To alter Workload Model provision 12.0 by eliminating the term equally. 
 
12.0         Workload for Team-Taught Courses: Workload factors given for team-taught courses, those taught by two or three more teachers who are primarily responsible for instruction and grading, will be divided equally among responsible teachers as determined by the Dean, Department Chair and the faculty. Individual teachers will not receive full workload for team-taught courses.
 
Recommended that the professor who manages the VITA Tax program on campus be given a three (3) credit workload release each spring semester that the program is in operation.
