From lmason at osrhe.edu Thu Aug 2 09:43:20 2007 From: lmason at osrhe.edu (Mason, Linda) Date: Thu, 2 Aug 2007 09:43:20 -0500 Subject: [Okgrantsmanship] Need information on voluntarily uncommitted cost share Message-ID: <8775EA78FE232744BC67431D563D6B4A0A5EDD@postman1.osrhe.edu> The PUI Neighborhood has a committee dedicated to organization and communication to the PUI members of NCURA. One of the items is to submit a content article by November 16 for the NCURA newsletter. We need some ideas for the next article (the voluntary uncommitted cost share topic seems to be a strong contender) and to find someone to volunteer to write it. I will be happy to write such an article if you will tell me what you do at your campus about voluntarily uncommitted cost sharing on grant projects. If you do such a thing. Another thing the committee sponsors is the Online Chat, which is scheduled for 9/26 at 2:00 PM. We will need some "filler" questions or "leader" questions in case no one posts questions on the chat. By having canned questions, it will allow the chat to go on. Fran and Courtney can also "can" some answers to those questions. The advantage is when NCURA posts the transcripts to the online chat. The chat is about setting up an office of sponsored programs. Please send me ASAP your questions about what you think is most important to know. Such as, how do you negotiate an adequate budget? What types of communication are best to recruit cooperation from the faculty? What kinds of training impact the faculty most effectively? What can you do to prepare for time crunches? See http://www.ncura.edu/content/regions_and_neighborhoods/neighborhoods/pre dominantly_undergrad/town_hall.php and scroll down to chat. You will see the transcript to the export control (we also sent out a PowerPoint prior to the online chat that has lots of information, but this is not a requirement of the chat). * By Friday, August 10, 2007, please send 2-3 questions to the PUI Subcommittee Listserv (recommend reading the article first). I would like to know who of you are members of NCURA? Anita, C.J., Vivian, and who else? Linda Mason, Ed.D.
