Justification for Position
Please use field below to support your unit’s need for instructional support and explain why your unit’s full-time faculty and instructional staff cannot cover these courses. Please provide as much detail as possible.
- If you are requesting an FTE or non-FTE instructor position, please list the specific courses (including anticipated enrollment) for which you are requesting support, if the course is a major or Carolina Core course requirement, and if all other sections (if applicable) are full. Please also note if the request is covering a course buyout or other issues, such as an unanticipated departure of an instructor of faculty member.
- If you are requesting additional temporary/adjunct faculty members (TFAC) to cover additional sections needed during registration, please list the course and the anticipated enrollment for which you are requesting support, if the course is a major or Carolina Core course requirement, and if all other sections (if applicable) are full. Please also note if the request is covering a course buyout or other issues, such as an unanticipated departure of an instructor of faculty member.
- If you are requesting an overload for a current member of your instructional staff, please clearly explain the need for this instructor to take on additional sections rather than assigning them to a faculty member or TFAC. You will also need to provide the instructor’s current course load (including actual enrollment). Please also note if the course is a major or Carolina Core course requirement, and if all other sections (if applicable) are full.
- Please note that should minimum enrollment not be met, your RIS form will be declined.
