Resignations


Accepted professional practice requires that resignations be submitted by letter to the department chairperson no later than April 1 or 30 days after receiving notification of the terms of his or her continued employment the following year, whichever date occurs later. Except by mutual agreement with the appropriate University administrator, resignations by the teaching faculty to become effective during the academic year cannot be accepted.

In the case of Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension System personnel, resignations will be made by letter to the head of the department in the Experiment Station and to the Director of the Cooperative Extension System sixty days or more in advance of the date on which the resignation is to become effective. Any accumulated leave must be taken prior to date of resignation and at the convenience of the department concerned.

Final Checks

A faculty member's final check will not be automatically deposited or sent to the department. The faculty member must go to the Appointment Processing Office, where he or she can pick up the final check, hand in the ID card, and clear any balances due to the University.

A check reflecting final payment to deceased faculty members will be forwarded to the Benefits Office, where it will be transmitted to the appropriate supervisor with information concerning survivor's benefits.
