Course Cancelations and Course Reassignments. The University may cancel classes assigned to NTT faculty at the start of an academic semester, on the following terms: In the event of cancelation of a course assigned to an NTT faculty member on continuing appointment as part of his/her standard continuing-appointment load, the University is obligated to assign alternate work to replace the canceled course. The affected NTT faculty member will continue to be paid at the level of his/her continuing appointment. If alternate work is not available, the NTT faculty member will be expected to teach an additional course in a subsequent semester to make up for the reduced load. In the event of cancelation of a course assigned to a Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, Senior Lecturer II, or Clinical Professor, all ranks, who is not on continuing appointment, or in the event that a cancelation necessitates reassignment of a course from a non-continuing NTT in the titles listed above to a continuing NTT, the University will make every effort to assign alternate work, inclusive of course reassignment from an Associate Lecturer/Clinical Associate Lecturer; if alternate work cannot be found, the non-continuing NTT’s percentage of appointment will be decreased accordingly for that semester. In the event of cancelation of a course assigned to an Associate Lecturer/Clinical Associate Lecturer, the University will have no obligation to seek or assign alternate work, and course cancelation will result in a reduction of workload for that semester. In the event that the Administration cancels or reassigns a course assigned to a non-continuing NTT faculty member after the first scheduled meeting of that class, the University shall pay a course cancelation fee equal to 8.0% of the scheduled compensation for that course; however, if the NTT faculty member whose course was canceled or reassigned is reassigned to teach another course before the end of the add-drop period, no such cancelation fee shall be paid.
