Political Candidacy

State and Federal Offices

If you become a candidate for elective state and federal offices, you will be required to obtain a leave of absence for the period of such candidacy. If elected, you will be required to resign your position with the University before taking office. Determination of the period of such candidacy and of the time of the required leave of absence shall rest with the president of the University (see Section 4, On the Job, Conflict of Interest).

Temporary or Part-Time Offices

If you become a candidate or serve in such offices as the State Board of Education and elective non-state or non-federal offices of a temporary or part-time nature, you are not required to obtain a leave of absence (such as School Board member, City Council member, etc.). However, suitable and mutually satisfactory arrangements are to be made with appropriate administrative officers for performance of your regular duties.
