A Department Dining Card is a re-loadable card that department representatives may use when conducting business-related dining purchases on campus.
The policies governing use of Department Cards may be found in the Employee Handbook section 6.2
A Department Dining Card is a pre-loaded card funded by a department's budget, intended for specific business-related meals, such as student engagement, recruitment, and hosting special visitors. The card should not be used for personal meals, perks, or non-dining purchases. Only current employees may be assigned as the card's "owner," who is responsible for ensuring compliance with business expense policies. To request or replace a card, written authorization from the department budget manager is needed, and a small fee will be charged. Transactions cannot be billed or invoiced to the card, and the card's balance is capped at $200 unless an exception is granted.
