Each year three new people are selected and two will carry over to the next year. A sabbatical leave can only be granted when the person has served continuously for five or more years. A faculty member on sab batical leave will receive 75% salary if they will be gone an en tire academic year, 90% for two quarters and full salary for one quarter. Each year $25,000 is budgeted, which will cover the costs of the salaries of the part- time faculty, who will take over the positions of the people on sabbatical leaves. The way the faculty members are selected is that “each com mittee member individually ranks an applicant.” The results of the rankings will decide who will go on a sabbatical leave, and who won’t. “Every year I’ve been very impressed with the quality of the applications. They are to improve the College program and that is good for the faculty and it is good for the college. In the long run the students will benefit,” Knutson concluded.
