[Teaching-Faculty] Call for Sabbatical Leave Applications for 2026-2027

[Office of the Provost/SVPAA]

Good afternoon colleagues,

I am pleased to be reaching out to you today with my first communication.
I have met many people already in my first week, but there are many more of
you I have not met yet. I am Marcus Marenda, newly hired into the role of
Associate for Academic Budgets & Resources (formerly called Assistant to
the Provost).

The Office of the Provost invites those eligible to apply for Sabbatical
Leave for the upcoming 2026-2027 academic calendar.  To learn more about
eligibility and the application process, please review the Sabbatical Leave
Information page. If you would like to apply for a sabbatical for next
academic year, please email me at mmare006 at plattsburgh.edu and I will add
you to the application process in Watermark. Completed applications are due
by Friday, October 10, 2025.

Please remember that sabbatical awards are highly competitive, and only a
limited number can be given in any one year. Sabbatical awards are
available in three forms:

half-year at full-pay;
half-year at half-pay; and
full-year at half-pay;

The number of sabbatical awards will be limited by the funding available
and the quality of the applications. In some cases, if a faculty member is
not approved for a half-year full-pay sabbatical, they may be offered the
opportunity to take the sabbatical at half-year half-pay. In each case,
sabbatical awards cannot adversely affect the teaching/learning environment
for students or other reasonable academic services provided by the
university.
