Make your point. It sounds like you are saying the institutions are "stealing"
the PIs F&A. The grants are given to the institutions. The awards belong to the
institutions. The indirect costs belong to the institutions, not the highly
funded, tenured PIs. Most gifts are given to institutions, too. Normally they
are restricted and bear little F&A. Depending upon the
sponsor/terms/instution/policy, these funds can be portable if the PI leaves.
The PI, SPAs and anyone who manages these accounts should be responsible. Also,
under certain conditions, severance and unemployment CAN be charged to DHHS
grants.

I can't wait for the lawsuits to begin from highly funded, tenured faculty who
provide the institutions with a rich source of IDCs, which the SPAs are all to
happy to take their cut FIRST. Can't wait to have the NIH audit these
instituions.

We have implemented furlough days and applied them to all employees, regardless
of funding source, no exceptions. Our employees are employed by the state and
furlough days apply to all state employees, even if their salary is grant
funded.

Subject: [RESADM-L] FURLOUGHS
Good morning! It's a beautiful 75 F degrees in Flagstaff, glorious blue skies,
fragrant pine trees, trails calling and yet here I am at work. So it had better
be for something fun like the "Furlough Issue" as it has come to be known in
some locales. Still, I'd rather be outside so I'd appreciate your soonest
response to these questions!
The questions:
· Is your university (1) considering and/or (2) implementing FURLOUGHS?
· If so, will the furlough program apply to all employees regardless of
funding source?
· Alternatively, are you making an exception for "non-state" funding and
exempting those employees?
If everybody replies directly to me - xxxxxx@nau.edu - rather than to
the listserve, I promise to post a summary of responses by COB today.
Thanks,
Winnie
