Development of a Personalized Quantitative Faculty Annual Evaluation System
Faculty annual evaluation is critical for faculty career
development and department success. Our department
developed a quantitative faculty evaluation metrics system
that is more objective, consistent, flexible, personalized,
transparent, and dynamic scoring system. We have
implemented the system for 2 years and the outcomes are
very encouraging in promoting faculty and department
success.Cockrell School of Engineerin
Resistance imparted by vitamin C, vitamin e and vitamin B12 to the acute hepatic glycogen change in rats caused by noise.
The effects of vitamin C, vitamin E and vitamin B12 on the noise-induced acute change in hepatic glycogen content in rats were investigated. The exposure of rats to 95 dB and 110 dB of noise acutely reduced their hepatic glycogens. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and vitamin E (alpha -tocopherol) attenuated the noise-inducedacute reduction in the hepatic glycogen contents. This result suggests that antioxidants could reduce the change via reactive oxygen species. Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) delayed the noiseinduced change, a finding that suggests that vitamin B12 could postpone the acute change via compensating for vitamin B12 deficiency
