“The College has a conflict of interest policy included within its Code of Conduct which is distributed to all employees via a printed and electronic handbook. The Code requires that conflicts be disclosed to an employee's supervisor, the General Counsel, or the College President. This policy covers all employees as well as college visitors, including consultants. To avoid a conflict, employees are prohibited from accepting a position with another employer without supervisory approval. Any employee wishing to perform consulting services must obtain prior approval from the President of the College. Finally, gifts are strictly limited and must be disclosed to the President's office if valued over $100. Additionally, the College has a "self-standing" Conflict of Interest policy which is referenced in the Code of Conduct and also included in the handbook. Compliance with this policy is affirmed in writing each year by each individual member of the Board of Trustees. These responses are reviewed by the General Counsel and the College President; any potential conflicts would also be reviewed by the Audit Committee and Executive Committee. Ultimately, the Audit Committee would determine the existence of a conflict and the appropriate remedy, and report these to the Board. The Conflict of Interest policy precludes any individual in a conflict of interest situation from voting on any proposed transaction which relates to the conflict. Remedies beyond abstention from voting would be determined on a case by case basis.”
