Appointments for Lecturers. A. Lecturers I, II and III will be appointed to a specific academic department, or where the department structure does not exist, to a specific school. Although Lecturers may hold appointments in more than one academic department or school, a single department (or school in those units without departments) will be deemed to be the Lecturer’s primary Home Department. Secondary appointments to other departments will be limited to the semester in which the Lecturer is teaching. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article, nothing shall preclude the department chair or xxxx/director, at his or her sole discretion, from making an assignment to a Lecturer for a full academic year. For Lecturer IIs and IIIs (who are eligible for one-year appointments as set forth in Article 14.1 above), a Home Department, with prior approval by the Xxxx, may make an assignment for two or more academic years. Each semester and summer, the relevant unit (academic department, colleges or schools or Continuing and Distance Education (CDE)) shall determine which courses need to be filled by part-time faculty and when such courses shall be offered. Such assignments shall be documented by a letter of appointment as outlined in Section 14.1 of this Article.
