Policy Statement
Student Academic Appointments
Student appointments must be appropriate to the student’s qualifications and academic programs. Eligibility requires continuing progress towards a degree. Student appointments are necessarily part-time.
Associate Instructors
This title is used for graduate students who are part-time appointees and who engage in activities typical of a teacher. An Associate Instructor is responsible for assigning grades for at least a portion of a course and has direct contact with students. Typical activities include—but are not necessarily limited to—lecturing, tutoring, and laboratory instruction.
Other Student Academic Personnel
Students hold positions as Research Assistants, as Graduate Assistants, as Undergraduate Assistants, and as Faculty Assistants. All student appointments are part time and temporary.
