SECTIONS 89750-89761

EDUCATION CODE
SECTION 89750-89761
89750. The trustees shall control and expend all money appropriated for the support and maintenance of the California State University, and all money received as donations pursuant to Section 89720. 89750.5. (a) Notwithstanding Sections 948 and 965.2 of the Government Code or any other provision of law, the trustees may settle, adjust, or compromise any pending action or final judgment, without the need for a recommendation, certification, or approval from any other state officer or entity. The Controller shall draw a warrant for the payment of any settlement, adjustment, or compromise, or final judgment against the trustees if the trustees certify that a sufficient appropriation for the payment of the settlement, adjustment, compromise, or final judgment exists. (b) Notwithstanding subdivision (c) of Section 905.2 of the Government Code or any other provision of law, the trustees may pay any claim for money or damages on express contract or for an injury for which the trustees or their officers or employees are liable, without approval of the California Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board if the trustees determine that payment of the claim is in the best interests of the California State University and that funds are available to pay the claim. The authority of the trustees conferred by this subdivision does not alter any other requirements governing claims in the Tort Claims Act (Division 3.6 (commencing with Section 810) of Title 1 of the Government Code), except to grant the trustees authority to pay these claims. (c) Notwithstanding Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 13940) of Part 4 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, the trustees may discharge from accountability the sum of one thousand dollars ($1,000) or less, owing to the California State University if the trustees determine that the money is uncollectible or the amount does not justify the cost of collection. A discharge of accountability by the trustees does not release any person from the payment of any moneys due the California State University. 89751. The State Treasurer is designated as the custodian of all funds received by the state from the government of the United States or of any agency or agencies thereof under any agreement for the education of veterans, and he may receive, and provide for the proper custody of, all money so received. The funds received by the state shall be expended by the officers or agency administering the program to carry out the provisions of the act of the Congress and rules and regulations lawfully adopted thereunder. Such funds are exempt from the provisions of Section 925.6 of the Government Code and shall be paid out by the Treasurer on warrants drawn by the State Controller on claims submitted by the trustees. 89752. The trustees shall prescribe rules and regulations subject to the approval of and audit by the Department of Finance covering the collection, custody, and disposition of any and all money collected by any state college. 89753. All appropriations for the support of the California State University and the trustees shall be subject to Section 13320 of the Government Code and applicable Budget Act restrictions, with the following exceptions: (a) The trustees may, with regard to funds appropriated for the support of the California State University, approve any transfer of funds between general fund appropriations, unless restricted by the Budget Act or any other act, and within and between any category designated in any schedule set forth for the appropriation. In addition, the trustees may authorize the augmentation of the amount available for a category designated in any schedule set forth for the appropriation by transfer from any of the other designated categories, including additional reimbursements and amounts receivable within the same schedule, and shall furnish the Joint Legislative Budget Committee and appropriate legislative fiscal committees a report, on or before January 10, of the authorizations given during the preceding four quarters. (b) The trustees may approve travel, both within and outside the state, and the payment of allowances and expenses related to travel, moving, and the relocation of employees in accordance with the allowances established by the trustees. (c) The trustees may, within funds appropriated for the support of the California State University, establish new positions and make changes in existing positions and the position payroll roster. 89754. The intent of Section 89753 is to give the trustees maximum responsibility within available funds. It is the further intent of the Legislature by said provisions to allow the trustees greater flexibility in their financial affairs and to allow the individual campuses greater flexibility in the expenditure of their appropriations. 89755. All actions of the trustees taken pursuant to Section 89753 are limited to the fiscal year in which the action is taken and subject to audit by the Department of Finance, as well as legislative review, prior to extension into the subsequent fiscal year. 89756. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the chief administrative officer of each campus of the California State University shall be responsible for the propriety of the expenditure, and the integrity of the financial reporting, of the following funds received by the campus: (1) State appropriations. (2) Gifts. (3) Bequests. (4) Trust funds. (5) Grants, loans, or combinations thereof. The chief administrative officer shall also be responsible for the propriety of all expenditures, and the integrity of the financial reporting, made by auxiliary organizations. The chief administrative officer of a state university is, for the purpose of this section, the president of the university. 89757. None of the funds enumerated in Section 89756, nor any of the funds of an auxiliary organization, shall ever be used by any university or college for membership or for any participation involving a financial payment or contribution, on behalf of the institution, or any individual employed by or associated therewith, in any private organization whose membership practices are discriminatory on the basis of the characteristics listed in Section 66270. This section does not apply to any public funds that have been paid to an individual employee or officer as salary, or to any funds that are used directly or indirectly for the benefit of student organizations. 89758. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, obligations may be incurred for the summer quarter operation in the California State University at campuses on year-round operations, subsequent to enactment of a Budget Act and prior to July 1, payable from the appropriations contained in such Budget Act for those purposes. The obligations and the payment thereof shall be subject to Section 89753. 89759. Notwithstanding Sections 935.6, 948, 965, and 965.2 of the Government Code, or any other provision of law to the contrary, the Controller shall draw a warrant for the payment of any claim, settlement, or judgment against a special fund or a trust fund administered by the trustees if the trustees certify that sufficient moneys for the payment of the claim, settlement, or judgment exist within the special fund or trust fund. Records regarding the payments are subject to post audit by the Director of Finance. 89760. (a) The trustees may transfer money from one special fund to another special fund or to the general fund in order to meet the commitments of the California State University if the transferred moneys are returned to the special fund of origin in time to fulfill the purposes of the special fund. Interest shall be paid on all money transferred to another special fund or to the general fund at a rate determined by the trustees to be the current earning rate of the fund from which the money was transferred. (b) "Special fund," as used in this section, means enterprise and trust funds of the California State University and includes any fund subject to the State University Revenue Bond Act of 1947 (Article 2 (commencing with Section 90010) of Chapter 8 of Part 55). (c) This section does not authorize any transfer or loan of money to or from any special fund or the General Fund if the transfer or loan would impair a contractual obligation of the trustees, including, but not necessarily limited to, contractual obligations incurred by the trustees pursuant to the State University Revenue Bond Act of 1947. 89761. (a) The California State University shall adhere to uniform accounting standards in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for institutions of higher education. (b) In the 1993-94 fiscal year, the California State University on five campuses representing the diversity of the system in both size of student body and campus budget shall have an independent audit of all funds performed and an independent audit report prepared. (c) A copy of the audit reports shall be available for public inspection in the library of each campus of the university. (d) The costs associated with the annual independent audit and audits performed pursuant to Section 89045 shall be funded from existing resources.
