Common use of Adjuncts, College Governance and Committees Clause in Contracts

Adjuncts, College Governance and Committees. Adjunct involvement in College Governance and College Committees is recognized as an important component in effective, representative and inclusive governance of the College. The College shall encourage and support adjunct faculty participation in college committees and other college service. In accordance with the College’s appointment procedures and committee composition, Adjuncts may serve on college governance committees, with the exception of search committees, as appointed by the faculty union provided that such appointments to each committee do not represent more than half of the faculty positions on committees, unless otherwise approved by CAC. Adjunct faculty appointed to college governance committees shall receive compensation for time spent in committee meetings based on their step on the 35WW column of the Adjunct pay scale. In addition, in certain circumstances, an institutional need may be identified where it is determined that the expertise of an Adjunct Faculty Member is needed to support the work of a particular committee or work group. In those circumstances, if the need is mutually agreed upon between the Administration and the Union, the participating Adjunct Faculty Member(s) will receive compensation based on their step on the 35WW column of the Adjunct pay scale.
