3C. Full-Time Faculty Additional Assignment: Department Chair Employment Status

Department chairs are issued a modified 11-month faculty contract on the College’s administrative calendar and report to the Dean of their respective schools.

CWI supports finding a way to allow department chairs to return to a regular full-time teaching faculty position. For department chairs who desire to return to teaching, CWI will make all reasonable efforts to transition a department chair to a regular full-time, rank-eligible faculty position.

Refer to INST 100 - Joint Faculty Appointments, HR 000 - At Will Employment and Retention Policy, and HR 110 - Employee Conduct Policy, and HR 340 - Full Time Faculty Compensation Policy in the CWI Policies and Procedures Manual for detailed policies.
