Audit Finds More Problems at Bluefield State

"Money that should have gone to Bluefield State College was instead being deposited by its athletic program with the private foundation that raises money for the school," The Associated Press reports.

The Charleston Gazette also reports on the legislative audit that found "other serious problems with the Mercer County school's accounting practices, including missing receipts and a lack of internal controls to prevent 'double-dipping.'"

"Sheila Johnson, finance chief at the college, says the school is working to fix the problems," the AP article notes.
