Good Morning Tinu, Penn State University instituted a Crowdfunding Policy in June of 2015. Policy AD90 - Crowdfunding Solicitation Policy<https://guru.psu.edu/policies/AD90.html> addresses many of your concerns.
Mindy Leadership is the ability to inspire creativity, emphasize ingenuity, and encourage collaboration while remaining respectful, compassionate, and gracious. Mindy A.

I'm also interested in any general policies/guidance around crowdfunding institutional/University research whether for student/staff/faculty. For those that do, I'm particularly interested in how/if policies/guidance address potential COI, use of institutional resources including facilities, institution name/logo, etc., and any overlap with development policies for gift reporting. I did find this from Stanford which was a helpful first step: https://doresearch.stanford.edu/sites/default/files/documents/crowdfunding-for-stanford-research.pdf Thanks all, T Atinuke "Tinu" O.
