Investigators determined that Central Carolina Community College's Board of Trustees approved 11 more holidays than commonly recognized by other state and county government entities during the 2017 fiscal year. As a result, the College paid employees $862,424 for days they did not work. In addition, investigators discovered that 30 other community colleges appear to provide employees with extra paid holidays above the standard 12 holidays provided to state employees. These instances occurred because the State Board of Community Colleges has not adopted a policy that limits the number of paid holidays.
