It is strongly recommended that the Department Chairperson or his or her designee follow these procedures in the case of all Unit members. i. If the College drops a class from the schedule that a Unit member routinely teaches, it must notify the Unit member. The College must make every effort to find another class for that Unit member. The above notwithstanding, the College shall not be required to remove a faculty member assigned to teach a course from that course in order to find another class for such Unit member, unless the Unit member meets the criteria of Article VII, Sections 1 and 2 above. ii. If the College cancels a class for which it had scheduled a Unit member due to a lack of sufficient enrollment, it will advise the Unit member before the beginning of classes. The College will explore the possibility of the unit member teaching a different class and should no class be available, it shall assign the Unit member a class if the Unit member meets the criteria outlined in Article VII, Sections 1 and 2. iii. If the College alters significantly any class that a Unit member routinely teaches, the College must notify the Unit member in a timely manner, but no less than three (3) weeks before the end of the semester preceding implementation. If the department determines that the Unit member is not qualified to teach the altered course, the College shall provide the opportunity to acquire training to him or her, if the College offers such training. Once the Unit member successfully completes the training, the College will offer course assignments to the Unit member in accordance with Article VII, Sections 1 and 2. The above notwithstanding, the College shall not be required to remove a faculty member assigned to teach a course from that course in order to find another class for such Unit member, unless the criteria of Article VII, Sections 1 and 2 above are met. B. It is understood that the purpose of the above procedures is to offer instructional continuity to Unit members with fifty-one (51) or more credits of service to the College. The final decision of who teaches each course is the sole prerogative of the Department Chairperson provided that such decisions are in accordance with other sections of this Article.
