DELEGATION of SIGNATURE AUTHORITY
Last Revised: 07/01/11
The University has a centralized system of signature authority. The Regents
have delegated general signature authority to the President who has delegated
portions of that authority to specific senior administrator positions listed in
UNM Policy 2010
“Signature Authority.” Under limited circumstances, these
positions may further delegate that authority using this form; however, such
delegations may be used only when necessary and not defeat the centralized
intent of Policy 2010 and must be
approved by the President.
Complete all sections of this form. After obtaining all appropriate
signatures and the President’s approval, send this delegation form to the
University Secretary and a copy to the individual being delegated signature
authority. The delegation number will be assigned by the University Secretary
and a numbered copy will be returned to the position delegated authority and
