Abstract: Utilizing the concepts of time and academic capitalism in the neoliberal university, this qualitative study examined 12 tenured faculty members’ sensemaking of productivity from their sabbatical leaves from one research university in the United States. The commodification of time and outputs from the sabbatical in remunerative terms as well as internalized feelings of guilt or shame were themes that emerged from this study.
