Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the noted class of shares of the Fund for the time periods indicated, your investment has a 5% return each year, and the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, the Example shows what your costs would be based on these assumptions. The Example is based, for the first year, on the Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses and, for all other periods, on Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses.

[1] In order to limit the Fund's expenses, the Fund's adviser has contractually agreed through February 28, 2014 to pay or reimburse the Fund to the extent that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (other than Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, other indirect acquired fund expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses), for the Fund's Investor Shares, exceed 1.15% of Investor Shares' average daily net assets and, for the Fund's Advisor Shares, exceed 1.40% of Advisor Shares' average daily net assets. If there are Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, other indirect acquired fund expenses, interest, taxes, or extraordinary expenses other than estimated amounts included in Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses above, the Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses of the Fund will be higher than shown. The expense limitation may only be terminated during its term by the Board of Trustees.
[2] "Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses" shown above include expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund (e.g., indirect Other Expenses and/or Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses), and thus may be higher than the Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets included in the "Financial Highlights" section of the full prospectus. If only the operating expenses of the Fund were included in Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses, and not the indirect expenses incurred by the Fund, the Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses would be 1.15% for Investor Shares, and 1.40% for Advisor Shares.
