desires at home. I do appreciate your =ffer of the $25K if necessary.

Statements like "include, but=not limited to"? What the fuck is that? Also, it seems=clear that from the list of
'allegations' (and note they d=n't explain which ones they are actually investigating), that the =ist is basically the

Anyway, it is clear to nancy and=l that we need to bring Justin in, at least as an advisor before I
have my=meeting next tues.. I was going to consider bringing him in depending upon=what I heard there, but based on
this, there are various jurisdictional is=ues, and respecting my rights issues that I need to be guided on. =C240(l plan to
ask specific questions now during the meetings next tues, =ut not give responses at the time).
So, at=this point I plan to write to her to ask her for some specifics (which I d=n't expect her to
agree to answer till we meet, but we will see), =nd contact Justin to let him know I will pay his retainer. I don40=80Qt
want him accompanying me to the meeting on Tues, but I want to plug=him in the loop with me, and help me know
what to ask, and how to be prepa=ed to respond....
Just FYI.. so I gue=s I will take up your offer of the $25K...
I am in Nashville visiting Lilli so on central time, and will not be=in a position to talk extensively
tomorrow, but if you give me a good time= I can call..
And you will be amused that the Stu=ent newspaper, the state press, had an opinion piece that
basically said t=e University shouldn't have put me on leave and reacted so presump=uously.. so that was nice to see.:)
