Designated Signature Authority for LC State

Only staff members granted signature authority by President Pemberton or Vice President Julie Crea may act as designated signatories.

Delegation of Signature Authority

Temporary signature authority is sometimes delegated due to someone's absence from their office for a period of time. Those cases may not always be included on this page due to the brief nature of the delegated authority.

If you have questions regarding who has authority to sign on behalf of Lewis-Clark State College, please contact the Office of the Vice President for Finance and Administration at 208-792-2240 or VPFinanceAdmin@lcsc.edu. 

Under no circumstances is the college or the State of Idaho bound to any agreement that is not signed by an authorized party.

Policy 4.131 explains the full scope of Contract Management at LC State.

  • The president or the vice president for Finance and Administration are the only authorized representatives of Lewis-Clark State College to enter into and execute contracts binding the college.
