6.06 Faculty Salaries
Salaries for instructional faculty members are paid according to Subdivision
122.02 Deduction and Transmittal of the Master Agreement, with ten (10)
equal payments authorized during the academic year period extending from
August through May. All regular, authorized withholdings from earnings for
Social Security, federal and state income tax, health-life insurance programs,
retirement plan, association dues, charitable contribution, and other ordinary
reductions occur with each of the ten (10) salary payments.
Changes in faculty salaries are made only at the regular budget-making period
and not at irregular times during the fiscal year, except to correct errors
or to honor contingency commitments. An example of a contingency commitment
is an offer made to a faculty candidate in April with one salary payable
if the terminal professional degree is completed and a lower amount if it
is not completed by the time the appointment begins. The factor of additional
experience and additional training is taken into account at the time of
the annual review of salaries in connection with budget-making, along with
other appropriate criteria. A department and a college can make a contingency
commitment during the fiscal year to increase a faculty member's salary
at budget-making time as a result of change in the experience factor, training
level, or other relevant factor. Such a commitment shall be in writing.Salary
changes must comply with any relevant provisions of a faculty collective
bargaining agreement.
