Jim,
Salary savings resulting from sponsored programs at the University of
Arkansas  revert to the dean of the college in which the PI/PD is a member.
 The policy is not written.  The dean can carry over funds from one fiscal
year to the next.  A dean may share with a generating dept. if the dept.
makes a case.

to share, or if you can point me to online descriptions of policies, I
would appreciate it.
