Summer School Teaching
(according to the 2007-2011 Agreement between the State and the AFT-Article XI)
1. Provided there is no time conflict, full-time employees shall have priority consideration in appointment to teach regular summer session courses within their individual competency, except in unusual circumstances.
2. Assignments to full-time employees to teach summer session courses shall be voluntary and consistent with normal College/University procedures. Such summer session assignments shall be distributed on an equitable basis.
3. Colleges/Universities will send out written summer session assignment agreements to full-time faculty by April 1, which must be returned by April 15 unless other dates are established by local negotiations. Additional assignments shall be offered as they become available. If an agreement is made to assign a full-time employee to teach a summer session course which is canceled, 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.
4. 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 session shall be considered faculty members.
5. Salary for summer session assignments shall generally be paid on a half-session basis or for periods of three (3) weeks if the session is six (6) weeks or more, provided that the final payment shall not be made until the completion of the session.
6. The summer session rate per semester hour credit for State College/University employees for courses that begin on or after July 1, 2007 shall be established at the following minimum rate:
| 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | |
| Professor, Associate Professor, Librarian I | $1150 | $1200 | $1250 | $1300 |
| Assistant Professor, Instructor, Librarian II | $1100 | $1150 | $1200 | $1250 |
| Professional Staff | $1100 | $1150 | $1200 | $1250 |
7. Employees who have not been reappointed for the succeeding academic year are not covered by these provisions. If an individual who is not reappointed for the succeeding academic year is given a summer session contract, he/she will be treated as an adjunct for the summer session and will have no rights under this Agreement as a summer session employee.
8. At the discretion of the College/University, part-time employees may be offered summer session courses. Interested part-time employees should make application to the appropriate College/University designee.
