Faculty Facilities Clause Samples
The Faculty Facilities clause defines the obligations and rights related to the use and provision of physical spaces, equipment, and resources for faculty members within an institution. Typically, this clause outlines what types of facilities—such as offices, laboratories, or classrooms—will be made available to faculty, and may specify standards for maintenance, access, and any limitations on use. Its core practical function is to ensure that faculty have the necessary infrastructure to perform their teaching, research, and administrative duties effectively, thereby supporting the institution’s academic mission and clarifying expectations for both parties.
