XVII.B.3   Sabbatical Leaves of Absence

a. Eligibility. Faculty members shall first become eligible for a Sabbatical Leave of Absence after having taught at Yale or elsewhere at the rank of associate professor or professor for four years without a paid leave of absence. Thereafter they shall be eligible after having taught in those ranks at Yale for six years without a paid leave of absence. In the School of Medicine, faculty members shall first become eligible for a Sabbatical Leave of Absence after having taught at Yale at the rank of associate professor or professor for two years. Thereafter they shall be eligible after having taught in those ranks at Yale for six full years from the end of their previous leave of absence.

b. Length and Salary. A Sabbatical Leave may be for either one semester at full salary or a full year at half salary. In the latter case, an exception will be considered to the general rule that employment may not be undertaken by a faculty member while on leave, and the faculty member may be permitted to supplement his or her Yale salary, up to full approved salary, from sources originating outside the University. A one-semester Sabbatical Leave of Absence at full salary may be combined with a one-semester leave of absence without salary to make up a full year's leave. In the School of Medicine, a Sabbatical Leave of Absence may be up to one semester at full salary or up to a full year at half salary. Although it may start or end in mid-year, faculty members do not become eligible for a subsequent Sabbatical Leave of Absence until they have taught at Yale for six full years from the end of the academic year in which their previous Sabbatical Leave was taken.
