(2) With the approval of the board, the Chancellor of the Oregon University System shall make out, certify and transmit to the board at the end of each pay period a payroll, duly verified by the chancellor or other designated officer and approved by the proper auditing committee or officer, showing the names of the several officers, teachers, instructors and other employees during the preceding payroll period, the rate of compensation of each by the hour, day, week, month or year, the time employed, the amount due and any other facts the board requires.

The person shall be under bond to the State of Oregon.
(4) When an employee receives payment of salary or compensation in an amount greater than the employee’s entitlement, the amount of the overpayment may be deducted from salary or compensation earned by the employee. The deduction may be in such form and manner as the State Board of Higher Education may prescribe. [1995 c.612 §6; 1999 c.202 §1; 1999 c.560 §1]
