Focus on Conflict of Interest
The American Council on Education (ACE) recently updated its "Working
Paper on Conflict of Interest" (available at www.acenet.edu).
The paper, which was initially released in January 2008, aids higher
education institutions in their continued efforts to ensure sound
ethical practices throughout their campuses.
The past year has seen the New York Office of the Attorney General
investigate the conduct of higher education institutions nationwide, as
well as increased scrutiny from Congress. With questions aimed at the
student loan industry, affinity cards, study abroad arrangements,
endowments, compensation, and expense reimbursement, institutions are
taking a close look at conflict of interest policies for all aspects of
campus activities. . . .
