External Consulting Agreements

External Consulting Agreements are considered to be personal arrangements between the WCM faculty member and the Company.  Therefore, WCM does not provide legal review or negotiation assistance for such agreements or, otherwise, represent faculty members in this individual capacity.  However, for WCM’s protection, University Counsel requires that a non-negotiable Addendum be signed by the Company and incorporated into all employee Consulting Agreements.  The faculty member will also need his/her department chair’s approval in order to pursue the outside consulting, and must update their Conflicts Survey accordingly.
