From: Lawrence Krauss Sent: Tuesday, April 3, 2018 7:01 AM To: jeffrey E. Cc: Lawrence Krauss Subject: Fwd: Allegations Well, this came in today, and this clarifies some =hings.. Particulary it is clear that this office is not really =ollowing any procedure and isn't out to deal with me in a =ay that respects my rights. (no surprise to you!). Statements =ike "include, but not limited to"? What the fuck =s that? Also, it seems clear that from the list of =E2.4oallegations' (and note they don't explain which =nes they are actually investigating), that the list is basically the =uzzfeed article.. so indeed they are not restricting themselves in at =east listing just university related ones (items 4 and 5.. and re 5, =hat the fuck? Who the fuck cares what an employee thinks about a =onor?) Anyway, it is clear to nancy =nd I that we need to bring Justin in, at least as an advisor before I =ave my meeting next tues.. I was going to consider bringing him in =epending upon what I heard there, but based on this, there are various =urisdictional issues, and respecting my rights issues that I need to be =uided on. (I plan to ask specific questions now during the =eetings next tues, but not give responses at the time). =nbsp; So, at this point I plan to =rite to her to ask her for some specifics (which I don't expect =er to agree to answer till we meet, but we will see), and contact =ustin to let him know I will pay his retainer. I don't =ant him accompanying me to the meeting on Tues, but I want to plug him =n the loop with me, and help me know what to ask, and how to be =repared to respond.... Just FYI.. so I guess I will take up your offer of =he $25K... I am in =ashville visiting Lilli so on central time, and will not be in a =osition to talk extensively tomorrow, but if you give me a good time, I =an call.. And you will be amused =hat the Student newspaper, the state press, had an opinion piece that =asically said the University shouldn't have put me on leave and =eacted so presumptuously.. so that was nice to see. =) Lawrence Begin forwarded message: From: Erin Ellison Subject: Allegations Date: April 2, 2018 at 4:08:35 PM CDT To: Lawrence Krauss Cc: Erin Ellison EFTA_R1_01600849 EFTA02483585 Resent-From: Good morning Dr. =rauss: The =urpose of this email is to provide you with notification of the =pecific allegations that have been raised against you during OEI'= investigation.
