Non-renure track faculty who have received a notice of non-reappointment are strongly encouraged to read Article 21.8 and 21.9 of the contract for information on non-reappointments, notification requirements, etc. If you still have questions on your status or your contract rights you can contact the FSU for more information.
Unemployment
All faculty provided with notice of non reappointment are strongly encouraged to apply for unemployment benefits. Unemployment benefits extend to individuals who are on partial workload reduction. The MTA will provide assistance to all unit members who apply for unemployment benefits and are initially denied. It is common for denial of unemployment benefits to be reversed upon appeal and the MTA provides legal assistance at the appellate level. Please note, this service is only provided to MTA members.
