What is the difference between being an officer and an authorized signer?
Every student organization is allowed up to four authorized signers. Authorized signers are the individuals that the Office of the Dean of Students recognizes as both financially responsible and liable for the actions of their organization. These four individuals have the ability to make facility reservations with Student Center & Event Services (formerly known as Scheduling & Conference Services) , the Bren Events Center, and the ARC. Only currently enrolled UCI students can be authorized signers for an organization, not alumni, off-campus advisors, faculty or staff. An organization member does not have to be an officer to be an authorized signer. However, at least two of the four signers must be executive officers of the organization (i.e., President/Chair, Vice President/Co-Chair). Contact the Office of the Dean of Students with any questions or for more information.
