From comments accompanying a petition urging Marshall University to retain engineering professor Andrew Nichols, who has just pled guilty to an elaborate, years-long (2009-2011), tax fraud conspiracy.
I think there is a lot not known.
I think he was the scale goat for this mess.
[H]e was dragged into [legal issues] by crooked people.
He shouldn’t lose his job over something that happened years ago !!!
[He has remained] focused, positive, and effective … during this difficult time.
Not like he murdered anyone.
Marshall has no good professors in engineering and he is the best.
