POLICY 4.6.3.1.5 - Teaching Load
The teaching load for full-time faculty will normally 24 equated hours per nine-month contract year, balanced as evenly as possible between terms. Under special circumstances and with prior arrangement, the teaching load may be spaced across all three terms in the academic year.
The 24 equated hours are normally considered 75 percent of the total annual load.
The remaining 25 percent of the total annual load, or the equivalent of eight equated hours, consists of responsibilities beyond teaching such as those defined below.
When faculty members participate in the full range of responsibilities beyond teaching and such participation is documented to the dean, teaching assignments beyond 24 equated hours per nine-month contract year will be compensated at the normal overload rate.
Faculty members on twelve-month contracts, in addition to the responsibilities described above for Terms I and II, teach or perform assigned responsibilities during summer term (Term III) equivalent to six equated hours plus responsibilities beyond teaching equivalent to two equated hours. The total annual responsibility of a faculty member on a twelve-month contract is 30 equated hours of teaching plus the equivalent of 10 equated hours of responsibilities beyond teaching.
