Faculty Time Off Dates

FTO Guidance Dates: Per CBA Article 16.5, please note "bargaining unit members shall receive fifteen (15) days off during the nine (9) month contract period. These days include three (3) days of Winter Closure when the University is closed for business. The remaining twelve (12) days off shall be used when classes are not in session or as specifically approved in advance. Bargaining unit members shall request faculty time off prior to taking time off, with sufficient notice of the request prior to the date of the absence. Requests for time off may be taken after approval in writing by the dean, director, or designee. Requests for faculty time off shall not be unreasonably denied as we encourage bargaining unit members to take Faculty Time Off for their well being. Those bargaining unit members whose professional responsibilities are not instructional or in any other way coincidental with the academic calendar may use time off while classes are in session provided other professional obligations are met." 

The calendar dates listed are based off the academic calendar year and FTO dates are highlighted for suggestions.  

Please note that faculty members on alternate contract year will have different dates, and will need to work with their dean/director's offices for their FTO.
