For 15 hours each week, three SCU seniors—Sarina Jwo and classmates Ashley Derakhshandeh and Conor Boone—wear the cap of internal investigators at Cisco Systems as part of a new program from the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics. The interns have been trained as fraud analysts and work alongside ethics and compliance professionals on investigations. Day-to-day duties include analyzing expense reports and transmissions, compiling reports, and participating in interviews.
