The following contains links to the proposed handbook revisions (March, 1997) that included post-tenure review and the ensuing discussion. It also contains links to the revised proposal (October, 1997), the amendments to it, and the ensuing discussion.
The newest additions contain the proposed policy that was drafted in the spring of 1999 after the Regents announced that if the faculty didn't adopt a post-tenure review policy by the end of the year, one would be forced on it.
