Guidelines and Deadlines for Requesting Summer 2006 Instructional Assignments

SUMMER 2006 STAFFING SCHEDULE >>

Faculty assignments for Summer classes are prepared under the guidance of the CCC-AAUP Agreement. For those who may not be familiar with the details, plear refer to the current Agreement, Article 21, page 21.

Staffing begins with full-time tenure-track and tenured faculty completing and submitting a "statment of availability" form. That submission is followed by classes being assigned and any assignment conflicts being resolved at a single meeting of the Deans, with AAUP officer present. After that staffing meeting, assignments are confirmed and proffers generated for faculty signature. Summer pay is calculated off the detail on each proffer.

Below are instructions and deadlines for faculty who wish to be considered for Summer Instructional Assignments. Please note that if an availability form is not submitted as detailed below by any member of the faculty, the assumption is that that person is not available for a summer assignment.

SIGNED PROFFER - FRIDAY, MAY 19, 2006 by 5:00 pm - Deadline for SIGNING and returning PROFFER to your Director/Asst. Dean/Assoc. Dean/Dean/Asst. Dean Evening-Weekend - time and place have been designated during the May 19th Mandatory Day for signing proffers and returning them to Director/Asst. Dean/Assoc. Dean/Dean/Asst.

DIRECTIONS FOR REQUESTING SUMMER ‘06 INSTRUCTIONAL ASSIGNMENTS

• Use the Summer 06 Class Schedule Booklet to choose your summer instructional assignments. The Summer Schedule Booklet is currently available on-line and in hard copy on the campuses.
  
  
• Complete and return the "Statement of Availability" form to notify your Director/Asst. Dean/Assoc. Dean/Dean whether or not you wish to accept instructional assignments this summer.
  
  
• One form is sufficient for all courses, even though you may be requesting assignments in more than one subject area or on one or more campuses.
  
  
• If you do wish to accept instructional assignments this summer, complete the form for all classes for which you would like to be considered for summer assignment. List your assignment requests in priority order, one assignment to a line, and with a single priority number for each assignment.
  
  The completed form must include the following:
  
  
  • all sections at all on- and off-campus locations, including those at the Corporate College site at Westlake that you would consider accepting without regard to the ultimate potential pay status of the sections (pro-rata, part-time, or a combination of the two).
  • all Distance Learning courses (Distance Learning includes, telecourses, WEB courses, etc) you wish to be assigned. In listing the Distance Learning courses on the Availability Form you will not be obligated to accept any or all of the assignments in your request.
  • all distinct section numbers (CRN), each on a separate line, as in some cases of labs and lectures.



• Please note that off-campus assignments paid at the pro-rata rate, including those offered at Corporate College site in Westlake, are limited to one or more courses up to a maximum of 6 ESUs and that additional on- or off-campus requests made after the deadline cannot be considered unless they are for sections which are added after the deadline.
  
  
• Guidelines utilized for staffing of Distant Learning courses will be in accordance with the CCC-AAUP Agreement Article 21, Section 21.02, paragraph (B) (6).
