The purpose of the Colgate University travel policy is to provide faculty and staff with specific guidelines covering travel, entertainment and other business expenses as well the documentation required to substantiate such expenses and/or reimbursement. 

It is not possible to anticipate all situations that may occur traveling for or entertaining on behalf of Colgate. As a result, these policies are meant to serve as guidelines to follow when incurring work related expenses. It is expected that employees will interpret these polices to keep expenses to a minimum and ensure that such expenses are directly related to an employee’s job responsibilities and the mission of the University. The primary responsibility for adherence to these guidelines rests with the individual and his/her respective department head/supervisor. Up-to-date information on Colgate’s travel policy information including current per diem reimbursement limits can be found on the Purchasing Department's webpage.
