General Standards An Assistant Professor will be competent to teach in a particular field, will be current in the literature of that field, and will seek to meet student needs in both the classroom and in non-classroom environments. However, an Assistant may be a junior member of the academic community, with little professional and/or teaching experience. Furthermore, an Assistant may have little experience in curriculum development, committee work, governance, professional and/or community service, etc. In short, an Assistant Professor generally will be new to tenure-track college teaching. For eligibility for promotion from Assistant to Associate Professor, the candidate must have served a minimum of four (4) years at the rank of Assistant Professor, and must show evidence that he/she has grown professionally and consistently has sought to meet student needs, in both the classroom and in non-classroom environments. A successful candidate for the rank of Associate Professor will have remained current in the field, and will have improved his/her teaching in some demonstrable way. He/she also will have demonstrated professional growth in one or more of the following ways: completion of additional appropriate course work (if applicable), attendance at professional conferences, service on campus and/or District committees, professional and/or community service, or, the production of some creative work. Evidence of professional growth will be drawn from a careful analysis of student evaluations and peer evaluations over a period of time, and from a critical reading of materials submitted by the candidate. For promotion from Associate to Professor, the candidate must have served a minimum of four (4) years at the rank of Associate Professor, and must show evidence that he/she has grown professionally to a point where he/she has mastered both a particular field of knowledge and the teaching of that knowledge. A successful candidate must show evidence that he/she consistently has sought to meet student needs, in both the classroom and non-classroom environments. A Professor should be a senior member of the faculty, one who has such substantial experience, knowledge, and skill that he/she could mentor junior faculty in his/her area of expertise. A Professor will have demonstrated all the same kinds of achievements and attributes necessary for promotion to the Associate Professor rank, but in addition will demonstrate that he/she is a leader in some appropriate sense. Evidence of professional growth and leadership will be drawn from a careful analysis of student evaluations and peer evaluations over a period of time, and from a critical reading of materials submitted by the candidate.

REDUCTION OF STAFF A. The term “seniority” in this Article shall mean length of service as a bus driver with the District.
B. In the event staff reduction becomes necessary, the District will release personnel in the inverse order of their length of service but may give consideration to special qualifications and experience, and minority employment. In the absence of such considerations and exemptions, layoff shall be based on seniority. The ATU shall be provided the opportunity to consult with the District when the necessity of such reductions is determined. Whenever possible, two (2) weeks written notice of layoff shall be given to each employee to be laid off under the provisions of this Article. Persons given such notice may not exercise the paid leave provisions of Article 15, except for sick leave when supported by a doctor’s statement, quarantine, mandatory court appearances or jury duty. This provision applies only to regular employees.
C. Reductions shall be by seniority within a classification; however, the District may assign employees from a higher classification to a lower classification within an employee group. The District shall not assign employees to a lower salary level without a corresponding change in job assignment or responsibility.
D. An employee who rejects an assignment of equal pay and classification shall, by doing so, forfeit all rights under this Article. An employee offered an assignment of lower classification and salary, due to staff reduction, may elect layoff and retain the recall rights provided by this Article.
E. An employee who is terminated due to such reduction in staff shall have preference in filling positions within their employee classification and shall be recalled by the District for employment in such classification based upon seniority with the District; provided, however, they are qualified for the assignment. Employees so terminated shall retain such right of recall for a period of three (3) years from the date of termination. Employees so recalled by the District shall be reinstated with seniority rights accumulated as of the date of their termination. Any employee recalled by the District for a position comparable to the one from which they were terminated and who rejects such an assignment shall relinquish all rights provided in this Article and Agreement.
F. By May 30, the District shall attempt to notify employees, whose work years correspond with the school year, of the intended employment status with the District for the following school year. Failure by the District to provide such notice of changes in staffing plans following issuance of notification will not interfere with the authority of the District to reassign or terminate an employee.
