What if a representative from a partner institution has already presented an MOU document for UCLA’s signature?
• It is not unusual for a visitor to arrive on campus with a standard agreement from his/her institution “in hand”. We strongly advise deans and faculty to utilize the campus approved MOU template in these instances, rather than sign the other institution’s document. Even though there may not appear to be any real differences between the two documents, the general MOU has been vetted by Campus Counsel and contains approved language and disclaimers. There may be some delay if the other party insists on using their own document. It is essential that campus officials have time to review and, if necessary, modify the agreement. It is neither wise nor appropriate to expect UCLA to respond without taking time for due diligence.
