UCF won’t let the public see its foundation travel expenses– but it can’t stop state lawmakers from seeing it.

“[W]e look forward to receiving the top 100 travel transactions in detail, as well as all out of state; out of country and all foundation staff travel costs,” read an email from Florida State Budget Chief Tony Lloyd to UCF Foundation CEO Michael Morsberger.

The University of Central Florida is currently under review by the Florida state legislature in regards to its foundation’s travel expenses, which have attracted the attention of the state.

This information was discovered by Knight News through emails between the University and Florida state officials, however the records were not easy to come by, and cost Knight News a total of $226 to obtain.

The email from Lloyd also asks for more detailed descriptions on several items listed on the UCF foundation’s expense report, including a $10.1 million expenditure labeled as “transferred/ provided by the university”, as well as $4.6 million labeled as “general university support”.

In the email, FL Budget Chief Lloyd requested that UCF respond to his email by February 15, however the University has yet to release their response to Knight News.
