1. ROLL CALL

2. KATHLEEN LUKKEN - SUMMER SEMESTER SCHEDULING 1999 - The proposed schedule has come from the Semester Transition Team. The proposed standard 12 week Summer term divides the 12 week period into 4 and 8 week time frames. The 8 week period can also be divided into two 4 week periods. Courses running 12 weeks, 6 weeks and 3 weeks are also allowed. This, however, is not the standard. Standard start times are: 7:00 a.m., 9:45 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m., with the suggestion that classes are scheduled Monday through Thursday. Special populations can be scheduled at different times and on any day of the week.

ADJUNCT FACULTY PAY PERIODS FOR SEMESTERS - Adjunct faculty will be paid 6 payments during the semester. The Payroll Office is in favor of this schedule as it coordinates with other checks being run. The pay schedule will be the same as contract faculty. Pay periods for Fall Semester 1998 will be - October 3, October 18, November 3, November 18, December 3 and December 18. Pay periods for Spring Semester 1999 will be - February 18, March 3, March 18, April 3, April 18 and May 3.
