It certainly won't come out of any of the money I don't donate annually.

Absolute BS. She's a commie who was all in on DIE and CRT, and said she'd implement both despite state law, and should never be paid a penny.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

So what does that equate to? Two, three years salary? Or less?

I'm sure she's getting a big fat raise at her old/current position, too.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

According to the investigation by OGC, she was told at least twice that race was a factor in the process. A&M had to settle.

No one knows what she said was the truth or not. We all know this had nothing to do with her being a black woman. But McElroy sure did assemble the press to beat that drum.

When will all of the people involved in his hiring debacle be fired? They are incompetent and cost the university a lot of money. That includes Blanton with the cya letter too

Race was a factor in hiring her yes. That was the only factor.

Crazy but probably worth it to make it all go away. I assume part of the settlement is a non disclosure agreement on her part.

Since she does not believe in capitalism she should donate all to a charity not in her choosing

Outrageous.

We need a new legal system completely.

Allowing people to grift on this woke nonsense is despicable.

If our institution truly produced the leaders of character and conviction that we brag of… you'd think there'd be SOME evidence of it in at the administrative level.

so if she was offered the job due to her race, why does the school have to settle? sounds like they should pay the people that werent offered due to their race.

That should be paid by anyone who either approved of her hiring or did not speak out against it. Then they should be fired and lose their retirement benefits. The way we do contracts, be thankful we didn't give her a contract extension.

I find it quite notable that OGC's investigation timeline begins in May, 2023 - AFTER the initial offer to McElroy was already on the table.

Nothing about the review process of other potential candidates, what the expected qualifications were for the job, OR the individuals and/or determination factors that contributed to making the initial offer.

It seems to me if we're going to investigate, we should investigate and report on the ENTIRE hiring process of Ms. McElroy, not simply the last part.

Very curious, indeed.

No, as a proponent of DEI based hiring, she should have been happy her race was a consideration. Taking a settlement is typical leftist hypocrisy.

If it keeps a far left leaning, DEI activist out of the position, I'm fine with it. The hiring process was messed up but at the end of the day, if they can hire a dean that is neutral politicly or even better a little on the conservative side, it's money well spent.

Fix the oversite of the hiring process that caused this mess to begin with and move on. My only worry is they go back and hire someone just as bad as her anyways and all of this was for naught. The next hire will be where we see if A&M is indeed heading in the direction that most of us hope it is.

Nice try. You know darn well her offer was worsened and Bermudez told her on at least two occasions the push back was due to race.
