Unpaid leaves of absence are not included in this count. For a variety of reasons, the reported courseload may represent an adjustment from the number of courses actually taught in a department. The FTE equivalent is always reported in the faculty member's home department. A normal courseload equivalent is six courses per year, including teaching two out of every three Short Terms. See notes to determine if the count represents a fall census or a year-end final count.
Most external reports use the faculty count census in the fall of the academic year.
Physical Education faculty who have instructional duties are included, but those who coach only are not. Teaching assistants, assistants in instruction, and special music adjuncts are not included. Created by JCF rev.
