ADJUNCT FACULTY AND SUBSTITUTES Clause Samples

The "Adjunct Faculty and Substitutes" clause defines the terms and conditions under which non-permanent teaching staff, such as adjunct instructors and substitute teachers, may be employed by an institution. It typically outlines the scope of their duties, the duration of their appointments, and any limitations on their roles compared to full-time faculty. For example, the clause may specify that adjuncts are hired on a semester basis or that substitutes can only teach in the absence of regular faculty. This clause ensures clarity in employment arrangements and helps the institution address staffing needs flexibly without committing to long-term contracts.
