As you are aware, throughout the CSU, efforts are under way to economize and reduce operating expenditures due to severe reductions in state funding for the upcoming 2011-12 fiscal year. Complementing the Governor's ban on non-essential travel for all agencies of state government, Chancellor Reed has directed CSU campuses to reduce unnecessary travel expenditures, and only travel for mission-critical needs of the campus.
He further directs campuses to implement a pre-authorization travel process that requires the following as a minimum level of approval:
- In-state travel -- all travel requests will need to be approved by an Associate Vice President or Assistant Provost in your division. (Associate Vice President or Assistant Provost will require approval by a Vice President/Provost, as appropriate).
- Out-of-state travel -- all travel requests will need to be approved by a Vice President/Provost of your division.
- International travel -- all requests for international travel will need to be approved by the President.
Accordingly, the authorized personnel to sign mission-critical travel requests are:
