From the NC NewsObserver here. They got the records through a public records request. I wonder how much Kevin Reed would charge for a similar request to UO. It seems like, despite his well-paid advisors, Schill simply got outmaneuvered: Ramogi Huma, executive director of the National Collegiate Players Association, said Schill’s…
10/5/2019 update: Ducks play UCLA this evening, so maybe Rob Mullens will finally collect the $20K he gave Chip a free pass on back in 2013: 10/30/2018 update: I’ve always had a soft spot for Kelly, because he had the sense of humor to hide his $25K payoff to Willie…

Update: UO’s response to Prof Allen’s letter is here. Update: At some point a rational university president with UO’s best interests in mind would tell General Counsel Kevin Reed to swallow his ego, stop trying to overcompensate for his Bowl of Dicks mistakes by blowing tuition money on Barran Liebman’s…

The Eugene Weekly’s Bob Keefer pans the Knight Campus’s still under-construction “bridge to nowhere”, here. While I agree it’s not up to the architectural excellence of, say, the Hayward Field Phallus, it will provide the perfect location for students and union members to hang protest banners from – with none…
The Johnson Hall lobby has been the primo spot for sit-ins since Nam, Workers Rights, and Dana Altman’s players rape allegations. My favorite was the UO Divest campaign, where emotions ran so high the protestors refused the chocolate Pres Schill brought them. Then Kevin Reed had to ruin the good…
I was born in the town of Chaplin, Connecticut. New England towns are famous for their Town Hall form of governance. The town Selectmen (now mostly Selectwomen) make proposals about the budget, and then everyone – or every property-tax paying resident who cares – meets, discusses, and votes about the…

That would be the University of Texas at San Antonio, and they were released by their Provost, Kimberly Espy. Here at UO, interim HR director Missy Matella spoke to the general membership meeting of the faculty union about UO’s pay equity study tonight. Several faculty asked about why the administration had…
Two interesting processes are coming to a head soon. First is the lawsuit by Prof Jennifer Freyd alleging UO underpaid her for years, despite the pleas of her department head to the CAS associate dean, and the conclusions of an external review committee.
