Good morning fellow list-servers - "long time listener/first time caller"

We have a scenario we hope to get some feedback on:

 

A professor, the director of clinical studies in our Psychology Department, places graduate students in external clinical and hospital sites for supervised clinical counseling experience.  The clinical sites pay our university, and we in turn pay the students, cover the fringes, and the other associated costs such as malpractice insurance, etc.

 

Question 1)  Would these types of agreements run through your Office of Sponsored Programs or equivalent?

 

Question 2)  If they do run through your OSP, would they recover full (or partial) IDC?

 

Question 3)  If they don’t run through your OSP, do they run through the university at all or do you simply defer to the clinical site hiring the student directly?

 

We are running into resistance from our faculty member with the recovery of any IDC's on this and similar projects.  His take is that no other university is collecting IDC and that many are not running them through their OSP offices. 

Thanks in advance for any and all responses!
