As a public university and agency of the State of Connecticut, the University draws funding from a wide range of sources including students, taxpayers and benefactors. The University has an obligation to these constituencies to use its funds prudently in pursuit of its mission and goals. All uses of University Funds, therefore, must be directly related to University business and in the best interests of the University. The policy on the Use of University Funds for Gifts, Social Functions, Sponsorships & Donations provides guidance to departments and employees when considering the use of University Funds for gifts, social functions, sponsorships and donations.
Please familiarize yourself with the full policy available at http://policy.uconn.edu/2015/07/10/use-of-university-funds-for-gifts-social-functions-sponsorships-donations/.
