Should the appointee fail to report for assignment on the date noted in the offer letter, the employing unit must, if it wishes to terminate employment, notify Human Resource Services immediately, preferably via phone or email. The department should then submit a PAF (Personnel Action form) through the appropriate college dean or division head, so that Human Resource Services may be notified that the appointment is being canceled. Similar notification should be made when a student resigns an assistantship before the official appointment end date. In this latter case, the letter must indicate the date on which the student last worked. Failure to report such situations promptly can result in overpayment of the assistant.
A graduate assistantship may be terminated, according to the following policies and procedures. (NOTE: Where reference is made to the "head of the employing unit," this should be understood to mean "head of the employing unit, or his or her designee.")
