Patricia:

Most California State University campuses perform sponsored research within their auxiliaries.  If sponsored research is to be performed by the auxiliary, the CSU System generally requires each campus to sign a formal operating and lease agreement with the auxiliary for those activities.

The mechanics are handled differently at each campus.  At Cal Poly - SLO, a university office, Grants Development, submits faculty proposals.  The auxiliary signatory signs the proposals, reps and certs and other documents requiring signatures.  In most cases, a cover letter accompanying the proposals explains that the award will be administered by the auxiliary.

Let me know if you would like more details.

Subject: Setting Up Sponsored Agreements

Dear Colleagues,

Do you establish sponsored agreements in your auxiliaries?  If yes, how do
you handle the mechanics?  If not established in the auxiliary, where is
the sponsored agreement established?

Thanks.
Patricia
