Distributing Syllabus: Syllabi and course competencies need to be distributed to students during the first class period. Students who are enrolled, but are not there for the first class session or students who enroll during the official add period should be given a syllabus as quickly as possible.
Record of Syllabus: All adjunct faculty members are to turn in a copy of a syllabus for each class that they teach to the Provost’s office, Building 2, Room 5A. Doing so facilitates handling emergency situations if faculty members are unable to complete their teaching assignments. These syllabi need to be in the Provost’s office by the end of the first week of classes.
Adjunct Instructor Absence (Class Cancellation or Substitute)
Give Notice: When adjunct faculty are unable to meet their classes due to emergencies or illness, either Jim Stick, Provost of Sciences and Humanities, 964-6429, or the appropriate program chair /group leader needs to be contacted immediately. The Provost or the appropriate program chair/group leader determines whether to cancel the class or find a substitute (see section entitled Substitutes for Adjuncts).
Signs: The Provost’s office will take care of putting up a cancellation sign for each class.
Substitutes For Adjuncts
Program chairs or group leaders will either find or assist adjuncts in finding suitable substitutes if decisions are made to hold classes when adjuncts are going to be absent. Adjuncts should not find a replacement without notifying their program chair or group leader of both the absence and replacement.
Room and Schedule Changes
Permanent: Permanent room changes need to be arranged through group leaders and program chairs. In addition, adjuncts need to inform the Provost’s secretary, Glenda Johnson, Ext. 6547, of any permanent room changes so that she can inform students of the new locations or assist people in locating students in emergency situations.
Temporary: Temporary room changes (even for one day) need to be given to Glenda Johnson, Ext. 6547, or Shirley Sandoval, Ext. 6509, in the Provost’s office. This is very important because sometimes students need to be located when there is an emergency.
