On February 4, 1991, the Chancellor’s Office issued a memorandum
under Vice Chancellor Herbert L. Carter’s signature which
stated, “Effective immediately, any CSU system-wide employee who
authorizes work to be commenced before an officially signed
contract is in place will be held personally financially
responsible for any expenditure related to such contract”.
Cal State San Marcos has elected to implement this policy in
keeping with its obligation to protect the resources of the
University and to provide for fairness in its procurement
activities. CSUSM defines “work” as any transaction requiring
the University to spend or receive funds, provide or receive
services, and/or otherwise commit its resources. Any employee
who has questions regarding personal liability when involved in
University-related purchasing activities should contact
Procurement & Support Services at (760) 750-4555.
