BUPP 715 Research Leaves

Current Policy
BUPP 715

Effective Date
September 28, 2005

Parties Involved
Provost's office initiated; Faculty Senate reviewed and approved on May 3, 2005; President approved September 28, 2005.

Summary of Changes
Clarification of description of length of leaves, mention of separate law school process, removal of description of implementation process, elaboration of notification process.

Reasons for Changes
Length of two-semester leave was inconsistent with the length of the contract year, use of the term "term" confusing and unnecessary without law school involvement, implementation process now complete, need to provide for notification of successful and unsuccessful applicants.

Previous Version of BUPP 715
Effective Date: March 1996 (as part of the "Sabbaticals" policy, BUPP 714); placed on website July 1998
Archived copy: Old BUPP-714
