REDUCTION IN FORCE/SENIORITY. The University may enact a reduction in force for reasons of financial exigency or for the discontinuance of a faculty position(s), program(s), or department(s). Notification of the possible need for a Reduction in Force should be given as early as possible in order that the affected faculty might have adequate time to seek employment elsewhere or undergo training in order to qualify for another assignment within the institution. Before terminating an appointment in accord with this Article, the institution, with faculty participation, will make every effort to place the faculty member concerned in another suitable position or location within the institution. The appointment of a faculty member with tenure will not be terminated in favor of retaining a faculty member without tenure, except in extraordinary circumstances where a serious distortion of the academic program would otherwise result. Nor will a faculty member with greater seniority be terminated in favor of a faculty member with less seniority except under the circumstances just mentioned. If a non-tenured faculty member is essential to the existence of a particular program, and a tenured faculty member's duties could be considered non-essential or possibly be covered by another person within the department or institution, it will be the responsibility of the School/College Xxxx and/or Vice President for Academic Affairs to make a recommendation not to follow seniority. Any such recommendation will be sent to the Executive Committee of the Faculty Association for review and concurrence. Only with such concurrence will any deviation from seniority be allowed.
