• Employment of Relatives (Nepotism)

(Board Policy 410.1; Governor's Policy Directive #8.) 

Employment of relatives in the same department or division of the university is allowed only when one will not supervise or have control over personnel decisions affecting the other. To avoid possible conflict of interest, relatives must not participate, either formally or informally, in decisions to hire, retain, promote or determine the salaries of each other.
