Continuous Appointments Clause Samples

The Continuous Appointments clause establishes that certain appointments or engagements will automatically renew or continue without interruption unless specific action is taken to terminate or modify them. In practice, this means that a service provider or contractor remains engaged under the same terms for successive periods, often until one party provides notice to end the arrangement. This clause ensures ongoing service delivery and reduces administrative burdens by eliminating the need to renegotiate or re-sign agreements for each new term, thereby providing stability and predictability for both parties.
Continuous Appointments. Full-time faculty shall be considered for tenure during the sixth consecutive semester with three evaluations excluding summer sessions and any full semester leave. The faculty committee on tenure will forward its recommendation regarding tenure to the College President by December 1 of each year (or by May 1 for faculty hired midyear). The President, after considering the appropriate administrative and faculty tenure committee recommendations (or without committee recommendation if not received by December 1; May 1), will notify the faculty member and the Faculty Senate of the intended recommendation to renew or non-renew a probationary appointment.
Continuous Appointments. All employees, except those specified in 9.4.2 are covered by article 9.3 of the Common Agreement.

Continuous Appointments. All employees, except those specified in 9.4.2 are covered by Article 9.3
Continuous Appointments a. A Continuous Appointment (tenure) shall apply only to a Primary Appointment. Once granted by the Board, a Continuous Appointment shall be automatically renewed from year to year thereafter unless the Unit Member is terminated for adequate cause; as a consequence of discontinuance of a program or department or financial exigency; or due to voluntary separation, retirement, disability, or death. b. The total period of full-time service on an Appointment for a Specific Term prior to the acquisition of a Continuous Appointment shall not exceed seven years, including all previous tenure-related full-time service with the rank of instructor or higher in all accredited institutions of higher education, unless a contrary agreement is specified in writing at the time the Unit Member is initially appointed to an Appointment for a Specific Term. For Unit Members with three or more years of previous tenure-related full-time service with the rank of instructor or higher at accredited institutions of higher education, such agreement will not normally extend the period of service on a faculty appointment for a Specific Term beyond four years before a Continuous Appointment is acquired, and in no case shall such agreement extend the period of service on an Appointment for a Specific Term at UNO beyond seven years before a Continuous Appointment is granted. Time spent on a Faculty Development Fellowship shall be included in the period of service. A Continuous Appointment may be granted earlier, but not later, than the times specified above. A Unit Member on an Appointment for a Specific Term who is not granted a Continuous Appointment in accordance with the time limits above, shall be given a notice of nonreappointment in accord with Section 3.
