Mary Anne Nichols, a low-level clerk, embezzled almost $500,000 from the Student Services Division of the University of California at Santa Cruz. She wrote 202 checks to imaginary speakers for conducting non-existent workshops and then forged indorsements before depositing the checks in her own bank account. A teller at her bank finally noticed that the clerk had deposited eight university checks in a 10-day period. The Student Services Division had never been audited and had no budget or accounting oversight.
