FACULTY COORDINATORS Clause Samples
The FACULTY COORDINATORS clause designates specific individuals or roles within an academic institution who are responsible for overseeing and managing a particular program, project, or partnership. Typically, this clause outlines the duties of the coordinators, such as serving as the main point of contact, facilitating communication between parties, and ensuring compliance with agreed-upon procedures. By clearly identifying faculty coordinators and their responsibilities, the clause helps streamline administration and accountability, reducing confusion and ensuring effective collaboration.
FACULTY COORDINATORS. When College administration identifies a faculty coordinator role to provide leadership for a college goal, the following shall guide the selection and duration of the faculty in the role.
1. All faculty coordinator positions shall have a written job description. The job description will include associated responsibilities, amount of reassigned time or stipend, and appropriate administrator for the role. The appropriate administrator provides guidance and support for the faculty coordinator role, but does not replace the identified administrative supervisor for the faculty member in their primary faculty role.
2. All positions anticipated to last more than one year in length shall have a selection process, facilitated by Human Resources, as long as more than one faculty member may be qualified for the role.
3. The vice president for instruction or appropriate administrator will make the final selection.
4. For positions without a clearly defined timeline (e.g., grant-funded positions during the duration of a grant), any term limits for the role would be mutually agreed upon by the administration and the faculty union at the time in which the position is posted.
5. All faculty coordinators will collaboratively develop a review process for evaluating performance with the appropriate administrator for the role and conduct a review by the end of the second year in the coordinator role.
6. Coordinators may be selected for additional terms, following a selection process at the conclusion of a term, if a defined term exists.
