Re: Residual Funds Susan A. Brown 22 Aug 2005 11:47 EST

The Medical University of South Carolina reviews this on a case by case
basis.  If the PIs Department Chair will allow them to transfer
unrestricted funds, we allow it.  In one situation where a division
director transferred, their unrestricted residual funds were used to
cover a division deficit.  They were allowed to transfer the
difference.  We try to maintain a good relationship for possible future
collaborations.
Thanks,
