麻豆视频APK University (鈥渢he University鈥�) is a vital component of the local community and as such is committed to help strengthen the relationships of employees to the communities in which they work and live.
While the University values this extension of our mission, it recognizes that conflicts may arise as a result of these relationships. Since the University consistently avoids conflict of interest or appearance of such, this policy serves to help proactively identify and address any potential employee conflicts.
A conflict of interest arises when an employee is in a position to influence either directly or indirectly University business, research or other decisions, in ways that could lead to gain for the employee, the employee鈥檚 family or others to the detriment of the University鈥檚 integrity and its mission.

Employees must safeguard their university responsibilities against actual or apparent conflict of interest that could arise from the type and scope of activities engaged in by University employees. Employees are required to complete this disclosure during the pre-employment process and at any time during the course of employment when a conflict of interest arises. Employees should disclose the relevant facts to the Human Resources department for guidance if/when they are unsure whether an affiliation exists. If necessary the President and Cabinet will provide guidance about the existence or non-existence of an affiliation.
