On June 23, 2000, the North Carolina State University Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business requested the Office of the State Auditor conduct a Special Review of North Carolina State University Public Safety Department (Department) (Exhibit 1). His concerns included the use of lapsed salary funds to purchase equipment that appeared to be of questionable value in the efficient operation of the Department, travel reimbursements made to the former Director of Public Safety, management practices and building monitoring systems within the Department. We also received additional allegations once we began our Special Review concerning inappropriate behavior by the former Director of Public Safety in the use of NCSU equipment. Findings and recommendations are included in the report.
