If you need to get home, in particularly very late at night, we will reimburse your cab fare in some circumstances. The intent is that any one student will use this at most a few times a semester, and only for transportation between MIT and their apartment, so please don't abuse the program. Valid reasons for using this program include: working very late at MIT so usual transportation means won't work (ie, the subway stopped running because it's so late), you are sick or so exhausted that you need a cab to get home safely (at any time of the day), or you feel unsafe for some other reason. If you have questions about whether a particular circumstance would be eligible for reimbursement, please contact us. Procedure: Bring a valid receipt of your taxi fare to Gil Cordova in the Physics Fiscal Office (room NE25-4015) within 10 days of your travel. He will reimburse you from petty cash. (If he is in doubt about the circumstances, he may ask you to get permission from the WIP travel committee first.) Note: this program can only be used by women graduate students in the physics department at MIT. It is funded through the external WIP budget, and not through MIT or the physics department. |
