Welcome to the Office of University Compliance & Ethics


Grambling State University operates under many laws and regulations- federal, state, local and administrative- that often apply at the institutional level as well as at an individual level based on areas of responsibility. These legal requirements are incorporated within University policies that apply to the University community.

Grambling State University is strongly committed to ethical conduct and promoting a "culture of compliance." A "culture of compliance" is an environment that supports adherence to the law and to University policies and procedures. The University Compliance & Ethics Office aims to be accessible to all members of the University community on compliance and ethics issues, including faculty, staff, and students, to help in the understanding of issues, and to facilitate appropriate resolution of substantiated findings.

University Compliance & Ethics is your partner in successfully navigating your responsibilities on behalf of Grambling State University
