Employee Handbook
As stated in the University’s code of conduct (Section 2 - Employee Conduct, ):
Code of Conduct
A. General Expectations
Â鶹Æƽ⴫ý respects the dignity and value of individual students, staff, faculty and visitors. Accordingly, every employee is expected to show the same respect and concern for others so that all community members can achieve their full potential. When Â鶹Æƽ⴫ý has reason to believe that the conduct of any or some community members inappropriately prevents or hampers others from performing their work, the University will intercede.
B. Reporting Improper Conduct
If an employee has reason to believe or reasonably suspect that the University or any of its employees or agents is engaged in improper conduct – i.e., violations of laws, regulations or University policies or procedures, or other suspected wrongdoings that come to their attention, including violations of ethical and professional standards – that employee is encouraged to report such conduct, and may do so without fear of reprisal or retaliation. See the Whistleblower Protection Policy for options on reporting suspected improper conduct and procedures for handling the report.
