Subject:      Internal Approval Forms for Sponsored Projects

We are in the process of revising our Internal Approval Form.  Several
questions come to mind as we go through this process once again.

 How often do you make changes/modifications to your form?
 What people are involved in making the decisions for the changes?
 Whose approval is sought in the final version of the form?
 Do you involve faculty/administrators(outside of Sponsored Projects
 to have input in making the changes in your form?
 Do you include a budget worksheet with your approval form and if you
 do, what purpose does it serve?
 Finally, when all is said and done, how much success do you have in
 having the faculty complete the form and is it done correctly.?  Will

 you submit a proposal at the last minute if the form is not complete?

I look forward to your responses.
