Renewal Notification

Article XIII of our CBA outlines the renewal notification process. If you are returning faculty, you should receive your contract renewal notification at least one month prior to the end of your contract.

If you typically teach more than one term each academic year, this notification should reflect your appointment for the entirety of the coming academic year. Please contact us immediately if it does not.

For promoted faculty on two year contracts, you should receive a renewal every other year, and the notice should show that your contract extends over two years.

• Did you receive your renewal letter one month prior to the end of your contract?
• Does your notice include the length of your appointment?
• If you were non-renewed, did you receive your non-renewal notice in a timely manner? According to Article XIII, Sections 4 and 5 of our CBA, non-tenure track faculty should receive non-renewal notices at the following times:
  • Unpromoted Faculty – 1 month notice prior to the end of your current contract
  • Promoted Faculty – 4 months notice prior to the end of your current contract
• If you are promoted faculty and were non-renewed, have you invoked your right to a reason for your non-renewal, as outlined in Article XIII, Section 6 of our CBA?
