87482
. (a) (1) Notwithstanding Section 87480, the governing board
of a community college district may employ any qualified individual
as a temporary faculty member for a complete school year, but not
less than a complete semester or quarter during a school year. The
employment of those persons shall be based upon the need for
additional faculty during a particular semester or quarter because of
the higher enrollment of students during that semester or quarter as
compared to the other semester or quarter in the academic year, or
because a faculty member has been granted leave for a semester,
quarter, or year, or is experiencing long-term illness, and shall be
limited, in number of persons so employed, to that need, as
determined by the governing board of the community college district.
(2) Employment of a person under this subdivision may be pursuant
to contract fixing a salary for the entire semester or quarter.
(b) A person, other than a person serving as clinical nursing
faculty and exempted from this subdivision pursuant to paragraph (1)
of subdivision (c), shall not be employed by any one district under
this section for more than two semesters or three quarters within any
period of three consecutive years.
(c) (1) Notwithstanding subdivision (b), a person serving as
full-time clinical nursing faculty or as part-time clinical nursing
faculty teaching the hours per week described in Section 87482.5 may
be employed by any one community college district under this section
for up to four semesters or six quarters within any period of three
consecutive academic years between July 1, 2007, and December 31,
2015, inclusive.
(2) A community college district that employs faculty pursuant to
this subdivision shall provide data to the chancellor's office as to
the number of faculty members hired under this subdivision, and what
the ratio of full-time to part-time faculty was for each of the three
academic years prior to the hiring of faculty under this subdivision
and for each academic year for which faculty is hired under this
subdivision. This data shall be submitted, in writing, to the
chancellor's office on or before June 30, 2012.
(3) The Chancellor of the California Community Colleges shall
report, in writing, to the Legislature and the Governor on or before
September 30, 2012, in accordance with data received pursuant to
paragraph (2), the number of community college districts that hired
faculty under this subdivision, the number of faculty members hired
under this subdivision, and what the ratio of full-time to part-time
faculty was for these community college districts in each of the
three academic years prior to the operation of this subdivision and
for each academic year for which faculty is hired under this
subdivision.
(4) A community college district may not employ a person pursuant
to this subdivision if the hiring of that person results in an
increase in the ratio of part-time to full-time nursing faculty in
that district.
