1. Part-time/adjunct faculty appointments in the College are made at the discretion of the CAE Dean, in consultation with the applicable Academic Program Coordinator/Director, or Graduate Coordinator, as applicable. Part-time faculty appointments will be made from an established pool of qualified applicants, approved by the CAE Dean, who are not currently on regular appointment at the University. The Academic Program Area Coordinator/Director shall approve applicants for membership in the part-time pool, in consultation with program area faculty, for undergraduate courses in the associated program area. The Graduate Coordinator shall approve applicants for membership in the part-time pool, in consultation with GFAC area faculty, for graduate courses. The Administrative Assistant to the Dean will maintain the faculty pool data. Part-time and adjunct faculty members do not have membership on CAE committees and do not participate in CAE governance.
