1) CAPP encourages grant-writers to first consider other possibilities (e.g., stipends,
summer pay) as alternatives to course releases.
2) If a course release is deemed necessary to build into a project, The CAPP suggests the following criteria be met:
a. The course release should be used for substantial curricular development only (e.g., developing new curricular programs), not grant-funded research.
b. The proposed course release is not predicted to negatively impact the progress
of students through the major/toward graduation.
c. In general, CAPP prefers a course release that is not predicted to need
replacement. If the course would need to be replaced by a partial-FTE, it should
be of extraordinary benefit to the academic program.
For grants that incorporate multiple course releases, grant writers should submit annual plans summarizing net impact on the curriculum for CAPP approval.
