University of Iowa denies misuse of $2.1 million grant
University officials disputed a 1974 HEW audit alleging improper use of federal funds from 1971 to 1974. They said salary overcharges and stipends cited by HEW were misinterpretations of payroll practices and workload reports, asserting the audit overstated mispayments and resulted from a 'one point in time' view.
