31.1 Tenured Persons and Lecturers Holding CCEs
The provisions of subdivision eight of section 6212 of the Education Law shall be followed in the case of tenured persons. The provisions of the Board Bylaw Section 6.14 [16] and the provisions of this Agreement shall be followed in the case of certificated persons.
The name of any such person shall be placed on an eligible list to be used in the filling of vacancies which may thereafter arise in the title and retrenchment unit of last employment. Rules and regulations shall be promulgated which include provision for the rehiring of such persons on a last- released first-rehired basis.
31.2 Non‑Tenured Persons in the titles Professor, Associate Professor, Assistant Professor, College Laboratory Technician Series, Registrar Series, and Non‑Certificated Lecturers
The name of any such person, except a person who received a notice of non‑reappointment prior to being discontinued from his or her position, shall be placed on an eligible list to fill vacancies arising prior to the date which, in the absence of being discontinued, would have been the expiration date of the appointment or the expiration date of any reappointment in the title last held in the retrenchment unit of last employment, except that when an individual has received a recommendation for tenure or the CCE and is retrenched prior to the effective date of tenure or the CCE, the name of the individual shall be placed on an eligible list for a period of three years. Any person restored to a position pursuant to this paragraph shall receive notice of reappointment or non‑reappointment no later than June 15. The dates provided in Article 18 of this agreement for observations and evaluations shall not apply with respect to any reappointment or non‑reappointment of a person restored to service pursuant to this paragraph. When a person is restored to service pursuant to this paragraph, the period of creditable service prior to the discontinuance shall be added to creditable service after such restoration for purposes of computing years of service required for tenure, but an academic year in which such person did not serve a full continuous year shall not be included in computing the years of service required for tenure. Rules and regulations shall be promulgated for the administration of these lists which include provision for the rehiring of persons on a last-released first-rehired basis except for special educational reasons. Acceptance of a position in the same or in a higher title in another college shall cause a person’s name to be removed from the eligible list.
31.3 Staff in Non‑Tenure- and Non‑Certificate-Bearing Titles
The name of any such person, except a person who has received a notice of non‑reappointment prior to being discontinued from his or her position, shall be placed on an eligible list to fill vacancies for a position in his/her title, function, and retrenchment unit which may arise prior to the date which, in the absence of being discontinued, would have been the expiration date of the appointment, or for three years, whichever period is shorter. Should such a position be reestablished, persons on the eligible list shall be restored to service in reverse order of discontinuance, except for special educational reasons, with respect to teaching personnel in these titles.
Any person restored to a position pursuant to this paragraph who would otherwise receive a notice of appointment or non‑reappointment during that academic year shall receive such notice no later than June 15.
The dates provided in Article 18 of this agreement for observations and evaluations shall not apply to a reappointment or non‑reappointment of a person restored to service pursuant to this paragraph.
31.4 Acceptance of a position in the same or in a higher title in another college shall cause a person’s name to be removed from the eligible list.
31.5 CUNY agrees to publicize the functions of the University’s Instructional Staff Referral Service and to extend its services to members of the PSC bargaining unit in both full‑time and part‑time positions.
