and evaluating University activities such as Foundation Day, University Week, Commencement
Exercises, and other curricular and co-curricular activities sponsored by the University.
4.6.2. Communications requiring the involvement of a faculty member in any University ad-hoc
committee should be coursed through the Dean, then to the faculty member concerned. If a
faculty accepts an invitation to be a member of an ad-hoc committee, the faculty member
should make the necessary arrangement in order not to miss his/her class. In case the faculty
member has missed a class, he/she should conduct make-up classes.

4.7. Receiving and Accepting Invitations for Extension Services
4.7.1. Faculty members are allowed to accept invitations and engagements to speak in symposiums,
act as judges in competitions, attend LET reviews, and others, outside the University as long as
these activities do not conflict with their duties in the University. As much as possible, the
invitation should not disrupt the normal flow of classes, otherwise faculty members should
arrange make-up classes with their students. The number of accepted engagements and
invitations outside the University should not exceed 20% of the total number of days in a
semester.
4.7.2. Formal letters of invitations from outside the University should be coursed through the

of any political, religious, or other partisan interests.
