This proposal is about making the university’s tuition benefit for faculty and our family members’ more fair. Committee members propose:

• Expanding access to tuition benefits for part-time faculty and their immediate family by allowing faculty to bank tuition benefits on a course-by-course basis for up to 6 years. Currently, faculty can only bank tuition-free courses for up to 1 year.

• Ensure that faculty have the right to take at a minimum 2 tuition-free courses per semester. (The same as full-time faculty.)

• Ensure that faculty members’ children can take a regular, full-time course load tuition free. (Same as full-time faculty members’ children.)

• Providing greater access to courses by allowing faculty to register at the same time as other students in their degree or certificate program while allowing faculty not enrolled in a degree or certificate program to audit a class, at the discretion of the other faculty member.
