Copy as parenthetical citation

(a) In order to improve the recruitment and retention of faculty in specified academic disciplines, the trustees shall establish a supplemental salary program.

Each fiscal year, the trustees shall identify both of the following:

(1) Those academic disciplines for which recruiting and retaining competent faculty has been a problem because the faculty salaries generally applicable are not competitive with salaries offered by industry or by other educational institutions.

(2) Those faculty members in the academic disciplines identified pursuant to paragraph (1) who shall qualify for participation in the supplemental salary program.

The memorandum of understanding between the trustees and the appropriate faculty bargaining unit shall specify the implementation plan for the supplemental salary program.

(b) This section shall be operative only for those years in which the Budget Act appropriates funds specifically for the supplemental salary program pursuant to this section.

(c) If this section is in conflict with a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to Chapter 12 (commencing with Section 3560) of Division 4 of Title 1 of the Government Code, the memorandum of understanding shall be controlling without further legislative action, except that if the provisions of a memorandum of understanding require the expenditure of funds, the provisions shall not become effective unless approved by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act.
