Pennsylvania Auditor General Eugene DePasquale released his performance audit of Penn State on June 22. Here are some of the major recommendations included in the audit reports and the university's response.
DePasquale said the auditor's office found an 8 percent error rate for required clearances mandated for children's academic and sports camps on Penn State's campus and a 4 percent error rate for other pre-employment background checks campuswide.
