We employ both "full-time" and "temporary" personnel on grants.  All sign a
"no funds, no job" statement.  We are trying to figure out the least
cumbersome way to do the appointment process.  I would like to know what
kinds of approval signatures are required at your institution (P.I.,
department chair, dean, VP, Provost, President, budget office, grants&
contracts, sponsored programs, etc.). --and in what order they are to be
obtained--for the hiring of grant personnel.  Thanks in advance for the
input!
