Underload. In the event a member’s full-time load for the academic year (summer, fall and spring) is less than 2.0 (100% base load each semester), it shall be adjusted within the same fiscal year in which the underload occurs through one of the following. Any method used to make load for the semester applies only to that semester. The process shall be followed in this order: 1. Add late start or early summer sections (ending prior to June 30), given adequate student demand and available funding; 2. Use banked leave hours to cover the deficit (See Article 10.2), with mutual agreement from the faculty member; 3. Completion of other activities which may be assigned by the immediate administrator in consultation with the Vice President. If reassignment activities fall outside of Instructional Faculty Duties (Article 4.1.3) than the assigned activities must be by mutual agreement and with YFA consultation; 4. Bump part-time faculty load (See Article 7.2.a); 5. Reassignment according to Article 13.3.2; 6. Retraining according to Article 21. 4.7.1 Bumping part-time faculty loads will occur if it is not feasible to add late start or early summer options, banked leave options are not mutually agreed upon, or it is not feasible to assign a special project to the faculty member. 4.7.2 In a timely manner after the start of each fall and spring semester, YFA shall be involved of the methods used to repair underloads of 10% or more for any faculty member. Doing so will keep YFA apprised of potential needs for reassignment or retraining. 4.7.3 If underload occurs two or more times in a two-year period, faculty shall discuss opportunities for reassignment, retraining or program viability with the immediate administrator, the appropriate Vice President, and the YFA.
