The state auditor’s office issued its report Monday on alleged improprieties at Cerritos College and said it found no evidence of mismanagement.
“On all the substantive issues we came up clean,” Cerritos College President Fred Gaskin said Monday. “I am pleased and extremely proud of the staff and am sorry they wasted their time.”
Requested originally by Assembly member Grace Napolitano (D-Norwalk) and commissioned earlier this year by the state Legislature, the audit looked into various allegations of budgeting problems, conflicts of interest and student attendance reporting at the Norwalk campus.
The audit did find weaknesses related to the bookstore. In addition, the report recommended that the College revise its bylaws to limit the power of the president.
