mail to BOG President Goodwin from a retired faculty member

I sent the email below by certified mail to Mr. Goodwin and by email to board members whose email addresses I could find.

Dear Mr. Goodwin:
As a former faculty member of West Virginia University (for 28 years), I am embarrased and dismayed by the actions of top officials at WVU in regards to the Heather Bresch scandal. To give the guilty persons a huge salary to return to their faculty positions as a "reward" for their actions is unconscionable. The salary is a policy of West Virginia, BUT: I believe that the offending officials satisfy the criteria for dismissal from the university set forth in Policy Document #2 of the Board of Governors, parts 12.1.1, 12.1.2 and 12.1.5, which say,
12.1.1 Demonstrated incompetence or dishonesty in the performance of professional duties, including but not limited to academic misconduct;
12.1.2 Conduct which directly or substantially impairs the individual's fulfillment of institutional responsibilities, in cluding but not limited to ... discriminatory practices;
12.1.5 Substantial and manifest neglect of duty.
The Board of Governors is required by its own policy document to bring the offending officials up on charges for dismissal.

Sincerely yours,

Sam B. Nadler, Jr.
