All fees must be authorized following procedures promulgated by the office of fees and deposits. An approved fee authorization will be processed as an expenditure against the department and account specified.

(1) Members of the instructional staff of the university, with the rank of instructor and above who were employed before July 1, 1955 and who are registered in the graduate school, and any member of the teaching staff who, on the approval of the appropriate instructor and department chair or director of a school, enrolls as an auditor (rule 3335-9-11 of the Administrative Code).
