What documents do I need to send to the General Counsel’s Office for review/drafting?
A. All proposed contracts, agreements and other legal instruments (including letters of intent; memoranda of understanding; offer letters; affiliation, partnership, association, and/or membership documents; resolutions; confidentiality agreements; leases; loans; licenses; grant or gift agreements; and agreements for the purchase of goods and/or services) to which the University is to be a party should be referred in writing to General Counsel for drafting or review as far as possible in advance of negotiations with the other party. Exceptions to this rule are standard University agreements that have already been approved by General Counsel for routine use by other University units such as the Office of Institutional Advancement, the Office of Research, and Purchasing.
