RUSH
encourages everyone, regardless of rank, to share his or her knowledge with
the Kingdom. New classes and instructors, with a diversity of subject matter
and viewpoint, are always welcome. The RUSH Board will review all class offerings
to determine if they are appropriate for the RUSH curriculum.
The procedure for being a RUSH instructor:
1. Fill out a Class Information Form for each class you would like to teach.
Include a short outline, description, or overview of the material you are covering
in the class. Be sure to fill out the form completely. If you are unsure about
any items, ask a Regent for help. The form is available from any RUSH Board
member and is on the website.
2. Send the completed form to the Registrar. Contact the Chancellor for a current
listing of the RUSH Board. The Chancellor’s name and address are in the
MEWS and the entire RUSH Board in listed on the website. The Registrar will
inform the Regents about new classes. This will happen automatically if you
use the form on the RUSH website.
3. The form should be in the Registrar’s hands at least three months prior
to the month of the session. Six months is much better. There are limits on
the number of classroom hours available at any one session. The sooner you indicate
your willingness to teach, the more likely your class will be included in the
schedule. If your class does not make it onto the schedule for a particular
session, please offer to teach it at a future session.
4. If you would like to offer a class you have previously taught, you do not
need to submit a new Class Information Form unless there is some change in the
information on the form. However, you do need to contact the Regent to let them
know you are interested in teaching. You are responsible for contacting the
Regent for each session at which you would like to teach.
HOW THE CLASS SCHEDULE IS PUT TOGETHER
The Regent for the hosting campus is responsible for assembling the class list
and schedule. The Regent considers many factors while putting the schedule together.
These factors include, but are not limited by:
The number of classrooms available
Any special facilities the site may
offer
Any site restrictions
Which classes have been offered on
that campus before
Requests for specific classes from
the gentles in the hosting group
Classes whose instructors have contacted the Regent will be considered for inclusion
on the schedule.
