PAU has a new policy on the use of drawings as a form of compensation.

Under the revised policy, researchers are required to:

a. Use the term “drawing” rather than “lottery” or “raffle”

b. Provide a clear statement that any individual who contacts the researcher or who is contacted by the researcher is entitled to enter the “drawing”

c. State clearly how to enter into the “drawing”
