Monday Matters
October 31, 2005
The research supplement policy (located at http://www.ed.sc.edu/facinfo) was implemented “to reward external funding efforts that benefit the College through salary savings or significant revenue generation from grants or contracts.” The policy provides for temporary salary increases for individuals who assume extraordinary workloads because of involvement in grants and contracts in addition to typical teaching and research loads. In this edition of Monday Matters I will discuss some of the subtleties of the policy and also give you an update on how we have implemented the policy.
