Whenever the educational program of a newly established campus of the California State University is, during the first year of its existence, limited to an off-campus educational program rather than a regular educational program, any employee transferring from an existing campus of the California State University to the newly established campus of the California State University before or during the first three academic years of the newly established campus shall be entitled to retain all sickness and injury, all sabbatical and other leave rights, and all seniority and tenure rights accumulated as an employee of the existing campus as though the rights had been accumulated as an employee of the newly established campus.
