The basic purpose of the San Antonio College Tenure Appeals Committee is summarized in DMB Local - Termination of Employment: Tenure as:

"A faculty member shall exhaust College District administrative remedies as provided in this policy for appealing termination before filing suit. A faculty member requesting a hearing shall, within ten business days of receiving the statement of reasons for termination, make the request in writing to the District Director of Human Resources... The hearing committee may affirm the termination or recommend disciplinary action based upon the progressive discipline principles set forth in College District policy and regulations... The Chancellor shall review the (Tenure Appeals Committee's) report(s) and submit the hearing committee's report(s) and decision to the Board along with the Chancellor's recommendation for sustaining or overruling the committee's decision... The Board shall then render a final decision sustaining or overruling the recommendation of the hearing committee."
