Contract faculty eligible for paid leave
After 25 years as musicians in the Lydian String Quartet, music professors Judith Eissenberg and Mary Ruth Ray will take paid leaves next fall for the first time in their careers.That's because, beginning next fall, contract faculty members who have been here for an "extended period of time" will be eligible to take paid leave, Dean of Arts and Sciences Adam Jaffe said.Both Eissenberg, who teaches chamber music performance, and Ray, who is the department's chair, are contract faculty members, whose jobs are reviewed each time their contracts expire.
