Question 13
13. Sampaguita University (SU) hired Farah as Instructor I in the College of
Education on a contractual or part-time basis beginning the first semester of
school year 2015-2016. In 2018, SU appointed Farah as Instructor II. SU
informed her that she will attain regular status on the condition that she obtain a
master’s degree by May 31, 2022, otherwise, her employment will either be
terminated or considered as contractual or part-time. When Farah failed to secure
the required educational qualification within the allotted time, SU classified her
as a part-time faculty effective June 1, 2022. On April 30, 2023, SU notified
Farah that they will no longer be renewing or extending her contract as part-time
faculty upon its expiration. Farah thus filed a complaint for illegal dismissal. Will
her complaint prosper? Discuss your answer.
