June 11—Session #8

AAFMCC:
  • Proposed articles for adjunct faculty rights and opportunities for shared governance (decision-making input on factors that impact students’ learning opportunities) and committee representation

June 23—Session #9
MCC:
  • Indicated that they are open to creating opportunities for adjunct service (and even to compensating us for our service)
  • Reported that they are unwilling to include the term “shared governance”
  • Rejected proposals regarding rights and responsibilities on committees
  • Stated they are not comfortable with including specifics about committee structure in the contract
AAFMCC:
  • Proposed increasing load limits to 12 per each fall, winter, and spring semester
  • Proposed new contract section--Benefits:
    • Tuition Reimbursement funds for classes outside of MCC
    • Tuition Waiver for AAFMCC members, our spouses/domestic partners, and legal dependents (like the FT Faculty have in their contract)

July 25—Session # 10
AAFMCC:
  • Presented the remainder of the Benefits proposals:
    • Professional Development Fund
    • Paid time off (personal, sick, and bereavement)
    • Health, dental and optical coverage.
  • Proposed a New Section--Career Path:
    • Gives adjunct faculty preference to outsiders when hiring for full time
    • Requires MCC Administration to provide a written response explaining why an adjunct applicant was not selected for full-time position

July 30—Session #11
MCC:
  • Claimed our requests for hiring preference and written feedback conflict with MCCFO’s contract.
AAFMCC:
  • Presented Pay Rates proposals :
    • Adjunct compensation proportionate to full-time compensation--Equal Pay for Equal Work
    • 75% pro-rata: adjunct faculty receive 75% of what full-time faculty receive per credit hour
    • 25% difference accounts for the additional departmental and institutional service that full-time faculty are expected to perform
    • 9 salary steps (currently, we only have 4)
    • $25 per hour compensation for completing MCC required on-ground or online training (like the Security Mentoring courses)
    • $50 per hour compensation for substitute teaching short term
    • Pay scale compensation for extended substitute teaching (greater than two days in the same assignment) ​
