          ABDC JQLs and W&L journal rankings will be adopted upon their publication. If the ranking of a journal changes from 
          one JQL or W&L ranking to another, the rank at the time of  publication will apply.  
            
          A faculty member may petition to have a journal not on the approved journal lists ranked by submitting, prior to initial 
          submission, a written petition for approval by the tenured department faculty and chair. If granted, approval applies 
          only to that submission, such that future submissions, even to the same journal, require additional petitioning.
