Re: base salary question for faculty working at two different institutions Bonnie Kwit 07 Jun 2006 09:49 EST
If you're submitting a proposal on behalf of YOUR University then you can only request a portion of the University base. It would have nothing to do with the Research Institute. And visa versa..If the Research Institute were submitting a proposal for her it would be her base of that payroll system.

We have a faculty member who claims she has a statement from our administration that her time and effort is distributed as follows: 60% at our college and 40% at a research institute. She explained that of the 60% effort she works here, 48% is her regular faculty obligations for which she is paid $60,000 and 12% is for research activity for which she has been receiving $15,000 for the last few years. The other 40% of her time is paid by the research institute for which she is paid $36,669. Thus, she says her base salary is a total of the three figures ($111,669) because it represents 100% of the time and effort for which she receives salary. She is bringing me the written agreement because she wants us to use the $111,669 as her base salary in her grant proposals. I have not received the documentation yet, but wanted your input. I thought that if we annualized her salary we would use the salary figures that the college pays her and release her from obligations here. This of course would actually increase the base that she has calculated. Any input would be greatly appreciated. By the way, she is on a 9-month contract here and I am not sure if her contract is 9 or 12 months at the other institution. Thanks.
