Common use of Temporary Increase Clause in Contracts

Temporary Increase. A class is temporarily increased by the department chair above a recommended and approved cap by no more than ten (10) students or twenty percent (20%), whichever is less. When department chairs make decisions regarding temporary increases in class size, they will take into account a variety of factors, which may include the nature of the class, the physical facilities available, the concerns of the instructor, and the needs of students. For one or more of these reasons, a chair who finds it necessary to temporarily increase a class size may decide to increase it by less than the maximum temporary increase provided herein, for example, for certain classes, an increase of more than three students might be found unfeasible.
