Summer Semester Teaching

Regular contracts are for a ten-month term and do not include assurance of Summer Semester teaching. Assignments for teaching in the Summer Semester are generally at the discretion of the depart­ment, with the approval of the appropriate academic Dean or Director and the Vice President for Academic Affairs.

Faculty members will normally be paid ten percent of their ten-month contract salaries for the previous academic year for each course of three semester hours taught in the Summer Semester (or 3 1/3% per credit hour). Faculty members may occasionally be assigned the equivalent number of hours for performing other duties as requested during the Summer Semester.
