Bill Watterson took two sabbaticals from writing Calvin and Hobbes: the first from May 6th, 1991 to February 1st, 1992, and the second from April 4th through December 31, 1994. At the end of the first sabbatical, Watterson changed the rearrangeable Sunday strip format to the unbreakable 1/2 page design. The concept of 9-month sabbaticals was novel at the time, and began to be recognized by other comic strip artists afterwards. As such, Watterson effectively popularized the concept of sabbaticals.

- A sabbatical was a practice existing in several cultures, consisting of taking time off from one's career. At some point before 2367, the parents of Willie and Jake Potts went on sabbatical, but arranged for their sons to remain on the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "Brothers" ) In 2374, Tora Ziyal took a sabbatical from a Bajoran university to visit her father on Deep Space 9. (DS9: "Sons and Daughters")

- A sabbatical was a practice existing in several cultures, consisting of taking time off from one's career. At some point before 2367, the parents of Willie and Jake Potts went on sabbatical, but arranged for their sons to remain on the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "Brothers" ) William T. Riker, who during an 2367 undercover mission on Malcor III as Rivas Jakara was taken to a hospital and discovered to have an alien physiology, lied to his doctors by explaining that his irregularities were the result of inherited genetic traits, which could have been explained by his doctor if she wasn't on a sabbatical. (TNG: "First Contact" ) In 2369, after Jean-Luc Picard was turned into a child as the result of a transporter problem, Deanna Troi argued that some people would find it hard to accept a twelve-year old captain. After going over several alternatives to commanding a starship, Troi suggested that he take a sabbatical and focus on archaeology for a few years. (TNG: "Rascals" ) In 2374, Tora Ziyal took a sabbatical from a Bajoran university to visit her father on Deep Space 9. (DS9: "Sons and Daughters")
