POLICY RELATED TO GIFTS, LOANS,
ENDOWMENTS AND BEQUESTS
Authority to accept gifts, loans, endowments and bequests
made to Stephen F. Austin State University is vested in the
President of the University by the Board of Regents. Gifts,
loans, endowments and bequests to any entity of the
University should be reported through normal administrative
channels.
The President of the University has been authorized to
accept gifts under the following conditions:
1. A gift, loan, endowment or bequest which may require
commitment of funds, personnel, space or other
resources shall be approved by the President prior to
any commitment or action on behalf of the University.
2. The University is authorized, with prior approval of
the President and ratification by the Board of
Regents, to accept gifts of devises of real property
for the establishment of scholarships, professorships
and other trusts for educational purposes provided
such property will not require appropriations by the
Legislature for operation, maintenance, repair or
construction of buildings.
3. Privacy of donor identity may be granted by the
University with the exceptions noted by the Open
Records Act or the Internal Revenue Service when public
recognition is not desired by the donor.
The terms under which any loan, endowment or bequest is
offered and accepted shall be provided in a written
agreement between the donor and the University. The General
Counsel of the University shall review any bequests made to
the University prior to acceptance by the President. All
original deeds of trust, wills, endowments, original
records, etc., should be forwarded to the Vice President for
University Advancement for safekeeping and permanently
stored in the University vault.
The Vice President for University Advancement is the primary
source of contact with people in the private sector. No
individual or company may be solicited for any gift, loan,
endowment, or bequest by any member of the faculty or staff
of the University until that individual has presented the
Vice President for University Advancement with a copy of the
proposal or request for funds.
Research grants or performance contracts which are privately
funded are administered through the Office of Research
Services, and are not under the provisions of this policy.
26
Acknowledgement of Gifts
In order to insure accurate recording of all private support
for the institution and to acknowledge properly private
donors1 gifts, the Vice President for University Advancement
will coordinate the acknowledgement of gifts.
Use of Gifts, Loans, Endowments and Bequests
Gifts, loans, endowments and bequests made to Stephen F.
Austin State University shall be used for the purpose
designated by the donor. If a purpose is not specified by
the donor, and the amount of the gift is $50,000 or more,
utilization shall be as directed by the Board of Regents
after consideration of recommendations by the President and
the Vice President for University Advancement. If a purpose
is not designated, and the amount of the gift is less than
$50,000, utilization shall be as directed and approved by
the President of the University.
Gifts received by the University and made payable to the
Stephen F. Austin State University Foundation, Inc., should
be forwarded to the Office of University Advancement for
transfer and deposit to the Foundation. No gifts or
bequests to the University may be transferred to the Stephen
F. Austin State University Foundation or to the Stephen F.
Austin State University Alumni Association unless the
transfer of funds is approved in writing by the donor and
the University President. In such cases, the recipient
shall use the funds in accordance with instructions given by
the donor and the University President. An account of all
letters of written permission by donors and transfers of
gifts and bequests shall be kept by the University and shall
be reported to the State Auditor.
Under the authority of the Board of Regents, the President
of Stephen F. Austin State University is empowered to
negotiate and execute the sale of marketable securities
donated to the University when such sale is directed or
allowed by the donor of said securities. The proceeds of
such sale shall be promptly deposited into a University
account, to be used as indicated by the donor, and the
details of the sale shall be reported to the Board of
Regents at its next regular meeting. All in-kind or real
estate gifts would require specific approval by the Board of
Regents for liquidation to a University cash account.
Restrictions on the expenditure of gift funds generally
reside within the following criteria:
1. A gift must be expended in accordance with the donor's
wishes.
27
2. The expenditure of the gift funds must be for the
demonstrable good of the institution.
3. The expenditure must provide no private gain to the
person controlling the expenditure of the funds.
The use of gift funds must meet all three criteria
collectively. Specific examples of expenditures from
unrestricted gifts that may be for the demonstrable good of
the institution, without private gain for the individual
expending the funds, are as follows:
1. awards that recognize or promote faculty development,
excellence in teaching, academic achievement, athletic
achievement, scholarship or service;
2. costs related to the promotion of the communication of
intellectual ideas among students, faculty, staff and
administrators of the University;
3. support of student events and activities sponsored by
the University;
4. the recruitment of highly qualified students, faculty
and staff; 2
5. costs related to the promotion of the exchange of ideas
with community leaders regarding the role of the
University and its programs in the community;
6. costs related to the conduct of accrediting agency
visits, visits by other officials from other
institutions or representatives outside higher
education;
7. costs related to the support of continuing education
activities.
Examples of expenditures which may not meet the criteria
established are as follows:
1. any expenditure that violates the restriction placed
on the gift by the donor;
2. the procurement of private property for the personal,
unofficial use of any faculty or staff member;
3. donations or other payments to a political party;
4. any other expenditure expressly prohibited by state
statute.
28
Questions concerning an expenditure meeting these criteria
should be referred to the Vice President for University
Advancement.
Real or personal property acquired through gifts, loans,
endowments or bequests is subject to the same management
requirements as other state property. Disposal of any
property acquired through gifts, loans, endowments or
bequests shall be handled in accordance with state law and
applicable University policies and procedures. Property
acquired through gifts, loans, endowment or bequest cannot
be disposed of, sold, or transferred without written
permission from the Vice President for University
Advancement and the President.
Publicity
The Vice President for University Advancement, in
coordination with the faculty/staff contact person, the
donor, and the Office of University News and Information, is
responsible for coordinating all publicity related to gifts.
Matching Gifts
Certain foundations and companies provide gifts to the
University which match contributions made by their
employees. For tax purposes, certification is required from
the University that the gift of the employee has been
received.
The matching gift forms which certify receipt of the gift,
require the signature of the Vice President for
Administrative and Fiscal Affairs or the Vice President for
University Advancement or the President. •
Foundation Support
The Office of University Advancement has the responsibility
of performing certain support functions for the Stephen F.
Austin State University Foundation, Inc. This includes
receiving, receipting, acknowledging, and reporting gifts
received by the Foundation, as provided in the Private
Support Organization Agreement between Stephen F. Austin
State University and Stephen F. Austin State University
