Checking into Hotel:   Participants lodging at the La Quinta Inn will check in under their own name, having already called and reserved a room in their name under the Texas A&M PEER Workshop block of rooms.  Upon check in, participants must present La Quinta with a letter directing them to bill our account for their room.  This letter will be mailed to participants needing lodging as the workshop date approaches. 

Travel and Meal Reimbursement:   Participants living in the same city (leaving for and returning from the workshop at the same time of day) should carpool to the workshop if at all possible. Texas law prevents reimbursement of  individuals who do not carpool when appropriate.  Before leaving home, participants should record their beginning odometer reading for their vehicle as participants are required to keep a beginning and ending odometer reading to and from the workshop, and to keep all meal receipts in order to obtain reimbursement.  For participants lodging at the La Quinta Inn, a Continental Breakfast will be provided consisting of bagels, donuts, cereals, milk, juices, coffee and fruit, etc. if teachers choose to partake.  

            During the trip to and from the workshop, teachers driving to the workshop will be reimbursed for automobile travel at a rate of $0.30 per mile traveled per vehicle.  All workshop participants will be reimbursed up to $25 per day per teacher for meals (up to $6 for breakfast, $7 for lunch, and $12 for dinner) provided that participants fill out and sign a travel reimbursement form (which will be provided at the workshop) including the participant’s name, mailing address, and social security number, plus a beginning and ending odometer reading for the trip.  Reimbursements for meals and travel, and payment for lodging for any teacher will not exceed a total of $200.
   
NOTE: Alcohol costs incurred during meals IS NOT considered part of “meals”, and cannot be reimbursed.  To obtain reimbursement for travel and meals, participants must write their names on any meal receipts and return them with their Travel Reimbursement Form to:
