantly African American constituency. The content of the CSA courses is intended to teach critical thinking and impart the writing skills necessary for academic success, while addressing specific issues in the Pan-African experience. Since the traditional College Writing classes can not be expected to tailor their content to this experience, CSA seeks to help eliminate those linguistic as well as cultural barriers which black students may encounter at a predominantly white institution.

The African Community Theatre (ACT)

ACT promotes exposure to and knowledge of the theatrical heritage of peoples of African descent and encourages the participation of students and area residents in the production of Pan-African theatre events. Black theatre came into existence with the advent of the IAAA (now the Department of Pan-African Studies) in 169-70 and the development of the Black Drama Workshop (1973) . In 1981, the workshop took a new direction and evolved into a major theatrical component of DPAS which is now referred to as the African Community Theatre.

Special Curricular Programs and Facilities

The Pan-African Festival

The purpose of the Pan-African Festival, usually held in late April/early May, is to provide a week-long or weekend experience that can be shared by all on the �� campus and in the surrounding communities. The Festival affirms our common heritage and determination to continue to educate ourselves. The Festival is planned and executed by the Center of Pan-African Culture in collaboration with the Black United Students, campus organizations and community residents.

The Henry Dumas Resource Center

This is a departmental research library and reading room for faculty, staff, students and community. It was named after Henry Dumas, an African American poet and short-story writer. Henry Dumas (July 20, 1934-May 23, 1968) was a brilliant African American writer and poet. Dumas was born in Sweet Home, Arkansas in 1934 and he lived there until the age of ten, when he moved to New York City; however, he always kept with him the religious and folk traditions of his hometown. In Harlem, he attended public school and graduated from Commerce High School in 1953. After graduating, he enrolled in the Air Force and was stationed at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas where he met future wife, Loretta Ponton. The couple married in 1955 and had two sons, David in 1958 and Michael in 1962. Dumas was in the military until 1957, at which time he enrolled at Rutgers University but never attained a degree. In 1967, Dumas began work at Southern Illinois University’s Experiment in Higher Education in East St. Louis. At EHE, Dumas was a teacher and counselor. It was here that he met fellow teacher and poet, Eugene Redmond, forming a close collaborative relationship that would prove so integral to Dumas’ posthumous career.

Departmental Publications

The Department, through the IAAA, publishes its monthly newsletter KITABU which circulated nationally. The African American Affairs Monograph Series projected to become a referred scholarly journal, published each spring semester. Even though KITABU has an internal-use value, IAAA seeks to print articles and announcements of value to a general audience as well. The Department encourages faculty, staff and graduate and undergraduate students to submit articles, creative writings, reviews, etc. to either of these publications.
