INTRODUCTION

Although one section in this guide explains how to obtain funding for your organization’s programs and events, the main purpose is to explain how to access your funds and arrange all the various payments needed for your events.  College-recognized organizations are required to process all of their financial transactions through the College accounting system.  This system can be cumbersome and confusing at times, but we’re here to help you through the process!

We look forward to working with you and helping you to facilitate the success of your organization’s programs and events.

 

TREASURER AUTHORIZATION:  TERM CHECK-IN

 

Why?

We require treasurer authorization, because each organization needs one responsible person who oversees the account’s income and expenses and who understands the policies and procedures for various types of payments.  Treasurer authorization also assures Student Activities that all requests to access the organization’s funds are legitimate, because only the authorized treasurer can request access to these funds.

 

How It Works

Become familiar with the “STUDENT ORGANIZATION FINANCIAL PROCEDURES GUIDE” located at http://www.dartmouth.edu/~sao/coso/Treasurer_Financial.html.

  • Complete a “Treasurer Term Check-In” form and a “Treasurer Term Agreement” form.  Copies are available on our web site—or you can pick up paper copies from Pat Moss in the Collis Center/Student Activities Office (303 Collis).  The check-in form serves as a planning document for the term, where you list the events that might happen during the term, the payment needs that will come up for the event, and the forms and deadlines you will need to utilize to arrange those payments.           
  • Bring the completed forms to a “treasurer term check-in” session—no appointment is necessary.  Pat Moss has set aside 1:00-2:30 pm every week day for these sessions.  Pat will review your check-in form, offer tips and pointers for the procedures you need to follow, and answer any questions you might have.  This is a great opportunity for you to get questions answered and fuzzy areas cleared up.
  • This process will be repeated EVERY TERM, for every organization.  Treasurers who have already attended a check-in session must attend a session every term.


TREASURER TERM CHECK-IN

Organization__________________________Treasurer__________________________

Term______________

 

This check-in form serves as your planning guide for the current term, and as an exercise to help you understand what you need to do to access funds in your organization’s account.  THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR FUNDING!

 

INSTRUCTIONS

Assume your organization already has funds for the events and programs you are planning for this term.  It is okay to list tentative or hypothetical events if your organization’s plans are not complete.

Complete the planning section below, using information in the STUDENT ORGANIZATION FINANCIAL PROCEDURES GUIDE at http://www.dartmouth.edu/~sao/coso/Treasurer_Financial.html.

Bring your completed form to a treasurer check-in session in 303 Collis any weekday (Monday-Friday), between the hours of 1:00 and 2:30.  These are walk-in sessions—no appointment is necessary—and should take only a few minutes.

HOW TO OBTAIN FUNDING FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION

With the exception of self-supporting groups and “selective” groups, COSO organizations must apply for funding for events and programs.  In general, COSO will be the first place to apply for funding.

 

COSO (Council on Student Organizations): 

Funding can be requested by COSO-recognized organizations for specific events or general organizational needs.  Funding proposals must be submitted by noon on Friday to be reviewed at the following Wednesday meeting.  COSO meets once a week and does not retroactively fund events.  A presentation from an organizational representative at the weekly COSO meeting is required.  At the outset of each term, COSO provides its organizations with more details concerning its funding policies at a big policy meeting.  Organizations are sent a reminder of the date, time, and location (generally the big policy meeting takes place on the first Wednesday of the first full week of the term at 5:00 pm).  More information can be found at http://www.dartmouth.edu/~sao/coso/.

 

PB (Programming Board): 

PB is the primary source of funding for social events open to the campus costing LESS THAN $5,000.  However, PB does not fund speakers.  Like COSO, PB funding proposals are due Fridays at noon.  Additional details and funding applications are available in the Student Activities Office.  More information can be found at http://www.dartmouth.edu/~sao/prgboard/.

 

CGB (COLLIS GOVERNING BOARD):

If the event that you are seeking to fund will take place in Collis, the Collis Governing Board has funding to support those activities.  More information can be found at http://www.dartmouth.edu/~collis/govern.html.

 

SPEC (Special Programs Events Committee):

This is the source of funds for events costing $5,000 or more.  Forms to request funds can be picked up in 303 Collis, and are due on Fridays at noon.  SPEC meets on Mondays at 5:00, and you will be asked to come to the meeting to discuss your request.

 

ACADEMIC DEPARTMENTS:

Although they do not have large sums of disposable income, they endorse events that enhance their department.  They often support speakers and programming events that pertain to their academic field.  Even if they do not contribute financially, they can be a great source of information.  Contact each department directly.

