Dear colleagues:  Appended is a message from President Buchanan regarding the mechanics for accessing the gift matching funds recently approved by the Wyoming Legislature.  It's important that we all follow these procedures to avoid potentially embarrassing and counterproductive miscommunications with prospective donors.  Please relay this message to your department heads and program directors.  Thanks!

As we discussed in Exec Council, the following process will be used to approve projects for state matching funds. 

 

UW development employees, college development officers, and  UW  administrators can identify gifts that they believe will qualify for the match.  Proposed projects should be submitted to the President.  If appropriate, the President will forward projects to Rick Miller and Phill Harris for their review and opinion regarding eligibility for matching funds.  Rick and Phill will communicate their opinion to the President who, in turn, will notify development offices.  Ben Blalock will keep the “master” spreadsheet showing all projects approved against matching funds.  All projects involving state matching funds will require approval by the BOT via the consent agenda before finalizing.  Please convey this process to appropriate persons in your unit.  There appears to be misunderstanding about how matching fund approval will be handled.
