Sabbatical Leaves. Sabbatical leaves are a privilege extended by the University for the purpose of strengthening the academic programs of the University while also strengthening the professional preparation of the individual faculty member in scholarship, creative activity, and teaching. While one-, two-, or three-term sabbaticals are allowed, the University believes that longer term sabbaticals better serve institutional needs; thus, the University encourages its faculty to take longer sabbaticals whenever possible. In exceptional circumstances, the institution may extend sabbatical privileges over two or three academic years to accommodate special program needs. In such an eventuality, the faculty member will be eligible for a sabbatical seven (7) years from the initial sabbatical year. 1. Professorial faculty members with appointments of at least 0.5 FTE are eligible for a sabbatical leave after six (6) years of service. Applications for sabbatical leave are submitted to the Xxxxxxx for approval in the sixth or subsequent year of service. Both the Xxxxxxx and the faculty member must agree to any substantive changes to an approved sabbatical plan. The six (6) years of service for a second or subsequent sabbatical is counted beginning with the academic year following the first term of the prior sabbatical. 2. The University has the right to delay a sabbatical leave for up to two years. In such instances, the delay counts as years of service toward the subsequent sabbatical. Such a delay must be documented in writing and approved by the Xxxxxxx. 3. Faculty members are obligated to return to the University for at least one year of service following a sabbatical. They must also submit a report of the accomplishments and benefits resulting from the leave. 4. Compensation is based on the number of terms of the sabbatical: a. Three-term sabbatical: faculty member earns 60 percent salary each term on sabbatical leave and full salary for any term not on leave during any academic year with one or more terms of sabbatical leave.
