Another issue that I have not seen mentioned (but I'm scanning quickly)
is whether the other institution is a state institution in your state
and what your state law says. In Tennessee, an individual cannot be an
employee of two state institutions at the same time--a dual services
contract (or subaward) would have to be done.

It would be a good case study--and I might use it in the future.
However, as the director of sponsored projects at a PUI that is pretty
new
to research administration I am often surprised by all of the things
that I
take for granted that my constituents have never heard of.
I often have to explain "why" things are done to people that have always
functioned "just fine thank you" under a gentleman's agreement and a
handshake.
Bringing in more structure and oversight is a hard (but necessary) sell.
I suspect that folks at institutions further along the developmental
continuum have the policies and procedures they have because somewhere
along
the line things did go wrong, people or the institution did get burned,
and
lessons were learned--the hard way.
Rather than go this route, I would like to bring these lessons to my
institution now and prevent future problems.

Pam,
This one sounds like one of those case studies that you do at
conferences!
I can think of many reasons why this is a bad idea, but will let the
listserve respond since I can't possibly get them all into one response
without taking up a significant part of my afternoon.
Larry

I received an inquiry from a faculty member who cooperated in the
submission
of a proposal to a federal agency from another institution (without
going
through channels here). This is a tenure track associate professor.
The proposal was funded.
I suggested that we set up a subcontract from the awarded institution
to our
institution for a portion of her salary during the academic year.
The faculty member tells me why bother since she can reduce her time at
our
institution and become an employee of the other institution and make
extra
money without a sub. This may or may not be true, but can someone give
me
some reasons why this would be a bad idea?
