But that's what I mean, what you posted sounds like a near blanket prohibition, not a process.  If you need the President or Provost to sign off on putting Stanford on an NIL deal then you have de facto prohibited it.

The best we can hope for is that the President/Provost delegate authority to the AD or to an NIL officer who can review and approve or deny the use on a case by case basis.

BC

on delegation (and I would be surprised if they don't have delegates), the Provost looks like the approver for Athletics related items, of course she could delegate that to others so maybe the AD for all sports but football and Andrew Luck for football, but thaat's likely a state secret....

Of course I could see Drell having a blanket rejection

One question would be does an athlete get more NIL money if they wear the uniform or even just name of their college in the ad?

2. Authority

The President has delegated authority for approving use of Stanford's Marks as follows:

a. Provost
For use in connection with educational, research and athletics activities (including courseware and related materials developed for teaching at Stanford) and for special events.

b. Vice President for Business Affairs and Chief Financial Officer
For use by manufacturers of merchandise and products, in connection with Stanford’s business activities, and by vendors (including promotional use). Only the Vice President for Business Affairs and Chief Financial Officer may grant permission for use of Stanford's Marks on merchandise and products. 

c. Dean of the School of Medicine
For use in connection with Stanford Medicine’s activities. 

d. Vice President for University Communications
For use in film, video, print and digital media, including the University's web pages. 

e. General Counsel
For use in connection with legal affairs.

Authority for approving all other uses of Stanford’s Marks remains with the President.

These individuals, or their delegates, will collaborate on situations that fall within the scope of authority of more than one office in order to ensure a consistent application of this policy.
