Philadelphia Inquirer: Report cites abuse by fired UMDNJ dean
The allegations that have been swirling around Warren Wallace for weeks finally came to light yesterday, and the details were not pretty.
A federal monitor investigating the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, where Wallace was a senior dean until he was fired last week, accused him of manipulating the petty-cash system and steering a lucrative no-bid catering and cafeteria contract to a friend.
The monitor’s report also said Wallace, a Gloucester County freeholder and chairman of the Delaware River and Bay Authority, had devoted “significant” amounts of university time and resources to his political jobs.
And, finally, the monitor said Wallace had tried this spring to get his daughter into the university’s School of Osteopathic Medicine in Stratford, where he was responsible for admissions, even though she did not write the required essays or take the required tests.
