appointed to serve in non-instructional positions in the city university
shall be appointed for the probationary period of one year during which

board of trustees or to others for hearings, the conduct of such
hearings, and the report thereof on the basis of which the board of
trustees shall take such action as it deems necessary or advisable.

A person who had acquired tenure in a position with the board of
trustees and who is promoted therefrom to a higher position shall be
fully restored to his lower position and tenure therein in the event his
service is discontinued by the board of trustees during his probationary
period in such higher position; upon restoration to such original
position the time such person served in the higher position shall be
credited for all purposes as if such service had been rendered in the
original position.
