Fiscal irregularities include, but are not limited to, embezzlement, theft, and falsification of documents, including improper use of the university procurement card.
What Should I Do if I Suspect or Know of a Fiscal Irregularity?
University employees should inform University Counsel or the Internal Audit Office of the System Administration, who will notify the appropriate authorities and investigate the suspected fiscal irregularity. To the extent allowed by law, reasonable efforts will be made to ensure the confidentiality of the person reporting the suspected fiscal irregularity.
What are the Consequences of Fiscal Irregularities?
Following the investigation, University Counsel informs the President, who, in consultation with the Office of the Attorney General, will determine a course of action, including discipline, restitution or termination.
