I would think this would be okay. He has to take work home. Course development and other things that can't be done at
school. Plus many college have on-line courses the he would have to review. Plus work from students that have to be grades. Works for me.

Form 2106

If it qualifies, it probably have to be on form 2106, Unreimbursed Employee related Expenses.

Sounds right to me. I thought now days that college professors already had all that stuff supplied to them. Maybe things are tighter than I thought across college campuses.
