Unavailability of Sections. Teaching Adjuncts: The College need not make a good faith offer to an otherwise eligible adjunct when there are insufficient available courses or classes which the adjunct is qualified to teach. [This may occur due to such factors as a reduction in the number of courses or classes offered, discontinuance of course offerings or areas of instruction, other changes in curriculum or employment of full-time faculty.] If the College does not make a good faith offer due to a lack of available courses or classes, it will so notify the affected adjuncts and the Union as soon as practical in order that the Union may communicate with affected adjunct faculty. In such courses or classes, the College will make reasonable efforts to first offer assignments to adjuncts eligible for the good faith offer prior to making offers to adjuncts who are not eligible for the good faith offer. Failure to teach due to the unavailability of courses or classes counts toward a break in service. Librarian/Counselor Adjuncts: The College need not make a good faith offer to an otherwise eligible adjunct when there are insufficient clock hours available for an adjunct’s primary assignment. [This may occur due to such factors as a reduction in the number of clock hours offered, or other changes in curriculum or employment of full-time faculty.] If the College does not make a good faith offer due to a lack of available clock hours, it will so notify the affected adjuncts and the Union. In such cases, the College will make reasonable efforts to first offer assignments to adjuncts eligible for the good faith offer prior to making offers to adjuncts who are not eligible for the good faith offer. Failure to counsel or provide librarian services due to the unavailability of clock hours counts toward a break in service.
