Issued By:       T. Culbert

If a faculty or staff member serving as a consultant to an outside agency or company requires the use of university facilities and/or equipment for purposes of the consultantship, such usage shall be only on an occasional and brief basis, and only with permission of the department Chairman or Campus Director. Such permission shall include agreement upon any appropriate provisions for liability and/or fees. Should more extensive or frequent usage be needed, the development of a grant or contract between the agency/ company and the University would be appropriate.

A student engaged in a project related to or part of a consultant's work should be paid by the consultant or the agency/company at a rate appropriate to the task and equivalent to the rate normally paid students for university-sponsored work.
