The University will pay expenses incurred by faculty members attending professional meetings up to a maximum of $600. This amount may be accumulated by an individual faculty member to a maximum of two years.

To be applied against this amount are all items of expense, including fees paid to travel bureaus and the regular charges made for the use of University cars.

For College faculty, plans for attendance at professional meetings must be made in advance with the chairperson of the department. A review of the expense involved as well as provisions for classes to be missed should be discussed. As approved by the department chairperson, plans for the trip should be reported in advance to the Provost.

In those instances when a faculty member is asked to service as an official representative of the University, the expenses so incurred will not, of course, be charged against the professional meeting allowance.
