Faculty Teaching Responsibilities

OP32.06

 

There is a clear expectation across the College of Education that all tenure track faculty will discharge their respective teaching duties fully over the course of an academic year.  In most cases this is a 3/2 regular course load.  When classes do not have suitable enrollment, faculty will be reassigned alternative teaching responsibilities.  In order to maintain equitable teaching loads across the entire college, faculty reassignment will be done in the following priority order:

 

1)      within their regular yearly assignment, adjusting 3/2 to 2/3, replacing adjuncts tentatively contracted to teach in their program and/or team teaching in cases where enrollment is unusually high
 
2)      within their respective program area for courses they are qualified to teach
  
3)      outside the program area for courses they are qualified to teach
 

4)      across the college where a "generalist" preparation qualifies faculty to supervise student teachers, interns, or other generalist teaching responsibilities
