OMB A-21! CAS standards! PI's leaving! Sub recipient monitoring! Ever wondered how "everyone else does it?" What topics keep you up at night? Do PUI's and Minority Serving Institutions have different issues than larger organizations or do we just need to approach the same issues with a different attitude because of differences in organizational culture? How DO others survive in this environment? Come join us as we discuss topics that are perennially a problem and the new ones that pop up every day. This workshop will focus on identifying and discussing what's hot right now in ensuring our organizations operate efficiently and effectively, adhere to the various sponsor guidelines, encourage our faculty and still manage to recruit and develop staff. This is a workshop you help design. Participants are encouraged to submit their questions, challenges, "this happened at another school" anecdotes, and successful survival tips ahead of time to a listserv that will be set up to help facilitate pre-workshop communication between participants and the workshop faculty. So, come prepared to share your successful experiences and gain an understanding of how other PUIs thrive and manage the research enterprise at their campuses as this will be a very interactive workshop.
