Resolution regarding new parking plan
May 7, 2002
President Michael Adams
President's Office
Administration Building
CAMPUS
Dear President Adams:
As president of the Faculty Senate of the College of Education, I have been instructed to notify you of the following resolution passed by the Senate at its meeting on May 3, 2002:
Whereas current campus construction plans require the destruction of thousands of parking spaces already paid for through fees assessed on faculty, staff, and students, the plan to place the entire financial burden of replacing those facilities on us represents a mandated subsidy of the costs of those buildings that should be built into the construction costs and not received through higher parking fees. Accordingly, the College of Education Faculty Senate urges President Adams to halt the implementation of the proposed parking fee measure and seek alternative funding sources to recover those costs arising from campus construction.
Respectfully,
Martha Carr
President, Faculty Senate of the College of Education
CC: Irwin S. Bernstein, Presiding Officer of the Franklin College of Arts and Science Faculty Senate
VPAA and Provost Karen Holbrook
Vice President Henry Huckaby
Staff Council President Brenda Keen
Christine Langone, Chair Executive Committee University Council

- COE Policy on External Funding
Obtaining external funds is important to the future development of the College and the University. The focus on obtaining external funding for research, teaching, and service is not meant to imply that good research cannot occur without external funding or that unfunded research should not be rewarded.
This policy is designed to encourage communication and collaboration in grant writing. It supports an equitable distribution of grant-related resources within the College by providing procedures to determine the distribution of resources and for mediating disputes.
In order to avoid inequities in the distribution of grant-related resources, before a grant proposal is submitted the grant writer(s), department head(s), school director(s) and ORDO will collaborate to decide on the following issues: 1.) the percent of the indirect costs that will be returned to each PI, each department, each school and to the ORDO, 2.) whether the PI will be allowed to buyout a course, 3.) access by the PI(s) to support staff and research space. The agreed upon terms will be put in writing with a copy of the agreement going to all parties. A copy of the agreement will be kept by ORDO and will be available to the public.
In the case where there is a disagreement about grant related resources, the ORDO office will act as mediator to help settle the dispute. To do this, the ORDO staff will bring together all involved parties to discuss the problem and possible resolutions. If a mediated solution cannot be found the Associate Dean for Research will decide the solution.
