Dr. Reginald McDonald (via Tennessee State University )
As reported by The Tennesseean, the director of Tennessee State’s Aristocrat of Bands, Dr. Reginald McDonald was placed on paid administrative leave after an internal audit revealed a “lack of compliance with TSU policies and procedures”, said Tennessee State interim president Dwayne Tucker in a news release on Thursday.
“This decision concerns outstanding travel requisitions and advances and related lack of compliance with TSU policies and procedures,” Tucker said in the release. “Dr. McDonald will be on administrative leave with full pay while we continue this investigation.”
Tucker further states in the release, “As this is an ongoing personnel matter, I will not be able to comment further about it at this time. What I can say is that this difficult decision, and any that come here forward, have at their core a shared commitment to ensuring a bright and stable future for Tennessee State University.”
