Auxiliary Organizations Assoc. for iOS

The Auxiliary Organizations Association (AOA) app is your primary tool for AOA events and annual conference information.The members that make up the AOA are the auxiliaries of the 23 campuses in the California State University (CSU) system. These organizations are, for the most part, 501(c)(3) public benefit corporations that provide services to their campuses in various ways, and they have their own governing boards, financial structures, and personnel operations. The auxiliaries are by nature hybrids. They are private entities nestled within the framework of a public structure and, as such, they are subject both to California corporate law and to the Education Code and the policies of the CSU and the campus. They are related to the university at the same time that they are separate from it, and it is this difference that makes them useful. The auxiliaries enhance the capabilities of their campuses in the areas of property purchase or management, procurement, investment, and business administration, by providing alternatives to public procedures and undertaking entrepreneurial business risk. They provide the universities with hiring flexibility, cash flow for seed programs, and flexible ways to hold and use funds. For more information about AOA visit: http://www.csuaoa.org
