POLICY 07:03:00

TRAVEL EXPENSES FOR MULTIPLE-SITE INSTRUCTION

Purpose

The purpose of this policy is to establish the circumstances under which multiple-
site travel is eligible for travel reimbursement.

  1. Regular full-time instructors who teach classes at multiple sites may be paid a travel
    allowance for travel between these sites. The only miles which can be claimed under this policy are
    miles traveled from site #1 to site #2 or additional sites as appropriate. Commuting miles to site
    #1 or miles home from the original teaching site will not be reimbursed.
    Example 1: When teaching Monday, Wednesday, Friday at the Hardin Valley Campus and Tuesday,
    Thursday at the Blount County Campus, mileage reimbursement cannot be claimed. Each site is
    considered the daily site campus since travel between sites is not required.
    Example 2: When teaching at the Blount County Campus then traveling to the Hardin Valley Campus on
    the same day to teach, mileage reimbursement can be claimed.
    Mileage will be reimbursed using the standard mileage scale between sites as listed in the college
    travel procedures.
  2. Mileage for office hours, meetings, demonstrations, advising or other work-related
    nonteaching activities will not be reimbursed.
  3. Part-time faculty are not eligible for local travel reimbursements.
