The American Council on Education (ACE) today released a working paper to guide trustees, presidents, administrators and faculty in strengthening institutional policies and practices in the area of conflict of interest. The paper, which is available on ACE’s web site, was drafted by a working group which included campus leaders as well as representatives of several higher education associations.

The paper, which is a working document, proposes basic principles and identifies questions and criteria to guide review of policies and situations that may raise ethical concerns. The paper also includes a list of resources on this topic to which institutions may refer.
