Faculty Member Annual Report

NOTE:
The following is a blank (reformatted) annual report that a faculty member has to file at the end of each academic year. The purpose of presenting it here is to provide you with some inkling of what the duties of a faculty member are in a research university, such as U.B. Too often there is the mistaken assumption by students (and the public at large) that teachers here at U.B. don't do anything else, but teach.
