Adjunct Faculty Information

Adjunct Class Fee Benefits

As current fiscal year budget permits, Rose State College will pay 100 percent of the general enrollment fee for up to three (3) credit hours per regular semester and three (3) credit hours per summer term for adjunct professors who are assigned at least three (3) equated credit hours for instruction in that semester or summer term and who have instructed in at least two previous semesters or summer terms at Rose State College. This benefit does not apply to repeated courses or extend to family members.

Adjunct Faculty Handbook

Your associate dean is your direct source of information; however, an Adjunct Faculty Handbook is also available online to provide answers to questions from grading policies to emergency procedure policies. It is imperative that adjunct faculty become familiar with this document. Click Here to view the Adjunct Faculty Handbook (PDF file).

Adjunct Leave

The faculty member must notify the dean or associate dean as early as possible about a planned absence. No classes are dismissed without the permission of the dean or associate dean.
