Platform: iMessage Timezone: UTC+0000 • L Lawrence 2018/10/10 Lawrence Good morning. L 04:17:04 pin I hope the dean has a sense of humor. , regarding your request to be emeritus. 04:17:41 pm Lawrence Me too. 04:18:09 pin Thank you for everything. L 04:18:34 pm Start off by saying thank you. I know this is not what you normally do. So I appreciate your effort. 05:18:44 pm Lawrence University responded in hardball. Sending you the email from the dean. L 09:38:15 pm EFTA01614055  2018/10/11 Lawrence Thanks Jeffrey. You do know how to handle people. 01:09:38 am Got an email from the dean which was a bit surprising. Forwarded to you. 01:09:59 am Heres one to watch. Many others already resolved with precedents set. Will make a list. John Doe alleges he was falsely accused by a male PhD student of sexual assault, and Virginia Tech denied him due process rights when it improperly suspended him. 04:49:51 pm https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2018/09/10/appeals-court-ruling-opens-door- boosted-due-process-rights INSIDE HIGHER ED TITLE IX 04:49:52 pm A recent federal court ruling about due process requirement for opportunity to cross examine. 04:49:52 pm http://www.deborahgordonlaw.com/ EFTA01614056  dgl 04:49:52 pm This is the lawyer who won the U of Michigan case. L 04:49:52 pm Not really relevant. . it is meant for accuser etc. but if we don't settle you can bring all and any action starting same day as hearing. 04:56:54 pm Lawrence Thanks. I am sorry. Let's see what happens today. L 04:57:44 pm The crazy idea that you in your words. Will DEMAND being allowed to keep your laptop. Is s0000 nuts. Given your precarious position . The age discrimination is a problem for them. And now they are aware. . both good and bad. Good that it might give them pause. As no older person has been charged before. Or bad as they can just delay signing now for 21 days. 05:00:15 pm Lawrence I was going to say that I thought the damage had already been done re the age discrimination thing because Justin talked to he about it and informed her of the law when he first spoke to her yesterday afternoon. Anyway we should have left that document till the morning when you had a chance to see it. Let's see what happens. I have mixed feelings if I want it to succeed. 05:02:49 pm https://www.insidehighered.cominews/2017/09/26/us-appeals-court-flnds-student- accused-sexual-assault-was-denied-due-process EFTA01614057  INSIDE HIGHER ED TITLE 05:13:21 pm Ruling from over one year ago on violation of rights during investigation that also included recommendations for improving due process. "failure to provide any form of confrontation of the accuser made the proceeding against John Doe fundamentally unfair," L 05:13:22 pin Lawrence Yes. That is probably a student. 05:14:01 pm You have a contract clause • Not sure that affects procedure at OEI. 05:14:47 pm EFTA01614058  Please call. L 08:24:04 pin 2018/10/12 Sign All tomorrow but do not give them the letter of resignation. Start writing it and in it layout your version of events. Spurious false claims , s process that was biased silly lacked adult supervision etc . When a request comes they will or you will release it 02:53:51 am Lawrence Brilliant. L 03:00:48 am Include you have given me the choice of resigning or being dismissed with a time limit of 2 hrs 03:02:27 am Lawrence Not sure about that last one. I think I want to suggest that retiring is something I wanted. But maybe I can weave that in anyway since I suggested it in conciliation. L 03:12:21 am The University has agreed to accept the resignation of professor Lawrence Krauss effective May 29 2019. 03:23:25 am Lawrence Retirement. Not resignation. :) L 03:32:49 am EFTA01614059  Yes , sorry, very brief. So that that the letter of retirement will not be asked for right away 03:33:38 am Lawrence Contract says letter is required with contract. L 03:34:26 am You can make the agreed statement press release . School newspaper buzz feed. Etc . Then somtime later. pow 03:48:45 am Lawrence Hmm. 03:54:03 am Worried that if they get letter before they sign they won't sign. So will need to be two letters as you say. L 03:57:47 am You both sign contract tomorrow and make joint statement. Do not give letter. Make excuses. Lets see 04:01:14 am Lawrence Ok. Working on my statement. 04:07:17 am EFTA01614060  Hi. I think my press statement may almost be Jeffrey level smart. If they say nothing in response I win. And if they respond it will most likely be disparaging but will establish precedent that release of disparaging facts ok. :). You may be rubbing off? Heard nothing back yet btw. Working on finalizing letter based on draft I sent. 03:29:07 pm Talk? 08:33:34 pin Hang on. Confirming proposed changes with Justin before I send. That way you will have last word. Should be 10 min or so. L 09:02:01 pm K 09:03:07 pm I think we might add that the university is to provide a form letter to be signed by the donor that is acceptable to them. It should be delivered no later than 1 week after signing. 10:38:42 pm Lawrence Good idea. 10:39:31 pm It's in her hands at the moment. :) I sent draft of retirement letter. Am walking dog in sun now. tt- L 10:44:44 pin EFTA01614061  I would send a signed copy of the contract signed by both you and Justin. TODAY. Saying in good faith you have met their deadline. If there are changes to be made you are amenable. DO NOT think they will agree to Monday without a fight 10:49:15 pm Lawrence I want to get this done today if I can. I agree that we should send in our signed copy today if they do not get back to us. L 10:50:21 pm Cover letter says that as a sign of good faith. Etc . My view is that you should sign their copy as well 10:51:46 pm Lawrence We are ready. If haven't heard back in 30 or so will do. 10:58:10 pm We heard back they are working on it and have given us extension. They may send us something tonight but don't expect us to sign tonight. We agreed we can communicate on the weekend as well if necessary.
