RULES FOR WINTER INTERSESSION
For planning of the number of hours of class time per week, please be sure to schedule at or above the Carnegie minimum. For a 3
standard hour course, schedule at least 48 hours, preferably about 54. Starting 7/1/2002, service in Winter Intersession will be
creditable to the retirement system, with an 8% deduction from gross pay. Winter Intersession service is exempt from counting for
eligibility for tenure or probationary status, just as Summer Session service; there is no 60% limit applied to service of a temporary
employee. Winter Intersession classes may not overlap into the Fall or Spring semester period of classes without loss of exemption.
Service in Fall or Spring will count in that semester. Overlaps into Winter Intersession from Fall or Spring up to two weeks do not
count in the Winter Intersession. Just as for Summer Session, assignments are limited to 1 FTE until the priority procedure has been
followed for all and a person reaches priority a second time. The “level pay” method used in Fall and Spring is now used for Winter
Intersession as well. Use the 25 and 26 pay periods. If the intersession spans both 25 and 26, pay half in each of 25 and 26.
Just as for Summer sessions, WSCH apportionment is not available for Winter intersession. To have the preferable DSCH status for
intersession classes, please be sure the class meeting time is the same on all days the class meets. That is, divide the time per week
into equal packets for the four or five days the class meets. Temporary, prob and tenured faculty may be assigned 100%.
CLASSES STAFFED BY PROB/TENURED FACULTY (MUST USE Z BASIS):
1. Staffed in payback of a contract underload, or as part of an approved load banking plan. Code the class “R” in SCH4; in DEC

pay method (equal hours in each pay period assigned).

Winter intersession for fractional D basis Department Chairs and other fractional or fulltime D basis faculty:
D basis assignments are not considered Winter Intersession Assignments; but fulltime or fractional D basis is charged against Winter
Intersession priority as winter employment, for ¼, ½, or 1 depending on the FTE value of the D basis assignment. A fractional D
basis faculty member may be offered up to a full intersession assignment in priority order, and paid adjunct for the intersession
service.
