Curriculum Vitae
The CV is the principal tool for a faculty member to record accomplishment, to monitor his/her progress, and to present work for evaluation—not least for annual reviews. Later, it is the core of the promotion dossier. The following instructional documents provide guidance for preparing/maintaining curricula vitae in keeping with University and CoLA standards and practices.

Travel
Travel support for the presentation at conferences is available from your school, CoLA, and OSPA . Note that OSPA will not give any funds unless they recieve the form prior to the travel date.
