Krazy Kontracts

Richard Tomlin, University oof Newcastle, UK
Susan Birkett, Carnegie-Mellon University, PA

A light-hearted session where participants will share their favourite
stories about bizarre contract conditions demanded by sponsors.
Participants will also share experiences on how to deal with negotiators
apparently arriving from another planet.  There will of course be
serious professional development taking place since dealing with the
bizarre is just one of the many skills required of a research
administrator.

A small prize will be awarded to the most hysteria-inducing story.  A
kernel of truth will be required, although free-form embroidery around
the edges will be encouraged.
