9.1 Department chairs, after taking into consideration the preference of tenured, probationary and part-time faculty members, shall recommend both partial and full assignments to the appropriate vice president. The vice president shall have final authority for such assignments, including the times and dates on which the assignments are performed. The appropriate vice president shall make a reasonable effort to confer with department chairs or their designated alternates if changes are to be made in courses to be taught, the times of those courses, or the schedule for non‑teaching assignments.
9.2 For teaching assignments, a full intersession load will be defined as 6 LHE. (“LHE” is defined in 6.8.1. For six-week intersessions, this results in a weekly assignment equal to 120% of a weekly assignment in a standard 18-week full semester.)
For non-classroom assignments, a full intersession load will be 5 LHE (180 hours). (For six-week intersessions, this results in a weekly assignment equal to that in a standard 18-week full semester.)
9.3 For teaching assignments, a percentage FTE will be computed by dividing the semester equivalent LHE (Weekly Teacher Hours X Load Factor) of the assignment by 6. For non-classroom assignments, an FTE assignment is defined as the total hours assigned divided by 180.
9.4 Regular Contract Intersession
9.4.1 Unit members who are employed on a tenured, probationary, or temporary contract status in the preceding semester and whose teaching assignment is longer than four weeks will receive intersession pay rates for up to one (1.0) FTE per fiscal year (Summer Intersession through Spring semester). Unit members who are employed on a tenured, probationary, or temporary contract status in the preceding semester and who have non-classroom assignments will receive intersession pay rates for the FTE assignment which they perform not to exceed one (1.0) FTE.
9.4.2 All assignments not included in these provisions will be paid at hourly rates.
9.4.3 A faculty member shall not receive more than one (1.0) FTE during intersessions at contract rates per fiscal year.
9.5 Intersession Assignment Compensation:
For intersessions, pay for both teaching and non-classroom assignments is computed as follows:
Pay = 15% x Annual Salary x FTE Assignment
Any portion of intersession assignments exceeding one (1.0) FTE per academic year will be paid at hourly overload rates.
9.5.1 When a course is offered for a number of weeks different from six, the course will be scheduled as closely as possible (subject to classes beginning and ending on the five‑minute clock intervals) to meet for the same total hours as in the six‑week day version. The FTE assignment and therefore the compensation for these courses will be the same as if the course had been scheduled for six weeks.
9.5.2 Annual Salary is the amount determined by the faculty member’s placement on the preceding semester’s probationary and tenured faculty salary schedule after adjusting for any applicable step movement, and any contractual pay adjustments. Added responsibility increments are not included in the computation of intersession daily rates.
9.5.3 Examples:
A faculty member who teaches a 5 LHE (5 WTH X LDF 1.0) math class in an intersession:
FTE Assignment = 5/6 = 83.33%
Total Compensation = 83.33% x 15% x Annual Salary
For a faculty member who teaches two piano classes totaling 5.25 LHE (6 WTH X LDF 0.875) in an intersession:
FTE Assignment = 5.25/6 = 87.5%
Total Compensation = 87.5% x 15% x Annual Salary
For a librarian who is assigned 35 hours per week for five weeks in an intersession:
FTE Assignment = 175/180 = 97.22%
Total Compensation = 97.22% x 15% x Annual Salary
9.5.4 Unit members employed to teach on an hourly basis in an intersession shall be paid a minimum of one week’s pay for a graded, ungraded or Emeritus class that is canceled after the class convenes.
