Administrative Leave Without Prior Notice. If, in a specific instance, the Board deems it unreasonable or impractical due to the seriousness of the allegations to provide a Faculty member (either tenured or tenure-track) with advance notice of the reason(s) for possible dismissal or suspension without pay, then the Board may temporarily place the Faculty member on a paid or unpaid administrative leave until such time as it can provide such notice and offer the Faculty member an opportunity to meet and respond, provided that no such temporary administrative leave shall exceed sixty (60) calendar days. The Board may extend the administrative leave beyond the sixty (60) calendar day limit, but such extension shall be limited to the number of days of extension requested by and granted to a Faculty member for any process under this Article. If a Faculty member has been temporarily placed on administrative leave without pay under this paragraph and is later exonerated, such Faculty member shall be paid for the period of the temporary administrative leave without pay.
