According to the University Statutes, Article IX, Academic and Administrative Staff, Section 5c, Services Rendered to the University:
“Full-time employees shall not receive compensation for services with the University in excess of a normal schedule except for a reasonable amount of instruction in continuing education and public service programs or for the grading of special examinations (outside regular course work) stipulated by the University, all to be done at a time that does not conflict with other university duties. Exceptions may be made to this rule in special cases which are approved by the dean of the college of which the employee is a member provided that if such additional payments exceed a nominal amount the advance approval of the chancellor should be secured. These exceptions shall be held to a minimum.”
The campus guidelines for seeking exceptions, as permitted by the Statutes, are outlined below:
Service in excess of a full-time appointment should be temporary and kept to a minimum; total payment is not to be paid until all service has been performed. The policy includes, but is not limited to, overload teaching and Discovery courses.
