Designees

(must be otherwise appointed)

Some employees have designations that are in addition to their official academic rank or professional title. Examples are academic rank employees who are designated as chair of a department, program or other organizational unit. In their designations they serve at the pleasure of the appointing authority, but while serving, and upon being relieved of such designation, they retain such rights and privileges as they may have by virtue of their academic rank or professional title. Such designees are typically compensated by stipends that are in addition to their base salary and/ or release time.
