University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) Internal Auditing

1 out of 10 stars (9 votes)

What used to be a collection of interesting facts about internal auditing, internal controls, and recent audit reports is now a boring, one-page policy statement. The internal auditing web site (http://www.fin.ucar.edu/ia/index.html) that was announced November 12, 1997 apparently has disappeared. Maybe someone disliked the "new way for staff to send information on suspected fraud, waste, and abuse at UCAR."

University of West Florida Office of Inspector General

4 out of 10 stars (7 votes)

Nothing too outstanding here: just the "Under Construction" graphic, which features a half-naked person in a skirt and sandals pounding on a wooden floor with a hammer. Maybe it's got something to do with spring break in Pensacola Florida, where this University is located.
