4. Entities Affected by this Policy:

   All full-time faculty members.

5. Principles:

   1. The IBSAL is used as the full-time faculty salary of the faculty member in all submissions for funding for sponsored work. The IBSAL may not be increased as a result of replacing 黑料传送门 salary funds with grant funds, contract funds, and/or other revenues. Neither the IBSAL nor the faculty member鈥檚 FTE (as shown in the 黑料传送门 payroll system) may be increased during a fiscal year as a result of receipt or loss of salary support from grants, contracts, and/or other revenues.

   2. The standard academic year full-time faculty contract at the 黑料传送门 is ten (10) months. Exceptions (i.e., a 12-month full-time faculty contract), must be justified by special assignments or other professional considerations, and must be approved by the Provost and President. Implicit in the contractual arrangement between the 黑料传送门 and faculty members is that a full-time appointment constitutes a 100% commitment over the time of the contract duration, unless otherwise specified. (See USM Policies II-3.10, Policy on Professional Commitment of Faculty and II-3.20, Policy on Teaching Outside the Home Institution by Full-Time Faculty; see 黑料传送门 Policy 02-03.20, Policy on Outside Employment, Outside Professional Services, Outside Teaching, and Offload/Overload Teaching by Full-Time Faculty)

   3. The IBSAL may be changed only at the beginning of the fiscal year, except in the following limited circumstances:

      1. the faculty member鈥檚 formal appointment, and required professional effort, is changed from full-time to part-time, from part-time to full-time, or from one required level of part-time effort to another required level of part-time effort

      2. the faculty member receives a cost of living (COLA) or merit salary adjustment as part of a 黑料传送门-wide adjustment of salaries that occurs during a fiscal year

      3. faculty member receives a salary increase as a result of a retention or equity adjustment, or a promotion in rank or position occurs during a fiscal year

      4. other extraordinary circumstances with the prior written approval of the President.
