At the same time Friday, Hussein S. Hussein, an internationally known animal nutrition researcher, was cleared of a charge of plagiarizing his students' work.
The findings will be sent to a four-member faculty committee, which will make a recommendation to UNR President Milton Glick, who will make the final decision on Hussein's fate.
Hussein concealed the contractual nature of his research projects with three companies from 1988 to 2006, keeping the university from rightfully collecting $377,000 in overhead and staffing costs, Breen wrote in his 28-page report.
Hussein, 52, has maintained he's being punished because he was a whistle-blower who alleged abuse of university research animals in complaints to the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 2004.
