Never-ending Story As UD anticipated, the long Ladner nightmare at American University is not over. Most divisions of the university have, like the faculty of the law school, now “voted to condemn the settlement, calling it a waste of university assets and a betrayal of the school's educational mission,” reports this morning’s Washington Post. Students are appalled. A couple of now-ex trustees call the deal by which the university has gotten Ladner to go away a “platinum parachute.” UD thinks AU should take a deep breath, read over the recent history of Boston University’s deal to get rid of Daniel Goldin, and accept the situation. |
