All memberships are held in the name of the university. Memberships that clearly relate to the university as a whole may be paid from the university's Institutional Membership account, subject to available funding and president's approval. Memberships relating to specific departments or functions are funded from departmental or college accounts.
Memberships must be processed as an electronic “Purchase Requisition.”
All memberships must be approved at the president or vice president level. This approval may not be delegated.
Memberships to be funded from the university's Institutional Membership account must be routed to the president's office for requisition entry.
Memberships in a Chamber of Commerce may not be purchased with state funds.
Memberships for the university library are exempt from this policy, unless using the Institutional Membership account.
