Death in a Tenured Position

Assisted suicide expert and criminology instructor Russel Ogden hasn’t been seen at scandal-plagued Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) since 2008…

Mr. Ogden is … living in the Vancouver area. What’s more, he’s still drawing his KPU salary. The paycheques have never stopped coming, even though the criminologist hasn’t taught a single course at the university in six years.

According to public records, he received $87,910 from KPU in the last fiscal year. For what services, the school administration refuses to say.

    If he loses the job, can I apply?

  2. Michael Tinkler Says:

    Wait – I want more details! He is my new role model!

    I mean ANYONE can show up and do a shoddy job, but it takes inspiration to disappear and continue to collect checks.

    Michael: While attending assisted suicides.

  4. Polish Peter Says:

    I think KPU is quite happy not to have him show up on campus and is willing to tolerate some rumbles of outrage as the price.

  5. Derek Says:

    Russ Ogden, he lives in Vancouver
    Sucks up KPU’s cash like a Hoover
    What’s he do for that dough?
    To hell if I know.
    But it’s truly a killer maneuver.

  6. Margaret Soltan Says:

    Derek: Excellent. Hard to rhyme on Vancouver.
