PROFESSIONAL TRAVEL FUNDS. 1. The Administration recognizes that professional travel may enhance a faculty member’s professional contribution to FHSU. 2. FHSU will provide an average of at least $350 per year per requesting faculty member meeting department criteria for use in travel activities. Requesting faculty members must meet criteria established for such travel through various sources and or funds. Faculty members may receive travel funds, if available, through department expenditures of Other Operating Expense (OOE) monies, Faculty Development Fund, grants, college funds, endowment funds and other sources. These additional funds may have requirements or criteria that the faculty member’s travel funding proposal must meet. The criteria for OOE funds for use in travel activity are the prerogative of the department chair in consultation with department members. 3. FHSU Administration will request Department Chairs to maintain records and report amounts provided to each faculty member in their department for professional travel and this report shall contain the source of the funding used for travel. No individual faculty member will be specifically identified. FHSU will provide this information to FHSU-AAUP by February 15 of each year. The information in the report will be for the most recently completed fiscal year. 4. All state funds used for travel are subject to limitations by legislative or administrative action.
