How to be reimbursed as a Colloquium speaker

The Colloquium in the Life Sciences is happy to offer an honorarium of $1000 to our out-of-state speakers. We feel this is sufficient to cover all costs associated with your visit. Speakers are responsible for the cost of airfare, transportation to Fort Collins (unless a student host will be welcoming you at DIA), sleeping accommodations, and a per diem. Any money remaining is compensation for your time. Speakers are not expected to pay for a social event that may be associated with their stay.

In order to receive the honorarium, the speaker must submit the following information:

to Julie Thomas (thomasju@lamar.colostate.edu) or to the student host. Please send this information 1-2 weeks prior to your arrival in Fort Collins so we are prepared to offer you payment upfront. Based on the honorarium system, you are not required to obtain or submit receipts.
