==Controversy==

=== Breaches of statutory standards ===

In 2001, the NSW [[Ombudsman]] reported breaches of the NSW FOI Act and the NSW State Records Act by the University.<ref>NSW Ombudsman Annual Report 2000-2001, p.81 (Case study 62)</ref>


===Substandard record-keeping===


On 2 May 2012, [[The Australian]] newspaper reported that Southern Cross University "could be at risk of de-registration" following revelations in a leaked email dated 15 April 2012 from the University's Director of Quality, Planning and Review which indicated concerns with an offshore third party provider, relating to"substandard and inadequate record-keeping", "deliberate provision of falsified academic transcripts and advanced standing applications" and "lack of adherence to SCU course procedures". Southern Cross University addressed these matters and has ceased its agreement with this provider. <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theaustralian.com.au/higher-education/scu-may-have-broken-the-rules/story-e6frgcjx-1226344099384|title=Subscribe to The Australian - Newspaper home delivery, website, iPad, iPhone & Android apps|website=www.theaustralian.com.au}}</ref>


===Reported on-campus sexual assaults===


In 2017 SCU was reported as the sixth worst university in Australia for sexual assaults according to the [[Australian Human Rights Commission]]'s national survey on campus abuse.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/more-than-20-per-cent-of-students-at-australias-top-universities-sexually-harassed-by-staff-20170801-gxmwyz.html|title='We should all be shocked' leader of university with worst results comforts students|last=Bagshaw|first=Eryk|date=2 August 2017|work=The Sydney Morning Herald|access-date=2 August 2017|language=en-US}}</ref> Previously under a 2016 FOI request, SCU had said that between 2011 and 2016 there were only 7 officially reported cases of sexual assault, harassment or misconduct on campus, resulting in no expulsions and 2 suspensions.<ref name="foi_sexual_assault">{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/true-stories/full-list-of-universities-exposed-by-sexual-assault-investigation/news-story/f7c39dcacce8a9c839bc8b881172173b|title=Full list of universities exposed by sexual assault investigation|last=Funnell|first=Nina|date=10 October 2016|work=News Limited|accessdate=2 August 2017}}</ref>
