Education leaves available
on ‘extremely limited’ basis

Education leaves are now available to
University faculty, but Provost Richard Hill says
the University will make extremely limited use of
the semi-sabbaticals
However, 12 faculty at state higher education
institutions already have requested the leaves,
according to Bill Lemman, the State System of
Higher Education's vice chancellor for adminis
tration
Chancellor Roy Lieuallen has approved the
requests from four faculty each at Oregon State
University, the Oregon Institute of Technology
and the Oregon Health Sciences University,
Lemman says
No formal requests have yet been made at the
University, but there have been two informal
requests, Hill says
The State Board of Higher Education ap
proved the education leaves at its March meeting
largely as a money-saving device Faculty who
choose the option get a leave with half pay but
don’t have to meet the restrictions imposed on
faculty taking sabbatical leaves
The state board s guidelines do specify that
the leave must have an educational purpose Of
the faculty taking the leaves so far, more than half
are going to complete their doctoral degrees,
Lemman says.
No limit has been set on the number of faculty
who can take the leaves, he says.
Hill says the leaves will be allowed at the
University only in “rare cases” where the leave is
in the best interest of the school, such as securing
additional resources such as grants and con
tracts. "I don’t even want to encourage that,” he
says.
Everyone recognizes that the leaves are not
in the best interests of the University, Hill says,
noting that the faculty is already strapped and the
leaves could further drain tight resources.
Although he says he doubts the leaves will be
used on this campus, he says he doesn't want to
rule out the possibility of granting one or two
Certain departments won’t be eligible at all,
because of the demands on faculty, he says.
Lemman says institutions are responsible for
deciding whether they can spare the faculty
member for up to a year. The state system office
inspects the requests only to make sure they meet
state board guidelines, he says
