    • Any part-time clinical faculty member wishing to resign from clinical instruction of students is asked to notify the Clinical Coordinator of the affiliating hospital according to the accepted protocol of the anesthesia group.
  • Non-Reappointment:

    A full-time (non-administrative), full affiliated, or part-time academic faculty member will be notified in May of each year if he/she will not be offered an appointment for the next academic year. Non- reappointment to a specific course may not mean non-reappointment as a part-time faculty member. The faculty member may be offered the opportunity to teach a different course within the program in an area where he/she may have demonstrated more appropriate skills.  As a courtesy to the faculty member, such notification is done in person or by a telephone call with a follow-up email and/or note placed in the faculty member’s file.
