WHEELING, W.Va. —
Court documents show NASA is the federal agency that has been investigating Wheeling Jesuit University and the university’s vice president of sponsored programs.
Investigators claim in the affidavit that J. Davitt McAteer unlawfully diverted federal funds from federal grants that the university received to nonfederal-sponsored programs.
A 35-page document was released recently. Parts were redacted — blacked out to protect the identities of investigators, witnesses and the subjects under investigation.
According to the affidavit, NASA’s Office of Inspector General has been investigating the university and McAteer since May 2010.
