What is it about UCF and it's high ranking employees? [View all]

I have seen so many use their positions to over-reach in my community. Is this a thing with University everywhere?

Ex-UCF official faced problems at previous job

A UCF medical school administrator who was fired this summer had been accused of accepting free gifts and inappropriately wielding his influence before he came to Florida, Michigan State University documents show.

A Chicago-based executive search firm that UCF paid $75,445 helped recruit Gerard Aubert for the job in Orlando, where he was later accused of trying to land university jobs for his wife and a friend, taking perks from vendors and being hostile to female employees.

Aubert, who had been associate vice president at the University of Central Florida before his dismissal, also faces four criminal charges after an incident that involved an altercation with his wife and a damaged deputy sheriff's car, court records show.

"I didn't do the things I was accused of. No one believes me," Aubert said in an interview with the Orlando Sentinel last week. He wouldn't elaborate.
