The FSU Office of Compliance and Ethics provides oversight and guidance to all areas of the institution in the areas of compliance and ethics. The office provides this oversight through the ongoing development of effective policies and procedures, education, training, monitoring, communication, and response to reported issues, as required by Chapter 8 of the Federal Sentencing Guidelines and Florida Board of Governors Regulation 4.003. These guidelines and regulation set forth the elements of an effective compliance and ethics program that maximizes compliance with laws, regulations, rules, and policies and promotes ethical conduct.
VIRES, ARTES, MORES ("Strength, Skill, Character")
The philosophy and operational strategy of the Office of Compliance and Ethics are grounded in the idea that all members of the FSU community have a shared responsibility to act with a high level of character, consistent with the third element of FSU's motto. When our community works together toward this shared goal, we help to preserve and advance FSU's reputation of
INTEGRITY AND EXCELLENCE ALWAYS, IN ALL WAYS.
