Faculty Handbook 2008-2009

Full-time tenured and tenure-track faculty will use their PD Accounts to fund professional travel.

Other full-time faculty will be reimbursed up to $1200 for travel to a professional conference to deliver a paper.

Continuing part-time faculty should make a request for funding for travel to professional conference to deliver a paper.

You have two options for accounting for your food costs on the travel report form: 1) You can submit a per diem of $39 per day without receipts, or 2) You can enter the exact amount for the meals on the travel report form and include the receipts. The maximum per diem for food is $75.

An additional $50 per day is available for child care above regular child care expenses.

Advance payment of registration fees, airfare and other travel expenses is considered a travel advance. These advance payments will be charged to a separate travel advance account under your name until you submit your Personal Travel Expense Report at the end of the trip. Advance payments can be reimbursed by Denison on a Request for Payment with receipts attached, or in the case of registration fees they may be paid directly by Denison from a Request for Payment with appropriate documentation attached. It is important that you include any travel advances on your Travel Report. Within two weeks of the trip, please submit the Reimbursement of Personal Travel Expense form to the Provost's Office. This form should itemize all expenses of the trip, including advance payments, and needs to have receipts attached for individual expenses greater than $10. The form should indicate the account numbers to be charged for trip expenses. The Accounting Office will then pay any remaining travel expense reimbursement due you from this form following the procedures for Payment of University Expenses.
