Hi... I heard recently that some institutions of higher ed are now beginning to institute background checks for some staff and faculty. Does anyone do this - or know who does? I hear that some institutions do simple checks (financial and criminal) for their security personnel and sys admins (in key positions) and some do simple screens for their faculty and staff. Coming from an industry background, I have seen this done in aerospace and financial sectors (and some in health care), but not in education. If anyone is doing this, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thanks. Connie J.
