Reimbursable activities for SCIE258

Dickinson will be paying directly for all the required academic events listed on the course schedule. In addition, each SCIE258 student will have a budget for further "reimbursable activities." This means that Dickinson will reimburse you in cash for entrance fees and other direct costs associated with activities you choose to pursue in London or Bath, subject to a few conditions:

I encourage you to be creative in spending your reimbursable activity budget. Pursue your own interests, whatever they may be! But, if you want some suggestions, here are a few: Alexander Fleming Laboratory Museum, Anaesthesia Heritage Centre, Bethlem, Clockmakers' Museum, Florence Nightingale Museum, Freud Museum, Grant Museum, Guildhall, Houses of Parliament, Imperial war museum, Museum of London (Docklands site--the City site is on our required schedule), Roman baths (in Bath), St Paul's Cathedral, St. Bart's Hospital Museum, Tate Gallery, Tate Modern, Thames boat trip (go west from Westminster, since we go from Greenwich to Westminster as a scheduled activity), Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Whitehall, any of the guided walks offered by London Walks (highly recommended!). Also check out the Humanities course schedule and see if any of their activities might interest you.

To claim a reimbursement, put one or more receipts in an envelope. On the outside of the envelope, write your name and a list of the activities, individual costs, and total cost. I will try to give you the cash within seven days of receiving the envelope.

New, simplified system for reimbursements: Reimbursements will take place at the end of each classroom session. Write your name on each receipt. When you give me your receipts, I will immediately reimburse you.

Finally, if you signed up for any of the optional cultural activities, you may claim back your half of the cost as part of your reimbursable activity budget. Submit an envelope as above, but no receipt is required for these specific activities.
