University executive officers, senior administrative officers, and professional-administrative personnel are encouraged to engage in professional campus/community activities (e.g., teaching regular classes and seminars, participating in conferences, workshops, colloquia, etc.). Such activities are considered contributed service for which added compensation is not provided, except pursuant to specific terms of appointment or in circumstances specified below.

In order for added compensation to be paid for an added service, the need for the performance must be deemed extraordinary and far beyond regular position requirements, and the payment must be recommended by the staff member's unit administrative officer, and receive prior approval of the appropriate University executive officer.
