A Bargaining Unit. Faculty Member whose appointment is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Article T17 shall receive salary and benefits (or notice) in accordance with the following schedule: Service as a Full-Time Faculty Member Salary and Benefits (or Notice) less than nine months three months at least nine but less than eighteen months six months at least eighteen months twelve months at least eighteen months and tenured current academic year plus twelve months at least ten years and tenured current academic year plus twelve months (eighteen months minimum)
A Bargaining Unit. Faculty Member with a continuing appointment may be terminated for lack of need if
(a) enrollment declines extending over at least three academic semesters or
(b) curricular changes have resulted in reduced demand that eliminates the need for more than half of the Member’s annual teaching load (which load shall include “alternate classes that the Member is qualified to teach” pursuant to Section 15.4.1).
15.4.1 Before terminating a Member for lack of need, the University will make a good faith effort to find alternate classes that the Member is qualified to teach. In particular, the University shall assign classes to the Member that would otherwise be taught by persons who are in neither the TET or the NTE Bargaining Unit.
15.4.2 Terminations for lack of need will be done by inverse order of seniority pursuant to Sections 17.6.2 – 17.6.4.3.
15.4.3 For two years following a termination for lack of need, the University will provide the terminated Member the opportunity to teach classes he or she is qualified to teach before assigning the classes to a non-bargaining unit faculty member. For such teaching, the terminated Member will be paid a rate proportionate to pay he or she would have received for teaching the class on a full time basis. Thus, a Member who had an annual teaching load of seven classes would be employed as an adjunct and paid at rate equal to one-seventh of her or his full-time salary for each class taught.
15.4.4 If, within two years of a Member’s termination for lack of need, the University opens a full-time teaching position for which the terminated faculty member is qualified, the terminated Member shall be offered that position.

15.4.6 The Xxxxxxx or designee shall call a meeting with the Xxxx, the Member(s), and a representative of the AAUP-WSU. The purpose of this meeting shall be to reveal and clarify all related facts in the matter and to explore whether there are reasonable alternatives to termination. Additional meetings may occur provided the Xxxxxxx or designee and either the Member or the AAUP-WSU believe that further meetings will serve a useful purpose.
15.4.7 If, following the meeting, the Xxxxxxx believes that termination is necessary, he or she will provide a written statement to the Member(s) and to the AAUP-WSU explaining the basis for the termination(s).

A Bargaining Unit. Faculty Member shall provide notice sufficient to make the University aware that the Member needs FMLA-qualifying leave; and the anticipated timing and duration of the leave.
