Academic Conferences: If you will be traveling for an academic conference, please notify the Assistant Dean of your plans for class coverage in writing no later than two weeks before your travel dates. 

Note: Additionally, it is only necessary for you to email the Assistant Dean if you need to make any alternate arrangements for your classes. We also ask instructors to make up any missed classes, if it is possible to do so.

In instances where the course has a waitlist, if the student is in the first place on the waitlist, please send the Assistant Dean an email requesting that the student be registered as an additional student. Faculty should only contact the Assistant Dean on behalf of a student if there is a compelling reason (e.g., graduating senior) and a seat in the room. Please also keep in mind classrooms do have set fire code capacities. We cannot, by law, go over the room capacity.

Please do remember to check your rooms before the start of the semester, so that we can minimize issues once the semester starts. You are more than welcome to make arrangements to switch rooms with other instructors on your own, but please notify the office immediately so that we can maintain the accuracy of the class schedule online and make sure there are no unforeseen issues.

1. Internship Agreement

   For off-site internships, contact the School of Arts and Humanities to inquire about the company/organization's affiliation with Stockton.

   All internship sites require a signed Internship Agreement that is reviewed by the Office of Staff Counsel. If there is no current affiliation with the site, the School of Arts and Humanities will work with the Office of Staff Counsel to draft an Internship Agreement for the site supervisor to review, sign, and return. Then, the Assistant Dean will sign the agreement which will be placed on file with the Dean's Office.

2. Internship Form

   Submit a completed University Internship Form to Michelle Wismer in the Dean's Office (michelle.wismer@stockton.edu).

   Please note that the Internship Form will not be approved by the Assistant Dean until the Internship Agreement has been processed. 

3. Registration

   The School of Arts and Humanities will process the Internship Form and submit the form to the Registrar's Office and the Bursar's Office. It is the responsibility of the student to confirm that they are registered for the course prior to the start of the semester.

   All 91��Ƶ must complete their registration prior to the start of their Internship.

Independent Study Forms, along with a syllabus, must be submitted to Vic Conover (vic.conover@stockton.edu) for approval prior to the start of the semester.

Internship and Indepenedent Study payments are disbursed during Pay Period 10.

The “base allocation” of faculty development funds (more broadly defined than simply travel), determined by the Deans in conjunction with the Provost, will be $1200 for tenured faculty this year.  Each full-time ARHU faculty will have access to these funds.  (Junior tenure-track faculty have access to an add­­­­­­­­itional $1400.00.)  

Applicable expenses include:

• conferences
• research expenses
• instructional expenses
• outreach activities

ARHU will try to supplement these funds when necessary, though we will try to spread our support as equitably as possible.  For faculty whose travel expenses significantly exceed the base allocation, we’ll review how much ARHU funding individual faculty members have received in the past three years to help determine who receives additional ARHU funds. 

We encourage faculty to apply for additional monies through internal grant opportunities supported by the Provost’s office. Please click on the link on the Grants webpage (https://stockton.edu/research-sponsored-programs/index.html) about Internal Funding Opportunities. Most of these funds have specific required forms and deadlines.

Faculty may still transfer unused funding to colleagues in ARHU programs if they so choose.

We ask that all faculty encumber funds needed for travel by April 1, even if they are traveling after the spring semester ends and before the next academic year begins, so that we may plan for any additional funds that might be needed beyond the guaranteed base allocation.

Requests for a van must be arranged through Brian Lyons. Your request should include the size of van needed, date, pick up and drop off time, driver’s name, a copy of the driver’s license, travel destination and reason for van use.

Stockton has migrated from travel credit cards managed by Commerce Bank to PCards managed by Bank of America. Primary use for most credit cardholders is for travel. Some cardholders now have purchasing capability along with travel functionality. 

Purchases made with PCard are the same as if using a personal credit card. Stockton’s use of purchase orders is being phased out for most purchases. 

If using the card solely for travel (airfare, registration, lodging, car rental, parking, etc.), receipts are still necessary to reconcile charges. Receipts can be an email, photo from phone, or physical receipt. Once expense has been posted to credit card, scanned receipts are uploaded into WORKS, assigned an accounting string, and posted to the appropriate program. 

Purchases with a PCard will operate in the same manner when it comes to receipts. Purchases can be done online or on location.   Single item PCard purchase cannot exceed $2,999. Items exceeding this amount must be ordered using a Purchase Order. 
Vendors not registered as a business with the state of New Jersey are limited to $4,950 in spending. If you are not sure, contact Purchasing for a list of vendors. (B&H is on the list.) PCards cannot be used for Ebay purchases. 

NOTE:  we do not pay taxes for purchases. If taxes are applied, it is the cardholder’s responsibility to have tax removed. Tax exempt forms can be found by typing PCARD in search box on Stockton’s homepage and then selecting Account Information.

All items purchased using a Purchase Order or out-of-pocket reimbursement are considered University property. All books, computers, technology, software, paints, costumes, etc. must remain as property of the University.

Sales tax will not be reimbursed for any out -of-pocket reimbursement.
