[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, take the sabbatical and a 1 year LOA and see about getting some work done while abraod but also reflect on what you want to do. Also write some research grants so you can take a buy out when like 2nd semester, year 3 or 4.

For year 3, remember semesters are short. Fly in the day before it starts, get your 15 weeks. If you can give a take home final that can be upload to canvas or scanned by a TA. That will shave off a week or so--you might be able to swing it with no class after Thanksgiving for fall. I have seen faculty do this and if the staff like you as well as the admin, then it is entirely do-able. [/quote]

The kids are the issue with year 3. Her exec husband won’t be able to solo parent 4 kids for 15 weeks.[/quote]

Depending on where they are, they will having a nanny, cook, and driver.  I guess I was taking that for granted. This is where family might be able to help, especially if a buy out is possible for spring. [/quote]
