The Employer may determine the number of weeks and the contact/credit hours which shall be contained in courses covered by this Appendix. The parties recognize that a semester configuration of less than the fifteen/sixteen week norm may be desirable. It is agreed that the fifty-minute contact/credit hour standard may be adjusted to accommodate such alternative semester configuration. Therefore, the parties agree that the alternate semester configuration shall be derived by dividing 750 minutes by the alternative number of weeks, e.g. 750 minutes divided by 14 weeks= 53.5 minutes per week for each contact/credit hour. Grant or Industry related programs which are assigned as part of the regular workload of Faculty Members may necessitate substantially reduced week semesters (such as the Gateway Community College Automotive Program). When such programs are identified, the parties shall meet to resolve any concerns caused by such alternative scheduling. In the course of negotiations, the parties have identified shared concerns regarding the professional responsibilities of teaching faculty beyond those associated with classroom instruction and related duties. The parties recognize that, as professionals, teaching faculty are expected to extend their services to meet other institutional needs related to the mission, goals, and priorities of the college and System. Further, the parties acknowledge that the employer has the responsibility and the right to require the satisfactory fulfillment of appropriate additional responsibilities as part of the teaching workload requirement set forth in Section 8.3.1.3 and to evaluate the quality of services rendered under the provision as part of the employee’s overall evaluation.
