1. Is
the new mileage policy paying for actual mileage for
travel both ways, or just one way?
The travel policy will reimburse all
travel expenses directly associated with a faculty
member's getting to and from an Institute. This would
include travel to and from the event by a reasonably
direct route.

2. Is
there a maximum amount for the reimbursement?
No, there is not currently a maximum amount.
However, the policy is being evaluated periodically by
the Board to determine its cost and continued
feasibility.

3. Is
there a minimum number of miles that must be traveled
before reimbursement can be claimed?
No, there is not currently a minimum mileage
requirement. However, the policy is being evaluated
periodically by the Board to determine its cost and
continued feasibility.

4. Does
the mileage reimbursement cover Faculty driving within
the district of the event?
Yes, it covers all Faculty assigned to the
event, regardless of district. However, the policy is
being evaluated periodically by the Board to determine
its cost and continued feasibility.

5. If
the IRS mileage reimbursement rate changes, does the
Faculty stipend rate adjust with it?
Yes, the policy envisions reimbursement in
accordance with the IRS mileage rate in effect on the
date of the event. As of January 1, 2008, that mileage
rate had been increased to $0.505 per mile. The
Treasurer will make reimbursement rate corrections as
necessary.
