1. Contracts/Schedules

2. Instructional Loads for Part-time Faculty
   1. Part-time academic faculty are restricted by the Board of Regents to less than 10 credits of instruction or 19.5 contact hours per semester.
   2. Faculty teaching more than 9.9 credit hours or 19.5 contact hours per semester but less than full time will be assigned a workload proportional to a full-time contract.
   3. Part-time faculty teaching one-credit science labs, or other one-credit courses where the contact hours equal that of a 3-credit lecture class are compensated by the formulas given in Section 2,C,3, not credits. This should not impact the maximum of 9.9 credit hour/ 19.5 contact hour load as stated above.
   4. There shall be a reduced class size of 8 students for nursing clinical hours.
   5. Lecture hours are 50 minutes in duration. Practicum, lab, and clinical hours are 60 minutes in duration.
   6. Faculty may be asked to teach both days, evenings and weekends as well as in different campus/rural center locations.
   7. Class scheduling is driven by the needs of full-time, degree-seeking students. If a division offers a degree, the division undertakes an obligation to assure that students can complete the degree in a timely manner by attending college full time. Academic Directors will consult with lead faculty, full-time faculty members in the discipline, the academic vice president, the director of institutional research, and the director of admissions and records to develop schedules of class offerings that meet student needs. Academic Directors, in collaboration with faculty members, will then develop appropriate courses and loads so that teaching faculty meet student needs.
   8. Any arrangement accepted by the instructor, recommended by the Academic Director, and approved by the academic vice president in consultation with the dean shall be a part of this workload policy if the agreement is written and enacted prior to the service being rendered.
   9. Part-time faculty may be released from their appointment at the discretion of the Academic Director for any of the following reasons:
      1. The teaching load of a full time faculty member not teaching the minimum expected load as stated in Section II.B.1 of the Academic Faculty Workload Policy needs to be adjusted by the addition of this class.
      2. Enrollment in the class is not high enough.
      3. Other reasons as determined by the Academic Director to be in the interest of the college.
