The Faculty Senate is soliciting applications for Leave for Professional Advancement for the Benefit of the College for the 2015/2016 academic year. It is important to note that a Leave is not a Sabbatical and must demonstrate a tangible need to the College. All applications must be submitted by 5 p.m. Friday, March 4th, 2016. Below is more information on the Leave process.
As stated in Article 13:
Leaves are granted for study, formal education, research, writing or other experiences of professional value. Leaves for professional advancement may be granted for a period of one year at rates not to exceed one-half salary, or for periods of one-half year at rates not to exceed full salary. These leaves are made available each year to members of the faculty and non-teaching professionals. The objective of such leave is to increase each person’s value to the College in relation to the annual College goals and thereby improve and enrich its program.
Eligibility
