Do not save Mercury results on shared departmental drives, external hard drives, and cloud storage solutions (view ). Should follow-up analysis be done, save the documents on your individual, work-related drive on (typically the F drive).
Written comments are never disseminated to the McGill community.
Instructors may use intact sets of comments in their Teaching Portfolios.
While the unit head does have complete access to the results, re-appointment, tenure and promotion committees may consider written comments only as submitted by the candidate.
When an adequate response rate is met and the instructor has not objected to access, numerical evaluation results are disseminated to the McGill community.
When reporting on results to others, you may refer to course evaluation results, but only in such a way that it is not possible to discern the identity of individual courses and instructors.
