PEER reviewed the University of Mississippi’s handling of two stadium renovation projects and concluded that the university did not violate state purchasing laws or regulations. Since the university utilized self- generated funds, the projects were not subject to the policies and procedures of the Bureau of Building, Grounds, and Real Property Management. PEER recommended that the Board of Trustees of Institutions of Higher Learning adopt policies to govern capital outlay projects which are procured with self-generated funds.
