Section 1. Membership
Membership will be open to all permanent and temporary
faculty whose work assignments consist of less than sixty
percent (60%) managerial duties. Meetings of the membership
will be held at least once each semester. A member in good
standing is one who pays dues ( II.2).
Section 2. Dues
Dues will be paid at the flat rate of one percent (1%)
of base annual salary (not including overloads and summer
session) for permanent faculty. Temporary faculty will be
assessed at one and one-half
percent (1 1/2%)
of their gross salary per semester, subject to a minimum
of $15.00 $10.00
per month. [#1 ratified 10/22/1999].
No dues will be assessed during the summer session. Revenues
produced by dues will be distributed between the required
per capita payments to the affiliates (I.3) and the CCFT.
Dues will be collected from members through payroll deduction
(August-May).
Changes in dues assessment may be proposed by the Executive
Board (III.2), and must be approved by a three-fifths majority
vote of those voting.
Section 3. Voting
Voting is a right of membership in the CCFT (II.1): one
person, one vote.
All elections will be decided by a simple majority of those
voting, with the exception of the ratification of constitutional
amendments, changes in dues, and the ratification of the
constitution itself.
Only CCFT members are eligible to vote on matters that
lie within the bargaining unit's statutory and contractual
responsibilities.
