Jeffrey.. Thanks very much for your =dvice.. We are not yet in the labor law phase.... nowhere near =hat yet.. We are in the OEI investigation phase, and I repeat =hey are tasked merely with deciding what, if any violations of =niversity policy they view as probably having occurred. =oreover, all she was doing was covering her bases.. She didn't =ndicate whether the allegations that were reported to the University =ere based on the University reaching out to individuals after the =uzzfeed story who then wrote to the University. There are a host =f questions that need to be answered. and wiggle room with questions at =r after meeting... Moreover, just because someone from Mongolia =omplains about me does not mean the University is empowered to =nvestigate that.. In any case, just FYI.. I am sending you the =ection of the ABOR regulations on Dismissal or Suspension of Tenured =acuity, so you will see it is a long process that extends way beyond =hat I am embarking on next week.

In any case, as a result, I am taking the following action =oday. I want to continue listen carefully to your advice, believe =t or not, but I need to feel I have a legal expert familiar with Title =X to talk with as well, and there is no perfect person.. but =ancy and I have decided to retain Justin, who, while perhaps too eager =o be combative at this stage, will work for me, and not vice versa, and =as extensive experience with university processes, including at =SU. His main interest is making the process fair, and if it is =ot, holding the University accountable after the fact. I think =hat meshes with my goal as well. I do feel much better about him than I =id about having Johnny's lawyer, which was delusional on my =art. Plus I will be much more critical of advice, as I will be bouncing =t off you as well.. I hate spending the money, but Nancy reminds =e that in the old days this is less than I would have received for a =ingle lecture.

So, once again, I understand your concerns.frustrations, =nowledge, recriminations, etc, but this is what I am going to do. =o, I am either going to waste $15K or get some useful payback for it, =nd I will either kindly accept your offer to let me waste your $25K, or =y $25K. If you feel sufficiently strongly that you don't =ant to follow through on what you so generously offered before, which =as to provide $25K for me to work with however I felt I wanted to do, =nd perhaps largely for our mental health if necessary, I will not =nbsp;of course hold it against you in any way. You have been so =enerous with your time and friendship, which in the end is so much more =mportant.
