Gemstone Mentors Compensation
Mentors are compensated with a stipend each semester. A Gemstone mentor can be Faculty/Staff or Adjunct employee.
Appointments are processed and routed electronically through the ARS system for all overloads; and submitted for approval (via email) to the Chair or supervisor for the mentor's department and /or college in accordance with the college's mission, the department's strategic plan, and the need to balance each person's workload. All requests for overload are then electronically routed to Academic Affairs for approval. In addition, individuals who are not already in the ARS system must submit a copy of his/her CV.
Mentors may choose between two arrangements for payment:
- Funds can be transferred to an expense account to be used at your discretion for research travel, periodicals, materials, etc. Your financial personnel will be responsible for handling this process and you must rely on them.
- The second arrangement is to have funds added to your paycheck biweekly. For those mentors who are not associated with academic departments, payment arrangements must be done on a One Payment Appointment.
