Nabil Chartouni may become the whistle blower the American University of Beirut always knew about but failed to silence.
After a decade of raising alarm bells inside the administration’s hallways about alleged multi-million dollar cases of corruption and malpractice, the wealthy Lebanese business man compiled a long list of allegations of corruption and mismanagement into a 500-page report last June and demanded a proper investigation.
Allegations include supplying electricity to non-university users over three decades, multi-million endowment fund losses, inflated retirement compensation packages, and shady drug supply practices at the university’s renowned Medical Center.
