Re: Faculty Overload Pay Herbert B. chermside 17 Jan 2002 14:54 EST
I have seen overload policies that appear to work. They do not increase the base pay; they merely allow payment of a supplement for an identified overload. Most limit it to one semester. They all require approval at a high level of academic management. They could not be used to augment faculty salary for taking on a federal sponsored program except in the unusual case where the overload results from the federal project and the project is very time constrained. Even then, I would strongly consider, if a case arose where we'd want to apply it to federal funding, having recognition of the unusual overload nature written into the funding instrument.
