RECOGNITION AND DESCRIPTION Sample Clauses
The 'Recognition and Description' clause serves to formally acknowledge and define specific items, rights, or obligations within an agreement. Typically, this clause outlines the particular assets, services, or responsibilities being referenced, ensuring that all parties have a clear and mutual understanding of what is being recognized or described. For example, it may specify the characteristics of intellectual property, the scope of deliverables, or the nature of a party's role. Its core practical function is to eliminate ambiguity by providing precise identification and description, thereby reducing the risk of misunderstandings or disputes regarding what is covered by the contract.

The Bargaining Unit shall include those job titles now in common usage among academic units at UNO; namely, Assistant Instructor, Lecturer, Instructor, Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, Professor, Research Fellow, Senior Research Associate, Research Associate, Community Service Associate, Coordinator, Counselor, Librarian (all specialties), including all academic personnel holding Auxiliary Appointments as defined in this Agreement. Unit Members holding Special Appointments which expire at the end of an academic year and who are reappointed for the succeeding academic year will be deemed to be continuing Unit Members represented by the UNO AAUP. The Bargaining Unit shall also include the University Division counselors who hold faculty rank. Unit Members on continuous appointment who reduce their workload through a University-sponsored partial or phased retirement program will be deemed to be continuing Unit Members represented by the UNO AAUP, and as a result, shall be covered by the terms of this Agreement. Said coverage shall be proportional to the Unit Member’s FTE in the case of salary increases, benefit contributions (unless otherwise dictated by the terms of the partial or phased retirement agreement) and other contract provisions which may be proportionalized. In the case of contract provisions which may not be proportionalized, the Faculty Member will be considered a Unit Member.
