The investigation or settlement of claims against the University should not be undertaken by a department, college or other unit. If you become aware of a claim or if someone presents a claim against the University, the claim should be referred to the Claims Management Office for that campus. The Claims Management Office will review the claim and make any payment that might be due to the individual making the claim.

Under no circumstances should a department, college or other unit on any campus pay money to settle a claim without the express approval of their campus Claims Management Office or the Office of University Counsel.
