Re: Who can be a Lead PI? Susan Meslang 23 Feb 2005 17:35 EST

At my previous institution the answer is no.  I am trying to instill
this policy here also.  Several problems have developed due to allowing
project directors, paid totally by the grant, become the PIs.  Some have
given themselves pay raises - others have not spent all the money - then
requested a no cost extension thus keeping themselves employed for
another year (and committing the instution to some in kind costs!).  We
have also seen where no records where kept on an off campus project - we
are not sure if the proposed activities were completed!  I strongly
recommend that you have a person with a regular faculty position oversee
the grant project.
