To protect the campus community and its assets, the University needs to ensure that individuals assigned to certain campus positions have no history of criminal behavior relevant to their employment. Designated positions requiring a Background Check are positions where job responsibilities include, for example:
- Working with minors
- Handling or having access to cash or personally identifiable information
- Having access to secured or restricted areas
These types of positions require finalists to be fingerprinted and are referred to as "designated" positions.
