Not everyone has submitted resignation

Thursday October 29, 2009
 

Sunday's headline indicated that with Chancellor Richard Herman's resignation all "ambiguity" had been removed from the politicized admissions scandal. Not so.

All the original players in this sorry little drama at the University of Illinois have resigned except two trustees from Chicago, James Montgomery and Frances Carroll. How come? Is there something about them that gives them immunity? If so, why?

This debacle will end up costing us taxpayers a bundle of money as the lawsuits are filed, I should think that all those involved should share equally in the consequences, but apparently not. The ambiguity remains.
