Kean University Ethics Program

Ethics Forms
As required by New Jersey law and regulation, Kean University must distribute the recently adopted Uniform Ethics Code and Plain Language Guide to New Jersey's Executive Branch Ethics Standards to all University trustees, officers and employees, except adjunct faculty members.

After you have reviewed both documents, you must complete and sign the Receipt for the Uniform Ethics Code and Plain Language Guide to New Jersey’s Executive Branch Ethics. In addition, each Kean University trustee, officer and employee, except adjunct faculty members, must complete and sign the Disclosure of Outside Activities, and have his or her supervisor sign as well. The form has been modified to meet the requirements of the New Jersey State Ethics Commission. Please return all completed and signed forms to Michael A. Tripodi, Esq., ethics liaison officer, Kean Hall, Room 117, by December 31, 2006.
