Class Assignments a. To allow for expansion of the faculty hiring pool and in order to forward the Strategic goals of the College, a defined number of sections shall be reserved for assignment within the division. The number of reserved sections for each division shall be determined by multiplying two (2) sections times the number of departments in the division. (The number of departments will be determined by the RIF units.) After regular full-time faculty assignments and, if requested, one (1) full-time faculty moonlight assignment are filled, Priority Associate faculty within a department will be assigned a minimum fifty percent (50%) load of classes they are qualified to teach but before associate assignments are made, with the exception of sections reserved by divisions that may be assigned to associates to expand the hiring pool.
Class Assignments. The Union President shall be given the opportunity to discuss teacher assignments before they are approved by the Superintendent. The assignment of all classes regardless of level shall be made in the best interest of students taking into consideration the following factors (listed in alphabetical order): Effect of extra-curricular assignments. Experience. Gender, including particularly the assignment to physical education classes. Number of preparations. Qualifications of the teachers, including degree(s), special expertise, and interest. Teacher request.

Class Assignments. Continuing part-time faculty will be assigned courses according to the following sequential criteria with the overall philosophies of providing quality instruction for students, of fairness for members of the bargaining unit, of fairness for other part-time faculty, and recognizing the need for flexibility within the parameters below.
Class Assignments. Priority in course assignments applies to members of the bargaining unit based on seniority level at the College. After loads of full time faculty members are set, the College shall attempt to make assignments to members of the bargaining unit to part-time faculty members who are fully qualified, who have had a continuing history of successful performance at the College and who are available to teach at times that are consistent with the College's scheduling. The department will assign courses to unit members within their department in order of seniority as defined in Article 6.1 and 6.3 of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be construed or applied in such a way as to deprive the College of the right to disregard seniority in the assignment of courses in unusual circumstances or when a particular specialization or expertise is needed. The College shall provide to the Union President or designee an updated seniority list by department prior to the fall semester and the spring semester each year. Based on the above criteria, the College shall make course assignment offerings to Adjunct Faculty members who are available to teach at the times the course selections are offered. Retired full-time faculty with appropriate qualifications and experience will be granted priority assignments. Bargaining Unit members who have developed on-line and blended courses shall be given priority to teach those courses before any other faculty member regardless of that faculty member's status or seniority. Other faculty may teach additional sections but have no intellectual property rights to the course being taught. Other faculty cannot bump the original developer unless the course interferes with a full time faculty making load and all other options have been exhausted. Course assignments for each semester, including summer, will be made by the College according to the following process:
