New policy set on budget authorization
for catered events
The Office of Internal Auditing has announced a change
to the policy on catered events, effective
Sept. 1.
Any catering event charged to a University budget or foundation
account must now have the authorization of that budget’s
official administrator. The budget administrator must
sign an authorization form identifying the budget name
and area/organization number.
This form is available from the Office of Catering Arrangements,
231 Bowen-Thompson Student Union, and will be provided
at the time of the event booking. It can be returned in
person or by fax to Catering Arrangements once the budget
administrator has provided the necessary information and
signature. Only the official budget administrator’s
signature can be accepted. A designee cannot be substituted.
Needed information includes:
• Name of the budget
• Name of the budget administrator (to be confirmed
from the Treasurer’s Office)
• Area/Org for that budget
• Actual signature of the budget administrator
This information must be on file at Catering Arrangements
before the event can be officially booked.
Questions can be addressed to Catering Arrangements, 231
Bowen-Thompson Student Union, or by phone at 2-6951.
