Policy Statement

Carolina University will not offer staff employment to the spouse of any member of the Administration or Staff where duties, oversight, supervision, or responsibilities may overlap.

Policy Procedures

While spouses of Faculty members may be considered for staff positions, those positions must not be under the supervision of that Faculty member. Potential overlap of duties between two members of the teaching faculty will be evaluated by the Provost in consultation with the appropriate Dean.


Failure to follow this policy may lead to disciplinary action.
