A flawed policy at California State University contributed to the closure of nearly a dozen sexual harassment cases without thorough explanation, according to a state audit.
A flawed policy at California State University, the largest higher education system in the country, contributed to the closure of nearly a dozen sexual harassment cases without thorough explanation, according to a state audit reviewing 40 cases over the span of seven years.
"The problems and inconsistencies we found during this audit warrant systemwide changes at CSU," California State Auditor Grant Parks said in a statement. "In particular, the Chancellor's Office must take a more active approach to overseeing campuses' efforts to prevent and address sexual harassment."
Jolene Koester, California State University's interim chancellor, said in a statement that officials would comply with the recommendations. Representatives from California State University, Fresno, San Jose State University and Sonoma State University did not immediately respond to an email request for comment on the audit's findings.
