Purchasing WKU-Owned Devices With Personal Funds

Issue/Question

Can I purchase a WKU-owned computer, or other devices with my own money?

Environment

• WKU-owned device

Resolution

There are two instances where purchasing WKU-owned devices with personal funds are permitted:

• The device has been assessed by ITS and deemed unsupported. The device must then be transferred to Surplus to be removed from WKU's inventory. Information about equipment available for purchase from Surplus can be found here: https://www.wku.edu/surplus/.
• An employee is retiring from WKU and wishes to keep their computer/device. Information about this process can be found in this KB article.

All other scenarios are prohibited.
