Common use of ONE YEAR DELAY Clause in Contracts

ONE YEAR DELAY. When multiple sabbatical leave applications from a department are recommended by the Sabbatical Leave Committee, or when an applicant is the sole faculty member in a department, the president, in consultation with the appropriate vice president and the faculty member’s immediate supervisor, may delay the granting of a sabbatical leave for a period of not more than one year if it is determined that taking the sabbatical leave will be severely detrimental to the program. Leaves delayed in this way will be automatically placed on the approved list for the next year and will become one of the granted leaves for that year. If not taken in that year, the faculty member must reapply as in the regular process. Years of service toward the faculty member’s next sabbatical will be counted from the time when the original sabbatical leave would have ended, not from the conclusion of the delayed leave. When the delay causes the availability of an additional sabbatical leave for the current year, the president shall refer to the ranked list of applicants and, if necessary, contact the chairperson of the Sabbatical Leave Committee to announce a Late Sabbatical Leave.
