In order to comply with federal regulations and Board of Regents (BOR) policy, Kansas State University (KSU) requires all unclassified faculty and staff with 100% time appointments to annually file Annual Declaration and Disclosure. Faculty and unclassified staff members who hold fractional appointments who have potential or possible conflicts of time or conflicts or interest are also required to file disclosure forms.
Board of Regents policy permits and encourages a reasonable amount of consulting and outside professional work by faculty members and other employees. Conflicts of interest and potential conflicts of interest are inherent in any university setting, and they are not necessarily unacceptable or wrong. Appropriate management of such conflicts ensures the appropriate use of public resources and the integrity of the university and is required by Regents and university policies. More detailed policy statements and guidelines will be published in the University Handbook and the Board of Regents Policy Manual. In order to ensure university compliance with Regents and institutional policy, and with federal and state mandates, this information must be obtained for review and approval prior to engagement in any external personal, professional activity, except those that occur within a single 24-hour period.
