9 Faculty Work Hours

Full-time faculty are generally expected to work at least 37.5 hours per week even though job duties may require additional hours that include; commencement and all-employee meetings, professional development days, or as required by supervisors.  Faculty on a regular 10-month appointment are expected to be on campus from the first business day of August through the last business day of May except during scheduled campus holidays.

Faculty are expected to maintain a minimum of six scheduled office hours that match the modality of  courses taught. Faculty are required to provide flexible office hours by appointment to accommodate students’ schedules when necessary.  Other duties including, clubs, academic advising, and committee work are expected of all 10 and 12-month faculty.   Faculty hired on other part-time or virtual appointments may have other student contact and additional duty requirements.  Approval to work virtually beyond approved flex days must be approved by the VPAA prior to scheduling.

Any faculty member engaging in secondary employment must have permission to do so and must complete a secondary employment form.
