College of Arts & Letters
Michigan State University
The College of Arts and Letters’ bylaws articulate the composition of the faculty, the structure of the College, and committees and mechanisms for academic governance, representation, and voice. The bylaws also lay out the processes and criteria for evaluation for promotion, review, and tenure for all academic staff in the College, including tenure-system faculty, non-tenure track faculty, and academic specialists.
The College of Arts and Letters bylaws were most recently updated on December 17, 2025, after a vote of the faculty.
