College president who used public resources to campaign for a tax increase gets slap on the wrist
One is not supposed to use the public’s money to advocate for more money from the public.
(From College Reform)
The Michigan secretary of state cited Schoolcraft College president Conway Jeffress for violating Michigan Compiled Laws (MCL) §169.257 by “improperly using public resources to expressly advocate for the passage of a ballot question,” according to the conciliation agreement provided to Campus Reform by the Michigan Secretary of State, along with other lawsuit information.
He was ordered to pay the State of Michigan $75 dollars after its investigation closed, as part of a conciliation agreement.
