Preferred term
sabbaticals
Definition
- Sabbaticals, which were first introduced at Harvard in 1880, have become a form of paid leave offered to faculty by nearly all United States universities, more than 80 percent of four-year colleges, and 60 percent of two-year colleges. Sabbaticals, derived from the Hebrew Shenath shabbathon, or year of rest, commonly are defined as paid leaves of absence for purposes of personal and/or professional development.
