SUPPORT FOR CONFERENCES AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
When funds are available, the University reimburses faculty members for some of the
costs of attending professional meetings at which they present a paper or serve on a standing
committee reporting to such a meeting. Support for these activities is budgeted through the
academic departments, and arrangements are made with the departmental chair. A travel
authorization form must be completed, signed, and filed with the
Travel Office for any overnight
trip before travel commitments may be made. Such prior authorization is necessary in order to
receive State reimbursement.
RESEARCH AND STUDY SPACE
Within the limited physical facilities of the University, every effort is made to
provide faculty appropriate office space. Study carrels for faculty are also available in
Fenwick Library. To the extent possible, laboratory facilities and computer time are
made available to those whose research requires such support.
