How does January term fit into teaching loads?
• Within the college, assess the faculty member’s teaching load as it exists with respect to Fall/Spring or Winter /Summer. Treat three semester hours in January like three semester hours any other time of the year. 15hrs/wk for 3 week (5hrs/day) is part of the regular work load. In certain circumstances, depending on their load, teaching during January term could be used for extra pay or used against the teaching load in other quarters. January term should also be used by faculty to engage in scholarship and/or attend conferences [as was discussed when we were making the decision to go to semesters].
