Exhibit 6.3
Summaries of Faculty Workload
The
table below includes data from the 1996-2000 AACTE/NCATE annual reports
(Exhibit G-6)
concerning mean teaching loads for faculty members appointed
full-time in professional education. These data
have not been requested for the PEDS report since the 2000
report and they have not been gathered
or calculated. It is estimated that current data are similar to these.

Relatively
small numbers (app. 10% of the full time equated faculty
of the COE) of professional education faculty members
are employed as "lecturers," e.g.,
full-time faculty members not on the tenure track. In general, the lecturers
hold one- or two-year term appointments, potentially renewable. A 15-semester
hour load is the "norm," although
there are provisions both for accreditation considerations
and various equivalencies. In
general, lecturers are responsible for instruction-related activities
but have no responsibility for scholarly/creative activities
or service-related activities. Extensive policies governing the employment
and use of lecturers are covered in the "Collective Bargaining
Agreement by and Between Eastern Michigan University and the
Eastern Michigan University Federation of Teachers (EMU-FT)"
("Lecturers Contract")
(Exhibit 6.13).
