590-608 IU SUBSIDIES
590 IU subsidies
When a course is cross-listed, any of the crosslisting units can be designated as the "offering" unit, and, generally, departments designate the unit supplying the instructor as the "offering" unit. However, if a course is not crosslisted with the instructor's paying department, the paying department may not be designated as the "offering" department. This is considered a subsidy. For units above the department level, the subsidies in and out are not printed because they would contain inter-college subsidies.
