HOLIDAYS - EVENING CLASSES

 

This fall both Thanksgiving Day and
Remembrance Day occurred on Mondays.
Some instructors complained that there
are only 13 or 14 evenings left in
which to hold classes.

Instructors have the following options
when holidays occur:

Extend the classes for an hour on
each of several evenings;

Add a class on a Friday night or
Saturday;

Hold the class on the holiday,
notwithstanding that the College is
not open during the day;

Provide assignments or arrange other
activities for the evening of the
class or in place of that evening.

To hold a class over the usual hour
or to hold it on an unusual evening
or to hold it when the College is
normally closed requires prior
arrangements with the Campus
Administrator. These arrangements
should be made at least a week and
preferably two weeks in advance.

The same sort of problem could occur
this spring if it snows again this
year. The same alternatives are
open to instructors.

PAYMENT OF TRAVELLING COSTS -
MILEAGE

 

The same rules apply to part-time as
apply to full-time instructors
regarding mileage:

An instructor is obliged to get from
home to his ordinary place of duty
and back home again at his own
expense.

Attendance by instructors at meetings,
inter-campus travel, and so on are
recoverable at the current rate of

15 cents a mile through an expense
account submitted to the divisional
director. Cv

The College will pay mileage to and
from home if the purpose is beyond
the faculty member's normal duties.
A part-time faculty member who teaches
Monday evening and comes to a
divisional meeting on Thursday
afternoons is entitled to return
mileage for the Thursday meeting.

A full-time faculty member who comes
out to an Advisory Committee Meeting
on Tuesday evening, which is not in
his ordinary timetable, is entitled
to return mileage for that meeting.
