Faculty Tracking Lisa Richman 26 Jun 1995 19:43 EST

In response to Lou Pellegrino's (Purdue Research Foundation) query for a
system that will "credit" faculty efforts on large multidiciplinary
proposals.......

Serendipity......
 See the June 26, 1995 issue of The Scientist, PAGE 10:

"Restructuring Academia For the Next Century"
subheading: "Standardized Faculty Recognition"
Author:  Rodney R. Dietert (Cornell)

Times are changing, we need to track more than dollars (particulary as
dollars become more scarce)!

FPPS, in RAMS may be what you are looking for, but (as you say) one of the
most difficult things will be convincing your "admins and staffers" that
tracking the detail (and changing business practice) is worth the effort.  I
encourage you to rally your faculty behind you!
