The use of volunteers to perform normal University duties is discouraged for reasons of legal liability and the absence of employee protections. Any proposal for the use of volunteers must have the approval of the unit head, Office of Human Resources, and the Office of the University Legal Counsel. Volunteers are not in an employer-employee relationship.
Volunteers perform hours of service for civic, charitable, or humanitarian reasons.
