How WillÌýAn AdjunctÌýKnow If They Have A Class Assignment?
Department Chairs or Program Directors will discuss with the adjunct availability to teach prior to entering the assignment into the °ÄÃÅÀÏÆæÈËÂÛ̳ Banner modules.
Once the respective dean has approved the course assignment(s) and compensation entered into Self-Serve Banner Faculty and Load Compensation (FLAC) system, the adjunct will receive an email in their °ÄÃÅÀÏÆæÈËÂÛ̳ email account. When received, they should follow the instructions in order to acknowledge the term contract. Not completing this process will delay salary payments.
