B. Supply guidelines for expenditures.

  1. Format for selection and distribution of scholarships, grants, equipment, programs, etc.
  2. Whose authority do we honor for expenditures? (Department head or Dean suggested.)

C. Raising of the funds.

  1. College deans and department heads may approve seeking of gifts in their college from students, faculty, and alumni.
  2. Any off-campus solicitation should be approved by the University Administrative Council and by the Foundation Executive Committee.
  3. The UNI Foundation will assist in an advisory capacity and will serve as receiver and conservator of funds; and the Alumni office can furnish mechanical assistance, alumni lists and mailing help.

D. Earnings

Interest as derived from pooled investments will be apportioned on accounts with balances of over $100 except on accounts funded by the Foundation, and except on self-liquidating endowments or one-time public-supported memorials. Earnings on pooled investments will be paid on average balances for the year, or proportionately on the length of time a fund account has been invested, but one percent will be retained by the Foundation to offset investments and management costs.
