From improving enrollment to attaining student and institutional success, higher education is experiencing the need to transform at an accelerating rate. This evolving and competitive environment creates not only opportunities for colleges and universities to differentiate themselves, but also opens doors to commit fraud that could harm an institution’s reputation and derail the path towards achieving fiscal resiliency.
Jonathan Marks, leader of Baker Tilly’s global fraud and forensic investigations and compliance practice, joins us in this fiscal resiliency episode to discuss fraud risk in higher education. We explore why fraud happens, internal and external pressures leaders and their institutions face that lead to acts of fraud, the relationship between fraud and reporting data for national rankings and other topics for institutions to consider to proactively detect and prevent fraud risks.
Don’t miss Jonathan’s key takeaways: ten “red flags” that help leaders assess and determine the level of fraud risk within their institution.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
