Associate Lecturer Sample Clauses
The 'Associate Lecturer' clause defines the role, responsibilities, and terms of engagement for an individual appointed as an Associate Lecturer within an academic institution. Typically, this clause outlines the scope of teaching duties, reporting lines, duration of appointment, and any specific requirements such as qualifications or performance standards. By clearly delineating the expectations and obligations of the Associate Lecturer, the clause ensures both parties understand their commitments, thereby reducing the risk of misunderstandings and supporting effective academic operations.
Associate Lecturer. An Associate Lecturer is a superior teacher who has also demonstrated a competent level of service to the University that one would expect from a colleague in whose hands the care of the University has been placed by the granting of tenure. It is because of this trust and because of its desire to give instruction of the highest quality that the University establishes a minimal threshold over which individuals in the Alternate Stream must pass to become part of that trust. In recogni- ▇▇▇▇ of attainment of a level of distinction as a superior teacher whom it wishes to retain, the University grants a promotion to the rank of Associate Lecturer with tenure. It is expected that the Associate Lecturer will maintain, enhance and perhaps broaden his/her capabilities as a teacher over time. As a tenured member of the faculty of York University, an Associate Lecturer is governed by the general rules of the University relating to tenured faculty.
Associate Lecturer. Additionally, the Boston campus may use the title Associate Lecturer, which shall not be a rank among the progressive ranks of other Lecturer titles.
1. Associate Lecturers will normally be appointed at less than 50% FTE on an as-needed basis to temporarily replace faculty who are on leave or who have temporary or indefinite release from some teaching duties; to fulfill instructional needs where the scope and duration of those needs are uncertain or are known to be of limited duration; or to fulfill highly specialized and occasional instructional needs. Associate Lecturers may be appointed from outside the bargaining unit only after the provisions of 21.3 concerning “Additional Work for Part-Time NTT Faculty” have been fulfilled.
2. Associate Lecturers may be appointed at greater than 50% time to meet departmental instructional needs, whether upon original hire or upon reappointment, as long as the provisions of 21.3 concerning “Additional Work for Part-Time NTT Faculty” have been fulfilled. Temporary increases in FTE of this type will not result in a change in title or rate of pay.
3. In such case as an Associate Lecturer has served at 50% FTE or higher for four consecutive semesters, his/her title shall be converted to Lecturer, and effective as of the date of that conversion he/she shall receive a salary increase to the applicable salary floor for Lecturers (unless his/her salary already exceeds that floor). The four semesters of continuous service at 50% or greater in the title of Associate Lecturer that lead to this conversion shall be counted toward the faculty member’s eligibility for continuing appointment. All service in the title of Associate Lecturer shall be counted toward the faculty member’s eligibility for promotion to Senior Lecturer, with the stipulation that an Associate Lecturer converted to Lecturer shall not be eligible for the title of Senior Lecturer without at least three years of full-time equivalent service in the rank of Lecturer. Given that the benchmark for these conversions from Associate Lecturer to Lecturer, as originally bargained and announced to the campus by Memorandum of Agreement, was 6 semesters of service at 50% time or greater, the conversions will be implemented in accordance with the following schedule: • Any Associate Lecturer who has served at 50% FTE or higher for six
