Next, examine the effect of whistleblowing intentions on the implementation of good university governance. The population is Semarang State University employees by applying convenience sampling techniques. The method of data analysis uses IBM SPSS 22. The results of the study show that attitude influences on whistleblowing intentions. Subjective norms positively influence the intention to do whistleblowing. Whistleblowing intention has a significant positive effect on the implementation of good university governance. However, perceived control has no effect on whistleblowing intentions. Hence, it is necessary to provide incentives for reporters to increase whistleblowing intentions
