Common use of Summer Term Clause in Contracts

Summer Term. Section 1. Graduate students who do not require academic credit to satisfy program or degree requirements, or who find that needed or required courses are not offered in summer term, may be appointed to summer term GTFs. Those who receive such summer GTF appointments are exempt from the graduate credit enrollment requirement of Article 21. Section 2. The workload or FTE for summer term appointments will be specified in the summer section GDRS (see Article 9, Section 4). During the summer term, GTFs may be appointed on overload at an FTE level that exceeds .49 with the approval of the ▇▇▇▇ of the Graduate School. The University will endeavor to make equivalent appointments throughout the University for comparable summer assignments. This agreement establishes minimum pay levels, but not the maximum pay levels that Departments or employing units may pay GTFs during the summer term. Section 3. During the summer term GTFs shall be compensated in the same manner as they are during the three other terms (see Article 21, Section 1).
