University Of Illinois Professor Fined For Refusal To Attend Ethics Training
Posted in: Today's ChiliLou Van den Dries, a tenured math professor at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, was fined $500 for skipping mandatory ethics training from 2006 until 2009 by the Executive Ethics Commission.
The ethics training is required annually, takes an hour to complete, and can be done in person or online. It is mandatory for all University of Illinois staff under the State Officials and Employees Ethics Act.
However, it was not the challenge of the training session that bothered Van den Dries, but rather the ideology behind it.
