Securing Commitment to Graduate Programs. Where student demand for some University graduate programs requires the scheduling of such courses beyond normal time parameters, individual faculty may commit to the teaching of such courses and the University may enforce such commitment as a last and necessary resort on a reasonable and equitable basis, where such commitment has been or currently is a part of the understanding surrounding the hiring of an individual faculty member; and, as a last and necessary resort on a reasonable and equitable basis, for a three year period where it is required and made as part of a particular successful application for University Scholar/Professor Status, or where it is made part of permissible College scheduling devices which may be negotiated under the provisions of this Agreement. To avoid misunderstandings, the parties recommend that any such commitment be reflected in writing in applications, individual hiring contracts, individual academic plans, College or Departmental guidelines, letters of understanding, etc. as may be appropriate. The overall teaching schedules of such individuals shall be formulated to minimize unusual burdens to the maximum practicable extent.
