Common use of WORK UNDER EXTERNAL FUNDING Clause in Contracts

WORK UNDER EXTERNAL FUNDING. Certain externally funded grants provide funds for reassigned time as part of the grant award. It is incumbent upon the faculty member to request and receive permission from both the Chair and the School or College Xxxx to submit a grant proposal that contains a request for reassigned-time funding. Once the grant is awarded, the faculty member will receive the reassigned time, unless the VPAA determines that student enrollment and/or necessary course offerings, plus the failure of a legitimate effort to find replacement faculty, dictate circumstances that require that the faculty member forego his or her reassigned time for the purpose of teaching. Faculty members participating in grant proposals should ensure that those proposals include provisions for reassigned time, if appropriate, to enable reimbursement to the University, and to allow for faculty participation in that reassigned time from normally assigned teaching duties. In cases where reassigned time from teaching duties is not feasible, the faculty member may be provided an administrative "overload" supplemental contract for additional duties incurred with the grant with the following provisos: 1. The administrative "overload" supplemental contract amount will not exceed 15% of the faculty member's academic year contract amount; 2. The School and/or discipline will not be adversely affected by the faculty member's involvement in the project; 3. The funding agency approved the project without reassigned time; and 4. The funding agency allows supplemental overload contracts. Faculty members who receive a 100% externally funded summer session contract (may be up to 3/9 months of the academic year contract) are ineligible for teaching contracts during this period.
