“The form is completed by the accounting staff/director, finance and controller, and controller's group and is reviewed in detail by the acting vp for business affairs & treasurer. Another internal review is conducted by the general counsel and vp for legal affairs and risk management and the president of the university. The return is then reviewed and approved by the audit and risk committee of the board with a copy provided to the full board of trustees prior to filing.”

“Employee conflict of interest- officers and key employees are identified annually shortly after each calendar year end when w-2 wage amounts are calculated and key employees can be identified. Each officer and key employee is contacted individually referencing the officer and key employee conflict of interest portion of the policy of ethical practices. A copy of the officer and key employee conflict of interest form is sent to that group with a request to complete and send responses to the director, finance & controller. Responses are evaluated and discussed with the vice president for legal affairs and risk management as necessary. Summary results are disclosed to the audit & risk committee and the board chair.”

“All salary increases and compensation payments must have two levels of approval. For senior positions for which there are not two levels of internal approval available, the compensation committee meets annually (or more frequently if needed for new employees or out of cycle amendments to existing arrangements) to approve in advance of any payments. The committee will only have members without a conflict of interest with respect to the compensation arrangements being discussed. The committee considers duties and external benchmark data to consider wages and benefits, including non-standard fringes, and will contemporaneously document in writing how its decisions were reached (including date, terms, data used, members of committee present and voting, and the recusal of any members due to a conflict and nature of the conflict).”
