Department Chair: • Faculty employees serving as department chairs will not receive the department chair stipend while on sabbatical leave • For a split position with both academic year and 12-month components: • The higher appointment time base will normally be used to establish whether the faculty unit employee is placed into an academic year position or a 12-month position for the sabbatical. • Upon request of the faculty unit employee and approval of the appropriate administrator, a faculty unit employee whose majority appointment is on a 12-month basis may be assigned to an academic year position for the sabbatical
