ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS
• Meeting the essential duties and responsibilities of a full-time, tenure track teaching appointment at Allegany College of Maryland requires at least
40 hours per week on average, including work on and off campus, during the contract period. Much of the faculty work occurs at designated times
each week (such as classes, office hours, meetings, etc.) However, the very nature of the workload of a professional educator at the college level
means that the hours a faculty member fulfills his or her non-scheduled responsibilities are based on each individual's judgment. The College offers
learning opportunities in a variety of settings and at various times throughout day including weekends. As such, relegating faculty to an 8-5,
Monday through Friday schedule is impractical. A typical faculty work schedule varies from semester to semester and week to week to
