They also recognize that the situation of Clinical faculty is very different from that of University- salaried tenured faculty. They therefore agree to follow the University's Policy for Clinical Faculty (attached as Schedule 1) and the Procedures Manual for Policy for Clinical Faculty (attached as Schedule 2).
b) Appointment of Clinical faculty The Faculty of Medicine will appoint Clinical faculty in accordance with the Procedures Manual for Policy for Clinical Faculty (attached as Schedule 2).

The criteria for appointments are set out in Procedure 2.0, section VI in the attached Schedule 2. It is acknowledged by both the University and the Hospital that Clinical faculty members are intended to be appointed as full-time academic appointees to the University of Toronto; however, there may be specific cases where the Hospital has compelling reasons for the University to grant a part-time Clinical faculty appointment to a Hospital active staff member or equivalent in order to facilitate the provision of clinical services. Part-time appointments will be acceptable only in University departments, or for specific individuals within a specific department, as agreed to from time to time by the University Department Chair, University Xxxx of Medicine, the Hospital Vice- President Education (or equivalent) and the Hospital Department Chief.
