Collegial Exchange and Exploitation

Author(s): Caroline Whitbeck

You have been asked to give a talk at another university on your view of how your sub-area will evolve in the next ten years. After the talk one of the faculty members suggests that you write up some of your ideas in more detail and he will help find funding for them. You do not like to think ill of people, but you have some reason to think this person borrows too freely from others.

What would be a prudent way of responding that would also keep open channels for future collegial exchange?
