Re: Code on Allowable Time on Federal Grants ?? MSU 20 Jul 2001 10:58 EST

Charlie:

I may have confused the issue.  I'm specifically referring to the fed's take
on a faculty not being able to devote more than 100% of the time to a grant
or grants.  For instance, Professor John Doe receives an NIH grant and will
devote 100% of his time to the project. Then, the prof wants to assist in
another grant and devote, let's say 20% of his time to this other grant. The
total time devoted would be 120% which unallowable by the fed.
