Faculty & Prof. Staff Personal Days - Article 9.01H
Professional staff are entitled to 3 personal days and faculty 2
personal days per calendar year to be taken for personal reasons.
Whenever practicable, a request for a personal day shall be
submitted no later than 3 days in advance and shall not be unreasonably
denied. For example, today you advise your immediate supervisor
that on next Monday you will take a personal day. Some colleges
have a request form where you check off the personal day box.
That is all that is needed. No reasons are supplied for a personal day
because it is personal.
Prof. Staff Off-campus Days - Article 12.04C6
A professional staff member may request 3 off-campus days per calendar
year for participation in off-campus activities. These activities
are outside those assigned as part of the regular professional staff
workload. These days are basically free days for professional staff to
be off campus doing some related work. There is no reporting
requirement. One of these off-campus days must be the day
after Thanksgiving. These days may be granted in half day
segments or greater. Such requests shall not be unreasonably
denied.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
