Variable Workload. Under special circumstances and after consultation with the appropriate Xxxx, a faculty member may exercise an option to use a variable load provided that the teaching load dropped for any one semester does not exceed 20 percent (25 percent for English faculty) of a regular fall/spring teaching load. Within a 12-month period, the faculty member must be able to fulfill the full year’s load agreement. If a variable load prevents other faculty members in the same department from making load or selecting overload, the faculty member must make up the teaching load in the summer semester. Selecting a variable load for a semester does not relieve the faculty member of normal full-time responsibilities such as committee work, office hours, etc. A faculty member may not exercise this option in any two consecutive years.