 

BILDNER ENDOWMENT (Allen and Joan Bildner Endowment for Human and Inter-Group Relations):

Through the generosity of Allen and Joan Bildner, Dartmouth has established an endowment fund for the central purpose of building a culture in which human and inter-group differences are respected, studied, and valued.  It aims to:

•       Foster the study of relations regarding ethnic, racial, multicultural, gender, socioeconomic, and religious differences

•       Develop an understanding of the demographic changes occurring in the US and the implications of increasing diversity in American Society.

•       Provide support and encouragement for student leaders and the student majority who seek to share responsibility for the human condition with the potential for enriching our large society.

More information can be found at http://www.dartmouth.edu/~ide/support/bildner/html.

 

CLASS COUNCILS:

The main priority of each class council is to program social events for their class, but might be able to help fund your event.  Contact the council presidents through their class Blitzmail accounts.

 

CFSC (Co-ed Fraternity Sorority Council):

All the organizations in the CFSC are willing to sponsor programming on campus.  They can be a source of financial funding or a space to hold various events.  For more information, go to http://www.dartmouth.edu/~orl/greek-soc/staff-contact.html.

 

JOHN SLOAN DICKEY CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL UNDERSTANDING:

The mission of the Dickey Center is to coordinate, sustain, and enrich the international dimension of a Dartmouth education.  The Dickey Center encourages organizations to invite speakers to campus to talk about international issues of current concern or special interest, and to plan public events with an international focus.  A written report following the event is required in order to receive allotted funding.  More information can be found at http://www.dartmouth.edu/~dickey/student-event-support.html.

 

ORL (Office of Residential Life):

The ORL strives to provide educational and social programming that will complement the academic mission of the College.  All the programs that are planned by the ORL staff are supported in part or entirely by an internal budget structure managed by the Area Coordinators and Programming Assistants who are supervised by the Area Directors.  For more information, go to http://www.dartmouth.edu/~orl/life-in-res/sips/index.html.

 

ROCKEFELLER CENTER (McSpadden Fund):

The McSpadden fund supports events that show a clear public affairs component.  More information can be found at http://rocefeller.dartmouth.edu/students/funding/mpif.html.

 

CAREER SERVICES:

The “All Dreams Are Welcome Here” fund is meant to inspire students to go beyond limited notions of what Dartmouth graduates do for a living by enabling any undergraduate student organization (or undergraduate students supported by an academic department) to bring speakers on campus to address a career-related theme.  In addition to representing a rich array of occupational pursuits, be they in business, the arts, communications, education, environment, government/public policy, international fields, science or sports, it is also our intent to feature diversity in many forms.  Partnering programs with parents and alumni(ae) will be especially encouraged.  Please note that the “All Dreams Are Welcome Here” fund specifically exists to introduce students to careers of potential interest; it is not meant to help defray the costs of bringing interesting speakers to campus to address topics which are not career-related.  Contact Career Services at 603-646-2215, career.services@dartmouth.edu.

 

MANAGING AND TRACKING YOUR ORGANIZATION’S ACCOUNT

  • You should keep your own record of expected income and expenses.  At least once each month, you should blitz Pat Moss to request a copy of your organization’s account report.  We will send you a report in pdf format which shows all income and expenses for the current fiscal year, and the actual current balance.
  • PLEASE NOTE:  As treasurer, you should make sure your organization stays within budget and does not go into a deficit.  If the organization’s account is in a deficit at the end of the fiscal year, that deficit will be carried forward to the new fiscal year.

OASIS CHART STRINGS REPLACE THE OLD FAS ACCOUNT NUMBERS

  • “Old” treasurers probably remember their organization’s old FAS account number, a 6-digit number.  The OASIS system, which has replaced the FAS system, divides the accounts into “chart strings”—there are 25 digits total in a chart string.  Chart strings are a different way of organizing and looking at the accounts across the college.
  • Your old FAS account number will not be used in any part of the OASIS chart string.  Your chart string will be provided to you at the term treasurer check-in.  If you need to know your chart string before you have had a chance to attend a check in session, or if you have misplaced that information, simply blitz Pat Moss to ask what your organization’s chart string is.

HOW TO ACCESS YOUR FUNDS AND ARRANGE PAYMENTS

Different kinds of payments require different kinds of paperwork and different deadlines.  Scan down the list below of types of payments you might need to arrange.  Next to each kind of payment is a reference to the type of paperwork needed, and the deadline for submitting that paperwork.  The next section has information on each of these forms of paperwork.

TRAVEL

Visiting Speakers/Performers

Airfare

    • If you need to arrange and pay for airfare, contact Garber Travel (College Travel Office, 646-3900) and have them book the reservations.  They can charge the cost directly to your organization’s chart string.
    • Another way is to reimburse the visitor on a “Business Expense Voucher” after the travel has been completed.

