Hi Everyone, I apologize, because I meant to note this in my prior email because we have so many new faculty this year. Faculty who have been here awhile know this, but this is just a reminder for the new people of the 33% rule. Faculty can only be paid up to three months of summer pay from any source. That means if you are teaching during the summer that goes towards the 33%. We don't know this is happening sometimes because it may be another Unit processing a summer payment for you (i.e., OSCAR Office). The Provost Office looks at this carefully and notifies us if someone is over the 33%. During the summer this can be painful because it requires paying back the overage. I just wanted to pass this along. Thank you, Terri Terri Mancini, MPA Director, Sponsored Research Administration Volgenau School of Engineering George Mason University 4400 University Boulevard, MS 4A3 Fairfax, VA 22030 703-993-9550 PH 703-993-9641 FAX
