-**SUMMER PAYROLL**+===== Summer Payroll =====
  
 Faculty with separate summer appointments are paid on varying schedules according to their assignments. The basis of summer pay* is the number of credit hours of the course. Currently, a faculty member will receive $6,000 per three credit hour course (up to two courses) that meets minimum enrollment (see pro-rated calculations below). In rare instances, the dean may approve teaching a third course, in which case pay will be calculated at the lecturer rate. Please note that under enrolled courses may be canceled and pay is prorated for under enrolled courses that have not been canceled. Faculty may earn up to 3/9ths (33.33%) of their previous academic year salary in the summer, through teaching, administrative, and grant pay. Per university policy, faculty are allowed to receive up to 1/9th (11.11%) of their AY salary each month in the summer. Your summer pay spread will be stated on your summer contract.
