## jeffrey

good meeting with the dean. i spoke about my responsibility, about feeling awful for the pressure, and my openness to doing whatever i could to help reduce the pressure on him, the university, and corporation. i mentioned that i had heard about pressure to fire me, and i wanted to do what i could to hold my job as i love harvard, and want to continue to contribute. he said that he had been explaining to all those who had asked about dismissal that harvard had followed their procedures, and the decision about the case was final. he said he was sticking to his decision. we repeatedly came back to the issue of what i could do, and he repeatedly supported my staying quiet. he understands that i am not in the lab doing research, and has conveyed this.

i had a thought: is there any way you might propose a meeting between me and one ore more of the board members that you know? i realize the odds are low here, but perhaps if some humanity was inserted into this, and then realized how crushed i am by all of this, that i am not sitting around at home having a great time and plowing ahead as if there were no sanctions, they would accept this.
