Summer Teaching Appointments (A-18A)
Original Implementation: April 20, 2004
Last Revision: October 30, 2007
The university offers no guarantee of a summer teaching appointment to any faculty member except as specifically contracted. All summer instructional contracts are contingent upon sufficient class enrollments and availability of funding.
Utilizing faculty input and based on student and programmatic needs, each department, school or college is required to adopt a written policy concerning the allocation of summer teaching assignments. These policies will define priority for summer course offerings and set criteria for allocating teaching assignments among the eligible faculty, including the impact of grant funds on summer employment.
These policies and procedures are subject to the approval of the academic dean and provost vice president for academic affairs. Once approved, a copy of the policy will be placed on file with the dean and provost and vice president for academic affairs and distributed to the faculty. The policy must be reviewed by the departments, schools or colleges on no less than five year intervals.
