New Jersey City University Faculty Handbook
PERSONNEL POLICIES, PROCEDURES, AND PRACTICE

 

Summer Session Contracts

Provided there is no time conflict, full-time employees shall have priority consideration in appointments to teach regular summer session courses within their individual competency, except in unusual circumstances.

Assignments to full-time employees to teach summer sessions courses shall be voluntary and consistent with normal university procedures. Such summer session assignments shall be distributed on an equitable basis.

Colleges/Universities will send out written summer sessions assignment agreement to full-time faculty. If an agreement is made to assign a full-time employee to teach a summer course which is cancelled, he or she shall have priority consideration for another available teaching or non-teaching assignment within his or her competency. If cancellation of a summer course assignment is likely, the affected full-time employee shall be notified in advance.

For the purpose of this provision, full-time employees scheduled to commence their initial faculty appointment at the beginning of the academic year following the summer sessions shall be considered faculty members.
