DEFERRED PAYROLL OPTION (12 MONTH PAY PROGRAM)

SUMMER SALARY

During the summer months, faculty on 9-month appointments may be paid for summer school teaching and administrative duties and/or non summer school University summer activities. Salary paid during the summer is not part of the academic year salary nor are benefits authorized for summer employment. Summer Term teaching and administrative support payments are processed through the Summer Term Office. All other administrative, contract course teaching, and research duties require submission of a Temporary Faculty Action Form to the Human Resource Department.

Summer school normally consists of four sessions. University faculty who teach during summer school are paid based on a percentage of their previous academic year salary. Those who perform administrative duties are paid a stipend for serving as acting chair. Faculty who teach and/or perform administrative duties may be paid no more than .2564 (10/39ths) percent of their prior academic year salary for all summer work. Non-University faculty who are hired to teach during the summer are paid according to a salary matrix developed by the University.

University faculty who perform research and other activities not associated with summer school are paid according to the terms of their summer contracts. Faculty who engage in summer research only, or a combination of teaching and/or administrative duties and research, may be paid no more than .3333 (13/39ths) percent of their prior academic year salary for all summer work.

SALARY MATRIX

Full and part-time faculty who teach credit courses in excess of their regular teaching load - evening, off campus and other contractual courses - are paid based on a salary matrix that establishes salary ranges. Part-time faculty in highly competitive areas of instruction may be paid above matrix rates as an exception to policy. Exceptions are considered on an individual basis and take into consideration prevailing pay rates in the job market.
