in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary of the Army can set the titles of the Academy's instructional departments and professors. Changing a title doesn't affect a professor's rank, status, or eligibility for promotion or retirement. Whoever becomes the senior professor in a department automatically becomes its head.

(a) The Secretary of the Army may set the titles of each instructional department and of the professors at the Academy. But changing a department's or officer's title doesn't affect that professor's status, rank, or eligibility for promotion or retirement, and doesn't otherwise disadvantage them. (b) When a permanent professor becomes the most senior professor in a department, that professor automatically becomes the head of that department.
