Common use of Adjunct Professor Assignments Clause in Contracts

Adjunct Professor Assignments. Department chairs (or designee) shall provide their current adjunct professors with a written document requesting each adjunct professor’s availability and class assignment preferences for the next planned semester/intersession. This document shall be sent early enough so as to allow at least 10 business days for its return and to permit current adjunct professors to receive their assignments in time to print the results in the class schedule. Adjunct professors will be provided 10 business days to respond to the request for availability and preference of assignment. However, each division retains the right to assign classes to adjunct professors in situations where there are last minute or short-notice class changes. If an adjunct professor misses the 10 business days stated above, that adjunct professor will no longer be under consideration for that assignment but may be considered for other assignments after all other adjunct professors have been assigned. Professors teaching non-credit classes shall be notified if any classes in their discipline extend outside of the academic calendar. These professors shall be given the option to teach the class with or without the extension without prejudice. Assignments of classes shall follow rehire rights priorities as per Article 10.R. An extension is not considered to be a “class” with regard to priority of assignment, evaluation processes, or rehire rights.
