Graduate Assistant (GA) Instructor of Record Pay 

Please see the enclosed Instructions for Processing Instructor of Record Pay in accordance with the collective bargaining agreement language below. Please ensure that the applicable staff on your campus, college, or unit receive this information — especially payroll staff who handle this type of entry — because this requires coordination at the local level and is not being managed centrally in mass like other GA pay components.  

Section 5. Graduate Instructor of Record 

At the conclusion of the semester of the appointment term, a GA designated by the department, program, or school as the primary instructor of record for a course and appointed in job code 9515 or 9517 shall receive a lump sum payment of $250.00 per course credit.
