Lately I have had a rash of faculty travel authorizations that have come in after the travel has been completed. Please faculty get them to chairs/directors in enough time before the trip that they can get their signatures, plus mine and the Provost. I don't mind one once in a while, but ... Thanks for your help with this. Charlie Bullock