 

Car Rental, Person Mileage, Gas,. Meals

If you are covering these costs, have the visitor save receipts and complete a Business Expense Voucher for reimbursement

 

Hotel:

Option 1: Contact the Hanover Inn to reserve the room and have it charged directly to your organization’s chart   string.  Hanover Inn rooms charged to college accounts receive a substantial discount.

Option 2:  Contact the Travel Office (Garber Travel, 646-3900).  They can reserve a room at the Residence Inn at Centerra and have your organization’s account charged directly.

Option 3:  If both of the first two options run up against the problem of “no vacancy”, see Pat Moss in Student Activities for assistance in alternative places and payments.

 

Travel For Your Organization

Airfare

The preferred way for you to buy plane tickets for your organization’s members is through the College Travel Office (Garber Travel, 646-3900).  You simply contact the Travel Office to arrange the tickets, and your organization’s account will be directly charged to pay for them.  For more information, go to http://www.dartmouth.edu/~cto/.

To bypass the Travel Office (not recommended, but possible):  If you choose to make reservations yourself through an on-line service, it gets more complicated.  You would have to actually charge your personal credit card to pay for the tickets.  You could then be “reimbursed” with a cash advance after providing proof that the tickets were paid for.  Then, after the travel has been completed, you would need to complete paperwork to reconcile the cash advance.

You cannot use purchase cards to pay for any travel expenses.

 

Bus/Train

Option 1:  Cash Advance (Request B)

Deadline:  1:00 pm two business days before need of cash

Option 2:  Reimbursement on return from trip (Request B, Business Expense Voucher)

            Deadline:  within one week of return from trip

           

Car

Approved Driver Requirement:  First, you must be an approved driver.  The office of Integrated Risk Management and Insurance (OIRMI) requires that “all employees and student drivers who intend to operate a College-owned, leased, rented or personal vehicle on College business must be named on the Approved Drivers list maintained by OIRMI and must complete the Driver Safety Training Program.”  Go to http://www.dartmouth.edu/~rmi/driversafety/ for links to the driver policy, student driver policy, student driver approval process, student driver application, and vehicle owner’s approval form (required when a personal car will be used for the travel).

To rent a car:  Contact the VOX Car Office at 646-1869.  You can arrange the car rental there, and the cost will be charged directly to your organization’s account.  For more information, go to http://www.dartmouth.edu/~parking/voxcars.html/

 

Hotel

Contact the hotel to make the reservations.  You will probably need to give them a credit card number to confirm the reservations.  DO NOT USE A PURCHASE CARD FOR THIS.  You can use your own personal credit card—or see Pat Moss about using a special department credit card that can be used for this purpose.  If you use our department card, you will need to place the call from our office, because this card cannot be taken out of the office by students.

Request a cash advance (Request B, 1:00 two business days ahead) to take with you to actually pay for the hotel.

Other Expenses:  Meals, Local Transportation, Parking

Include these expected costs in your cash advance request.  This is the only way to arrange for these payments unless you want to pay out of pocket and submit receipts for reimbursement when you return.

 

Conference Registration

You can pay for this with a purchase card, or request a pickup check two weeks in advance so you can take this with you for payment.  A last resort is to include it in the expected costs when you request a cash advance (for some reason, the Controller’s Office does not want cash advances to be used for conference registration, so please do your best to arrange payment another way).

This is also something you could be reimbursed for after you return.

 

Chartered Bus, Group Trip

Contact the chartered bus company to reserve the bus.  Pat Moss can arrange payment with the special department credit card that can be used for this purpose.

FUNDRAISERS AND CHARITABLE DONATIONS

Policy

Since Dartmouth is classified as a non-profit institution, Federal Law forbids the use of Dartmouth funds to make charitable donations.  Your organization is a part of Dartmouth, so funds in your account are considered to be Dartmouth money—and therefore cannot be used to make charitable donations.

However, if your organization holds a fundraiser and deposits the profits from this fundraiser into the account, the profit would not be considered Dartmouth money and can be used to make a donation.  NOTE:  When depositing funds, be sure to indicate the money will be used for a charitable donation.

 

How to Arrange a Donation

Use Request B and choose payment to vendor.  In the space asking for Federal Tax ID number, be sure to enter the charity’s Tax ID number (or tax exempt id number).  The complete name and address of the charity must be included.

 

NOTE:  Even if the charity accepts credit cards, do not request the purchase card for this purpose.  Purchase cards are specifically approved for purchases for supplies and goods for departments and organizations.

 

DEPOSITS, CASH AND CHECKS

Bring any cash or checks designated for your organization to Pat Moss in the Student Activities Office for deposit into your account.  New Cashier’s Office policy requires that cash and checks be divided into separate deposits rather than mixed together.

