  1. Planning Your SOC in Difficult Budget Times Office of Faculty Affairs Dr. Juana Mora, Director Academic Personnel Rian Medlin, Academic Personnel Analyst

  2. Make decisions based on: • Respect for the faculty & their contribution to your major, program and university. • The needs of the department or program.

  3. “Careful Consideration” Use “careful consideration” of the faculty member’s performance (as evidenced in their PAF), & their entitlement to make your decisions.

  4. What are Entitlements? The word “entitlement” refers to the right of part-time faculty to a “similar assignment” as offered in the prior academic year, if they satisfy several requirements.

  5. How is entitlement to a one-year appointmentestablished? A one-year appointment is established at the beginning of an academic year, if and only if, a part-time faculty member worked two consecutive semesters in the prior academic year and is reappointed for the third consecutive semester.

  6. Example: One-Year Entitlement If the part-time faculty member taught: • Fall 2008 and Spring 2009, or • Spring 2009 and Summer 2009, and is offered units for Fall 2009….they are entitled to a one-year appointment and similar assignment of units as taught in the previous academic year.

  7. How is an entitlement to a 3-year appointment established? A 3-year entitlement is established at the beginning of the academic year, if and only if, a part-time faculty member has worked at least one semester each academic year for the previous six years.

  8. Example: 3-year entitlement If the temporary faculty member taught: Fall semester or Spring semester only, or both Fall & Spring semesters since the 2003-04 AY, they are entitled to a 3-year appointment beginning with the 2009-10 AY with a similar assignment of units as taught in the 2008-09 AY.

  9. All Entitlements are conditional and based on: ...the availability of funds (budget) and student enrollment.

  10. How do you know who is entitled to what? Departments are responsible for tracking entitlement information based on appointment and teaching records.

  11. Tracking Entitlements • The Office of Faculty Affairs prepares & sends a list to the College Dean’s Office each year listing those faculty with new or renewed 3-year entitlements. • The Office of Faculty Affairs does not track one-year entitlements.

  12. We recommend: Excel spread sheet with the following info. to help you track entitlements: • Date of hire. • Terms taught (i.e., Fall, Spring, Summer). • Units assigned (“paid”) each term. • Accrued credit towards 1 year or 3-year appointment.

  13. What if I don’t have enough class sections to meet entitlements? Then you need to make decisions about who is first offered courses, etc. by following the “Order of Assignment”.

  14. The Order of Assignment is asfollows: • First offer course(s) to 3-year full-time. • Next, offer course(s) to 3-year, part-time, up to their entitlement. 3. Next, offer course(s) one-year, part-time, up to their entitlement.

  15. Order of Assignment (cont’d) 4. Next, if you have satisfied all your entitlements, offer units to p-t or f-t temporary faculty who taught in the previous AY (with no entitlement). • Finally, offer any remaining course(s) to temporary faculty as “new or additional work.”
