Full-time faculty members have a duty to participate in University governance. As with Teaching and Research, such Service is protected by the principles of academic freedom. While NOT normally subject to additional compensation (beyond the terms of the collective agreement), no faculty member should feel obligated to undertake specific Service activities against their will. Please contact us if you feel that you are being improperly pressured to take on Service work.
Part-time faculty members are NOT normally expected to participate in University governance. Should you ever agree to do any work that goes beyond your contractual Teaching responsibilities, you must be fairly compensated via a further contract of Additional Duties. Please contact us if you have any concerns.
FAUST offers compensation for travel-related expenses whenever union members teaching in remote locations wish to visit the Fredericton campus for union or professional development activities. Appropriate compensation is provided on a case-by case basis and generally requires submission of expense receipts.
If your contract specifies that a course is to be delivered off-campus, you may have additional rights and protections. Please contact faust@stu.ca for more information.
FAUST is committed to countering abusive colonial practices in university education, which have unfairly excluded and mis-represented Indigenous Peoples for generations. This is a complex, long-term project that requires serious investments of time and resources from all members of the university community. For some guiding principles, see the CAUT Policy.
We now have an ad hoc committee on Indigenization of the Academic Workplace. If you are interested in becoming involved, contact faust@stu.ca.

If a class must be cancelled because of an unexpected occurrence such as the illness of the instructor, the instructor will notify the executive assistant of the Vice-President (Academic & Research), who will attempt to notify the students by posting the class cancellation on the website. The instructor will also notify the department chair. If an instructor may reasonably foresee their absence from a scheduled class, the prior approval of the appropriate Dean is required. You must submit a written request, including the anticipated dates of your absence, reasons for cancelling class, and any alternative or makeup activities/assignments which you have arranged. It is also your responsibility to inform students of foreseen absences and any alternative assignments/activities.
For more information, see the class cancellation policy.
The decision about whether to close will be made by the University.
Local media outlets are notified of a storm closure by 6:45 AM. Faculty should consult local radio stations for news of cancellations: 106.9 FM, 95.1 FM, 103.5 FM, 105 FM, 1260 AM.
You may also call the university switchboard for cancellation updates: 452-0640.

If you decide to cancel classes, notify the office of the Vice-President (Academic & Research), as well as your department chair and department assistant.
