You must work for the legislative auditors or something.

There no reason for you to be driving up your post count over someone’s job perks. Jeez.

It violates state ethics laws to benefit if in a position to make decisions. Also any gift over a certain amount is against those laws. Every public employee knows this because they have to watch a training video annually and submit the certificate. #theyknew

How does the structure of the LSU system work? Any way this can be blamed on F. King Alexander?

I'd live under the overpass before I became the principal of a secondary school.

The article never said the money went to a personal account.

As much as I would like that, I don't know. From what I understand, Uhigh was operating without a lot of oversight from LSU up until very recently. I'm not exactly sure what caused it, but now they are more subject to oversight from LSU. I believe that is how this Audit started. After being brought under LSU control, LSU had their people do an audit on Uhigh to gauge the school's financial standing. Hopefully someone with more info can elaborate.

How original...just pointing out that it never said anything about a personal account, it just said they did not deposit the funds into a university account.

Well that is 100% in F. King's lap if you ask me. Much more so than the day to day frick ups that may occur. As the CEO (which is what he is) of a large organization, the "what goes where and who reports to who" is more the big man's job than the fact that some worker bee was stealing money.

The CEO shouldn't be in trouble because some guy was stealing. He should be in trouble because the guy was doing it and there was no management checks and balances or oversight to catch the guy.

Oh I agree. And this just adds to the ever growing list of recent financial misappropriations at LSU.

Looks like we have some U-high employees/families/grads up in here.

Now, let's talk about the important stuff... how do we pin this on Joe Alleva?

Does not matter. The "appearance of impropriety" is as damaging as actual impropriety. And this looks really, really bad.

Don't try to tell this to the morons over at the Rant.

Appearance of impropriety is a bullshite standard.

Just because you thought someone did something wrong does not make it so.

Or you thought something just looked wrong to you, that’s not proof it was wrong.

Looks don’t count except in beauty pageants.

It was implied. The money was deposited into the account of a business they owned.

Is this in Respomse to the lady that posted all The Kids in the MAGA Hats at Washington DC calling the school Racists. And how MAGA was a racist slogan and how if you agree with the president you are racists and shite like dat!!!!! And then like Erybody side ways about one of the moms adopting a kid and giving it back. Whatever happened wit dat.

Sounds like this school needs it own reality TV Show.
