question / answer
| Q: | Will my name be included in the System’s Expert Witness Report to the Higher Education Coordinating Board? |
| A: | No. State law does not require employees to identify themselves by name. In fact, the statute expressly states "[t]he information in the report [filed by the Higher Education Coordinating Board] shall be reported without identifying specific individuals." Additionally, information regarding the number of hours spent by faculty and staff serving as consulting or testifying expert witnesses will be reported in the aggregate and will not specify how many hours were devoted to a particular case. When submitting the report, you should not use your name, department, college/school or any other information that may identify you. |
