Y. 10027 OFFICE OF STUDENT EMPLOYMENT 206 East Mall This agreement, made this 25th day of May, 1979 , is entered into between the Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York ("University") and City of Corpus Christi, Texas ("Organization"), a public or private, non-profit or- ganization within the meaning of that term as defined in section 175.2 of the College Work -Study Regulations (of the Office of Education, U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare), for the purpose of pro- viding work to students eligible to participate in the College Work - Study Program. In accordance with the requirements of the federal program, work to be performed under this agreement must be work in the public interest, which (1) will not result in the displacement of employed workers or impair existing contracts for services; (2) will be governed by such condition of employment, including compensation, as will be appropriate and reasonable in light of such factors as type of work performed, geographical region, and proficiency of the employee; (3) does not in- volve the construction, operation or maintenance of so much of any facility as is used, or is to be used, for sectarian instruction or as a place for religious worship; and (4) does not involve any partisan or nonpartisan political activity associated with a candidate, or con- tending faction or group, in an election for public or party office. Further, no work shall be considered to be in the public interest where (1) it is work for which the political support, affiliation, or affinity of the student is a pre -requisite or consideration for employment, (2) it is work to be performed for an elected official other than as part of the regular administration of federal, state, or local government, or (3) it is work for a membership organization (such as a credit union, a fraternal order, or a cooperative) which is primarily for the benefit of the members of such organizations rather than the public. As a part of this agreement, students may not perform work on any pro- ject in excess of their certified Work -Study eligibility. If a stu- dent's eligibility is earned before the end of a term -time or summer program, they must be removed from the Work -Study payroll. The University, when assigning students, will inform the Organization of the maximum number of hours per week a student may work during the summer or other period of nonregular enrollment. Students will be made available to the Organization by the University for performance of specific work assignments. Students may be removed from work on a particular assignment or from the Organization by the University, either on its own initiative or at the request of the Or- ganization. The Organization agrees that no student will be denied work or subjected to different treatment under this agreement on the EA //I • grounds of race, color, sex or national origin, and that it will comply with the provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (P,L, 88-332; Stat. 252) and the regulations of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare which implement that Act. Transportation for students to and from their work assignments will not be provided by either the University or the Organization. The University shall be deemed the employer for purposes of this agree- ment. It has the ultimate right to control and direct the services of the student for the organization. It shall also determine that the students meet the eligibility requirements for employment under the College Work -Study Program, assign students to work for the Organiza- tion, and determine that the students do perform their work in fact. The Organization's right shall be limited to direction of the details and mean by which the result is to be accomplished. The Organization will make regular payments to the University covering the legal portion of the student payrolls for the months employed. This agreement requires the Organization to contribute 20% of the student's hourly salary. Each week the Organization shall supply the University with a list of the students performing services during that particular period, showing the number of hours worked by each student, and a statement as to the satisfactory performance of the assigned jobs. On the basis of such reports, an appropriate adjustment shall be made between the parties to determine the actual amount payable by the Organization; but the Organization shall not over the term of the project pay in excess of the legal portion of the student payrolls provided in the project as approved. Salaries will be paid only for hours actually worked, as the project does not include payments for lunch time, sick leave, vacations or holidays. The Organization will pay to the University in addition to the payments called for above, other charges (if any) required by law on student payrolls. Special insurance coverage, such as fidelity bonding, if re- quired, shall be at the expense of the Organization. Both parties will observe all provisions of Title I Part C of the Econo- mic Opportunity Act of 1964, Public Law 88-452, the amendments thereto in Title IV Part C of the Higher Education Act of 1965, Public Law 80-329, and the Higher Education amendments of 1972, Public Law 92-318. This agreement shall take effect July 2, 1979 , and shall terminate August 30, 1979 Either party may terminate the agreement upon reasonable notice to the other. Columb By Robert J.
