Affiliates
Separate entities are affiliated with the university because the services they provide help advance the university鈥檚 mission. The university has a vital interest in and recognizes the value of each affiliated entity. The university is committed to ensuring that each affiliate operates in a proper manner, while seeking to maintain the appropriate independence from its affiliates.
To protect the university鈥檚 interests, the following principles shall apply to the university鈥檚 relationships with affiliates:聽
The creation and activities of affiliates must promote, advance, or complement the educational, scientific, research, charitable, or cultural activities of the university or one or more of its units.聽
The university will monitor affiliates through a regular reporting process.聽
Affiliates must adhere to high standards of ethics and must avoid conflicts of interest.聽
The university鈥檚 relationship with an affiliate is not necessarily intended to be perpetual. Relationships with affiliates will be examined periodically to determine whether the affiliate relationship will be continued or whether a sunset provision is appropriate.聽
Through the application of these principles, this policy provides a framework to guide the university in establishing and monitoring its relationships with affiliates.聽