Your organization’s complete 25 digit chart string must be written on the back of each check being deposited.  As a short cut, ask Pat Moss for the chart string “stamper”.  All of the digits of the COSO organization chart strings are identical except for the “activity” portion.  If you use the stamper, the only thing that needs to be written on the check is the “activity” portion of the string.

 

DA$H

Sometimes organizations collect money from students for specific purposes—such as sales of tickets to an event, or sales of T-shirts or other merchandise for a fundraiser.

If you want to collect payments from students using DA$H, first talk to Quita Davis in the Collis Center/Student Activities office to obtain DA$H sheets.  You will need to have all students who are making payments write in their student id numbers and sign the sheets.

When the DA$H sheets are completed, see Quita Davis again.  She will explain to you how to enter the charges in the Collis DA$H terminal, and give you the code number you will need to complete these entries.

After the charges have been entered, you will need to give Quita the report that the DA$H machine prints out.  The funds will be transferred to your organization’s account (this might take several weeks).  Be sure to keep a copy of the report for your own records so you will know how much income to expect.

DA$H charges MUST be entered before the end of the term that the charges have been collected.  You should make every effort to complete this process as soon as possible after you have collected information on the DA$H sheet.

 

CHECK YOUR MAIL!

Your organization’s mail is delivered to the Collis Center/Student Activities Office in 303 Collis.  Your mail is placed in a folder in a filing cabinet, but we do not have time to send a blitz to each group when mail arrives.  Please stop by the office every week or two and ask if there is any mail for your group.  You might find a check someone has sent to your organization, or requests for information, or magazines your group has subscribed to.

THE TWELVE GOLDEN RULES FOR TREASURERS

 

  1. Always save ORIGINAL CASH REGISTER RECEIPTS, because credit card charge slips and copies of receipts will not hold up under an audit.  TIP:  If the wind has blown your original receipt away, see Pat Moss about a lost receipt memo.  This is a last resort. 
  2. Always READ THE SMALL PRINT! 
  3. When completing a form, fill in ALL THE BLANKS.  If the form is filled out incompletely, your request cannot be processed. 
  4. Monitor the “STUDENT ORGANIZATION INFORMATION” Blitz Bulletin.  This is how we communicate important information to treasurers. 
  5. Always request purchase cards by 1:00 pm ONE BUSINESS DAY (Monday through Friday) ahead. 
  6. Always return purchase cards, completed transaction logs, and ORIGINAL CASH REGISTER RECEIPTS by 1:00 pm on the due date. 
  7. Remember that if the purchase card holder does not follow the rules, your organization will be on “Purchase Card Probation.”  The second time the rules are not followed the same term means that your organization will loose purchase card privileges for the remainder of the term. 
  8. Remember to request “pick up checks” TWO WEEKS before need, being sure ALL required information and paperwork is included with the request.  Incomplete requests cannot be processed until they are completed—which could mean that you won’t get the pickup check by the time you need it. 
  9. Always request cash advances by 1:00 pm TWO BUSINESS DAYS before you need the cash.  Be sure the person you name on the cash advance request is the actual person who will pick up and be responsible for the cash. 
  10. Always request reimbursements WITHIN ONE WEEK of the purchase. 
  11. Keep an eye on the calendar and the clock.  Requests submitted after the required deadline cannot be filled. 
  12. Keep a record of your group’s income and expenses, and check your account report at least once/month.

 

REMEMBER:  When you’re not sure about something, please do not hesitate to ask questions!!  We understand that the college accounting system and its rules and regulations can be confusing, and we are here to support you on the road to success!

STUDENT ORGANIZATION PURCHASE CARD POLICY

 

  1. The ability to use the purchase card is a convenience and privilege so organizations can easily make purchases without the cumbersome paperwork of cash advances or reimbursements.  Failure to follow the policies below will result in “Purchase Card Probation” for the organization after the first offense, and loss of purchase card privileges for the organization for the remainder of the term after the second offense.

 

  1. Purchase cards must be requested NO LATER THAN 1:00 PM ONE BUSINESS DAY ahead of need.  Late requests will not be processed.

 

  1. Purchase cards cannot be used outside of the local Upper Valley area.  It is okay to use the purchase card at local stores in Hanover, Lebanon, West Lebanon, and White River Junction—but they CANNOT be taken out of the area (such as to purchase specialty items or food from Boston or New York City, etc.)

  1. If purchase card policy is not followed (such as, card is late, receipts are missing, transaction log is not completed, card is used for something on the list of what cards CANNOT be used for), the organization will be placed on Purchase Card Probation.  A second failure to follow the policy will result in the organization’s loss of purchase card privileges for the term.
