Multi-Section Course Reduction Clause Samples

Multi-Section Course Reduction. If there is a reduction in the number of Lecturers in a Department or Program due to a lack of sections in a multi-section course to assign, and there is more than one qualified Lecturer in the affected group who has taught the same course (as defined by course number and title) in any one of the two (2) previous academic years, then the reduction in workforce resulting from non-reappointment shall be in order of the Track and Rank of the Lecturer beginning with Track A Lecturer 1A or 1B, then Lecturer 2, then Lecturer 3, and so on. If the decision of whose appointment will not be renewed is between two or more qualified Lecturers in the same Track and Rank, then the Lecturer with the shorter length of service will not have their appointment renewed, provided the reappointed Lecturer has an equal or better performance review. The Union reserves the right to demand effects bargaining in such situations.
