Waivers for Adjuncts

When a college wants an adjunct to teach more than 8 credits in a semester, management asks both the union and the employee to sign a waiver that allows management to violate our Contract. Without the waiver, the adjunct would be covered by the same agreement that covers full-time members. This is not good for adjuncts and should be used only in true emergencies.

Adjuncts May Qualify for Health Insurance

Part-time faculty who teach at multiple state college/university systems (community colleges, state universities, UConn.) and who teach 9 credits or more qualify for a health insurance reimbursement for the months that they are teaching.
