The ITS department implemented, during fiscal year 2024, improvements to cyber security and minor elements of GLBA, including multifactor authentication. The action plan anticipates completion of all elements of GLBA by the end of the calendar year. Name of Responsible Party: Mary Donahoo Anticipated completion date: 12/31/2024

Finding Number: 2024-001 Condition: The Corporation withdrew a total of $44,190 from the replacement reserve account when only $22,095, representing the 50% deposit, was approved by HUD in advance of the withdrawal. The remaining $22,095 was withdrawn without obtaining approval from HUD in advance of the second withdrawal.

Such approval will alert the manager to seek replacement reserve approval, where applicable.

Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. Various Recommendation: We recommend the College reevaluate its procedures and review policies surrounding reporting status changes to NSLDS to put a process in place to ensure the enrollment effective date reported to NSLDS on the campus level is aligning with the College as well as the status changes are reported timely. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. The College utilizes a custom report for enrollment reporting to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC), who then provides data to NSLDS. In recent years the custom report has required additional manual updates. Ellucian, who provides the Colleague system that the Office of the Registrar uses as their system of record, provides quarterly updates to the Colleague code. Each system update results in necessary review and insertion of the custom report into the Colleague process. The College’s Chief Information Officer has approved funding to contract with a NSC Specialist from Ellucian during Fall 2024 to review Grinnell’s enrollment reporting process and to determine what changes should be made within the Colleague system to make the enrollment reporting process less manual. This would improve the accuracy of reporting by eliminating the constant review and manual adjustments the current process requires. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Jason Luedtke, Senior ERP Specialist, Information Technology Services Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Spring 2025.

Criteria or Specific Requirement - Special Tests and Provisions - Enrollment Reporting - 34 CFR Section 690.83(b)(2) and 685.309 Condition - Eight student status changes were not communicated to the NSLDS timely Questioned Costs - N/A Context - Out of the population of 312 students with enrollment status changes requiring reporting to NSLDS, a sample of 25 students was selected for testing. Of those 25 students, 8 student status changes were not reported to NSLDS within the required 60 days. Our sample was not, and was not intended to be, statistically valid. Effect - NSLDS was not notified of student status changes in accordance with compliance requirements Cause - The University did not have effective internal control processes in place to ensure the accurate collection, review and reporting of student status changes occurred timely. Recent turnover in personnel resulted in a lack of oversight as well. Indication as a Repeat Finding - N/A Recommendation - The University should review its internal controls surrounding the enrollment reporting process and ensure internal controls provide for the timely and accurate reporting of student status changes. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions - Amy Schlup, Director of Student Financial Services, and Rachel Hart, Registrar, will oversee the corrective action plan. New personnel in the Registrar's office have received training for student enrollment reporting and will submit reporting to NSLDS every 30 days in order to stay within the required 60 days. This reporting will take place around the 25th of every month and be completed by the Registrar only. The Associate Registrar and Director of Administrative Computing will retain alternate access in case of emergency. Error reports will be reviewed and resolved within one week ensuring that accurate information is provided to NSLDS well within the required time frame. The corrective action plan has already been completed as of October 9, 2024.

On June 8, 2015, the Board of Trustees adopted policies and procedures for federal grant awards which were added to Section 4.11 Annual Audit of the Grosse Ile Township Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual. Due to a clerical oversight, this section was not included in the updated Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual that was adopted on November 14, 2022. The Township has not typically received significant amounts of federal funding in the past. However, written procedures specific to accepting federal awards are required to be documented and updated in accordance with Uniform Guidance, including written procedures for financial management systems, payments, allowable costs, period of performance, matching or cost sharing, program income, procurement, equipment and real property, supplies, copyrights, subawards or debarred and suspended parties, monitoring and reporting program performance, financial reporting, retention and access requirements for records, cash management and payroll or federal time keeping. There have been no instances of noncompliance with federal program requirements, even with the significant increase in federal expenditures during the 2023/2024 fiscal year. Updated written procedures specific to federal awards, in compliance with Uniform Guidance, will be compiled by management and presented to the Board of Trustees for approval and adoption.
