COLLEGE SERVICE FORM - XIII-E5
FACULTY REQUIREMENT ONLY:
The 2006-2009 Contract has a new college service requirement that will
be implemented this semester. Faculty are required to submit a
list of college service activities to be performed during the
semester. This list is completed in section 1 of form (Form
XIII-E5) and submitted to the immediate supervisor no later than
October 15 for the fall semester and February 15 for the spring
semester. Section 2 and section 3 will be completed at the end of
the semester and submitted on the last day of classes.
College service activities may include:
-
Serving as advisor to student activities;
-
Serving on governance, ad hoc, college standing committees, system-wide
task forces or committees, or labor-management committees;
-
Preparing grant proposals;
-
Participating in college, division, department or other related college meetings and/or activities;
-
Participation in the improvement and development of academic programs and resources, including recruitment.
-
Serving as a department chair/coordinator pursuant to Article XX and college-wide coordinators.
If faculty receive reassigned time to perform non-instructional
activities such as curriculum development, professional development
activities, or administrative (non-managerial) duties, then these
activities should be listed on the College Service Activities.
NB: When the 2000-2003 Contract was negotiated with an increase in
instructional workloads, the MCCC Negotiating Team stated that there
was an understanding at the bargaining table that attending department
meetings, division meetings, and all-college meetings; and serving on
one (1) committee would fulfill the contractual obligation of being
available for college service activities for an average of four (4)
hours per week. This requirement has not changed in the 2003-2006
Contract or in the 2006-2009 Contract. In addition, the MCCC
negotiators have made it clear that the purpose of the submission of
this new list of college service activities to be performed is to
provide the immediate supervisor with knowledge of your planned
activities for the upcoming semester. The intent was not to increase
college service workload, not to begin counting hours, minutes, or
seconds, and not to obtain prior approval. Finally, at the end of the
semester, the immediate supervisor will probably hold you accountable
for the completion of all activities that you list.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
