Congress Steps in at AU UD thanks Mr X for keeping her up to date on the Ladner ladeeda. He links to the latest Washington Post story, which notes that: In the days since the agreement on the departure deal, anger on campus has continued to mount. Hundreds of students have sent an e-mail to members of Congress asking for oversight of a board they said engaged in reckless behavior that could cost students and faculty and staff members millions of dollars. Congress seems willing to oblige: The Senate Finance Committee has asked for every document related to ousted American University president Benjamin Ladner's severance package and compensation and for the board's plans for an audit of all 11 years of his tenure. UD has no idea what implications this investigation might have for the severance package. |
