Are you receiving compensation for parking on campus? Payment of parking for part-time faculty is university policy. But the union has heard from some part-time faculty that they were not paid for parking last term.
The union has been assured by the administration 1) that there is no plan to change the policy; 2) that the Office of the President has both the means and the will to enforce the policy. If you are not receiving parking fees on your One Card, you are perfectly within your rights to remind your department chair of the policy, and if need be, a UPTF representative can help you to bring the matter up with your chair.
Please let UPTF know if you are not receiving parking. We will collect the information and bring it to the attention of the President’s Office. Contact the UPTF at (313) 832-7902.

01-3 Part-Time Faculty (pp. 184-85 of University Policy.pdf).
§5.3 The appointing school/college or equivalent unit shall provide each part-time faculty with a parking card, paid for by the unit, that includes parking for a number of days that approximates the number of days of classroom teaching, examination administration, and any other mandatory duties that correspond to the responsibilities set forth in the letter of appointment. This provision does not apply to part-time faculty members whose sole duties and responsibilities are fulfilled at University extension centers or other off-campus locations.
